In the second year of the COVID pandemic, with the lockdown restrictions making it impossible to gather in person for our advances, we offered an online advance on a topic that was very needed – A Merry Heart Doeth Good Like a Medicine. It turned out to be a groundbreaking event for various reasons, beginning with reaching more people than any previous event. Participants totaled 665 believers across 27 U.S. states and territories and 14 countries. It was also the first event at which almost 60% of the participants came from outside of our “home area” of New Jersey, New York and Connecticut, with a third coming from outside of the U.S. And, although we normally do simultaneous translations of Advance sessions into Spanish, this was the first time we had a leader from another country teach in Spanish and have it translated simultaneously into English for the other participants. All of the teachers were present together at the Fellowlaborer house with the exception of Luis Mero who taught from Ecuador. Coming at a crucial moment, the teachings resulted in a great blessing to people in many places and increased outreach in the months that followed.
