This week's newsletter from Karen

To the Hillcrest Baptist Church Family - On behalf of the Malawi Mission Team, a huge “Thank You” for supporting us with your prayers, donations, time, and funds. The trip could not have happened without each one of you.

To the Malawi Mission Team - I do not have the depth of vocabulary to express to each of you how much participating on this team with you has changed my life. You were truly an amazing group and I learned so much about the awesomeness of our God by watching you serve Him.

To the Children’s Ministry Leadership Team – Although I wish you all could have been with us, it was encouraging and comforting to know that the ministry was in excellent hands while we were away. You are my heroes.

To the Hillcrest Baptist Church Staff – From the first day we began discussing the possibility of Hillcrest being a part of this mission effort, you were behind it 100%. I am blessed to serve alongside each one of you.

To the missionaries in the Zambezi cluster and their families – Thank you for the opportunity to serve you. We will continue our service to you stateside with our prayers and finances so you can continue the work God has called you to do.

“Just as a body, though one, has many parts, but all its many parts form one body, so it is with Christ. For we were all baptized by one Spirit so as to form one body—whether Jews or Gentiles, slave or free—and we were all given the one Spirit to drink. Even so the body is not made up of one part but of many.”
(1 Corinthians 12:12-14; NIV)

“God has put the body together, giving greater honor to the parts that lacked it, so that there should be no division in the body, but that its parts should have equal concern for each other. If one part suffers, every part suffers with it; if one part is honored, every part rejoices with it.”
(1 Corinthians 12:24b-26; NIV)
