April 2016 Women On Mission
The Annie Armstrong Easter Offering offers our church a chance to support the work of our 5,600 missionaries as they plant churches in the U.S.A., Canada and their territories. If you have not made your gift, please prayerfully consider what God would have you give.
Here is and excerpt from an article by Bill Tinsley—
Worldwide, we are witnessing the largest growth in the number of Jesus followers in history. In China, some estimate that more than 30,000 new believers are baptized every day. The number of believers in Africa grew from 9 million to 360 million in the last century. More Muslims have come to faith in Christ in the last two decades than at any other time in history. Churches, what they look like and how they function, are changing while the number of Jesus followers is growing.
Women on Mission will meet Monday, April 11 at 6:00 p.m. at the home of Kathleen Qualkenbush. All our ladies are invited to join us for study, prayer and fellowship.
We are still collecting stocking caps for the International Seafarer’s Center on Lake Michigan. Some stores have these on clearance. If you can find caps that are heavy, we would be glad to receive them, but I emphasize that they need to be thick and warm in order to be of use. They may be left in the Grace classroom or see Martha Russell.
