PRAYER FOCUS
PRAY FOR VOLUNTEER CROSS-CULTURAL SERVANT LEARNING EXPERIENCES


In a recent meeting with Gordon Sommers, Interim Executive Director of the Board of World Mission, we discussed the preparing and sending of work crews into the field. I explained that a number of crews are scheduled for work this summer. We also discussed plans for future work in Jamaica and Labrador.

Since all of this work needs immediate attention, I suggested that a coordinator be appointed for this work in the absence of staff at the Board at this time. Gordon asked that I consider being the coordinator until decisions are made regarding permanent staff. I agreed to assume these responsibilities, with God’s leading.

I believe in my heart that this is a crucial time for us as a church. We have stopped into a time that has made us stop and think about what we truly believe in our hearts as truth. As we continue to walk the path He had laid before us, let us be found ever faithful to His calling. I ask for your prayers as I seek to do His will, that the Body will continue to be built up, and that His name will be glorified.

All requests and information for this work will continue to flow through the Mission Education Office, P.O. Drawer Y, Salem Station, Winston-Salem, NC 27108. Please mark them to the attention of Mark Ebert or Sheila Beaman. You may also use the following phone numbers and e-mail addresses: Mark – 336.764-5486, e-mail tebert@bellsouth.net/.  Sheila – 336-773-1732, e-mail sbeaman@mcsp.org.

May God bless the work of the Church in its walk in this world so that lost souls would be saved and that the Gospel of Jesus would be preached to the ends of the earth.
