Women On Mission - November 2021
Travel to the City of 100 Spires
Our International Mission Study is Wednesday December 1 at 12:00 pm following a lunch in the fellowship hall. We will learn how the gospel is being shared in Prague, Czech Republic, known as the City of 100 Spires. Some may recall that our church members Mark and Vesta Sauter served there for several years as missionaries, beginning in 1997, working with the deaf. They were the first missionaries to the deaf commissioned by the SBC. They have since served in Asia and continue to lead a global team of both hearing and deaf. Missionaries who are sharing the gospel with the deaf around the world.
As we approach the end of this calendar year, I wanted to remind our members, as well as, inform the newer ones about our World Mission Club. This is an opportunity to give to missions on a weekly, bi-weekly or monthly basis. This is collected throughout the year and distributed at the end of the year, as follows:
Lottie Moon Christmas Offering 51.6%
Annie Armstrong Easter Offering 19.6%
Life Change Central (Oakhill Ministries) 10.0%
State Missions Offering 10.0%
State Camp Offering 8.8%
Our Goal for 2021 is $40,000
If you are not currently giving in this systematic way, please consider doing so in 2022. Boxed envelopes are provided by the church. You can designate World Missions Offering on your envelope (this is over and above our tithes). In addition, a special offering is taken for Lottie Moon Christmas Offering and Annie Armstrong Easter Offering which is added to the club receipts at the end of the year. World Hunger Offering is a separate offering taken in the summer.
The Evansville Rescue Mission has asked us to collect macaroni and cheese for their Gobbler Gathering Thanksgiving Baskets. Our goal is 900 boxes! Deadline is Sunday, November 14th.
Women on Mission will meet November 4th at 1:00 pm in the Grace classroom. All ladies are invited to join us.
