Lauderdale, Florida.  More than 300 NCU alumni and friends attended.  Harold Clayton, South Florida Chapter President, presided over the event.  He welcomed members of the audience from many states in the US, the Bahamas and Jamaica and outlined the day's activities.

He encouraged the audience to stay strong in their faith because, as was the case with the 3 Hebrew boys, God is with us in the flames.
