July Foreign Mission Monthly News

Endeavoring to obey the Word of our Lord...Go ye into all the lands and preach the Gospel to every creature.

Come join us!

"Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen." Matthew 28:19-20

Have you considered that your interest in reading this report each month or that your commitment to pray and support the Foreign Mission may also be God's way of prompting you to come on a trip? We would love to have you come!

There are many things we do in the field to share the salvation of Jesus: preaching, teaching, praying, singing, helping... There are ways we all can serve! If you feel God's call don't let a feeling of inadequacy stop you! Remember...God doesn't always call the equipped but he always will equip the called!

If you want to know more about coming on a trip in the future, check out the Upcoming Events section below and contact the FM Administrator today! foreignmission@comcast.net.

Word from the field:

God's Peace.

Thank you,

Yours in His service,
Pastor K (India)
