As most of you know, each month we are highlighting a different local or global missionary. Whatever offerings come in through the colored envelopes go directly to the missionary. Our best month so far was almost $3000. You can also give to the missionary of the month through the website.
This Sunday, being the last Sunday in June, will be the last opportunity to give to Joel and Adrienne. They are presently serving in Mozambique, one of the poorest countries in Africa. Joel and his wife do a variety of things to advance the Gospel but one of Joel's specialities is using soccer to build relationships and teach about Jesus. They have been serving as missionaries probably close to 20 years. I met Joel when he was a teen many years ago and have followed him all these many years and have watched him grow into a man of God pouring his life out for others.
Please consider giving an offering to Joel and Adrienne. As I often remind us if everyone does what they can our collective generosity can make a huge impact. I already have my check written out and ready to bring in Sunday. Follow me in this for the sake of advancing the Gospel in this difficult mission field.
