EACH MONTH OUR LITERATURE FOCUSES ON 2 -4 MISSIONARIES IN THE USA OR AROUND THE WORLD. WE HAVE FUN ACTIVITIES WHILE WE LEARN ABOUT MISSIONS. IN OUR MAGAZINES WE ALSO MEET MK’S ( “MISSIONARY KIDS” ). THEY LIST SPECIFIC PRAYER REQUESTS FOR THEMSELVES AND THEIR PARENTS’ MINISTRY. EMAIL ADDRESSES ARE PROVIDED AND WE GET REPLIES BACK FROM THE MK’S.
GO FORWARD
AS A GA, I WILL DO MY BEST TO LIVE A MISSIONS LIFESTYLE THAT HONORS GOD BY: LEARNING ABOUT MISSIONS, PRAYING FOR MISSIONS, GIVING TO MISSIONS, DOING MISSIONS AND PARTICIPATING IN THE WORK OF THE CHURCH.
