During today's worship service missionaries from Kiev shared what God is doing in their lives as they seek to reach others with the love of Christ. These C&MA missionaries have a heart for God and have walked through an open door into the Ukraine. How awesome it is to be a part of the team!
Thank you for taking the plunge this week and making a Faith Promise. Let me remind you of a three things. First, the total amount of our church's Faith Promise has been forwarded on to the National Office to help them plan the missions strategy for the coming year. Second, to give to the Great Commission Fund you simply make a check out to Nashwauk Alliance and put "GCF" in the memo field. We'll forward it on. Alternatively, you can give through the national website. Third, the amount you promised and the fulfilling of that Faith Promise is between you and Jesus. We won't be sending reminders or barrel-chested "collectors" after you. Keeping your Faith Promise should be a fun adventure that you take hand in hand with the Lord.
As Missions Conference ends, let us recommit ourselves to being a vital part of the team that takes the gospel to our neighborhood and to every neighborhood around the world. Let us continually remind ourselves that the greatest thing we can do is nudge someone closer to Jesus. Whether a person has known Jesus a long time or is far from him, they can use gentle encouragement to take a step closer to him. May that encouragement come from us.
