We are in a “scattered mode” as summer is
in full swing and our people are traveling everywhere. It is always
interesting to me to hear where all our people have been, or are going.
Several of our members’ jobs take them to various parts of the country
and the world on a pretty regular basis. Vacation travel plans take
others to many destinations. Please be in prayer for those traveling.
One of our own who will be traveling this week is Anna Grace Dickard.
She leaves at the end of this week to begin her journey, which will
include some stops here in the US for training, then on to the Rift
Valley Academy in Kijabe, Kenya to begin her 2 year term of service as a
house mother. The Rift Valley Academy provides education for missionary
children throughout Africa. Anna Grace was a student there as she grew
up in Africa, where her parents are IMB missionaries. Rift Valley
Academy is owned and operated by African Inland Missions, but many of
our International Mission Board missionary children go there. Pray for
Anna Grace as she makes this journey and for her ministry there.
Your giving is a major factor in her being able to do this ministry. The
Mission Team, using a portion of your undesignated offerings that goes
to missions, will be providing about one half of her financial needs for
the next two years. Thank you for your faithful giving. Just over 10%
of everything you give through the budget offerings each week goes to
fund missions.
