UPDATES - JANUARY 2024THANK YOU
Thank you for your support of the work of the Board of World Mission. Your generous gift for the “Blessings Flow” clean water project helps us continue to make a difference in the lives of our Moravian brothers and sisters and their communities. As the Moravian Church continues to grow each year, and new prospective mission areas are identified, we know that we could not be effective as we are without your support. Thank you for helping us to be faithful to our commitments to the Great Commandment and the Great Commission! BWM 2024 Watchword Are any among you suffering? They should pray. Are any cheerful? They should sing songs of praise. James 5:13 Blessed name! the rock on which we build, our shield and resting place, our never-failing comfort, filled with blessings of his grace. O Jesus, Shepherd, Guardian, Friend, our Prophet, Priest, and King, our Lord, our Life, our Way, our End, accept the praise we bring. (487) For centuries, Moravians have had a tradition of choosing daily watchwords that are printed in our Daily Textbook and used for daily devotions. Many Moravians also chose watchwords for the year, which is generally done around the new year. Watchwords are scripture texts, randomly selected, that invite us to reflect on how God might be guiding and leading us. For 2024, the Watchword chosen to lead and guide the Board of World Mission staff invites us to pray in times of suffering and sing songs of praise when there is joy. Right now, the BWM staff is seeking to provide clean water where there has been consistent flooding in Honduras, purchasing medical debt to eliminate this burden for families in the US and Honduras who cannot pay, and providing stipends for teachers in Ukraine as the war continues. We are also singing songs of praise for the outpouring of support for these projects from all over the US and Canada. Your giving allows the Board of World Mission to be an answer to the prayers of those who are suffering and to join them in singing songs of praise for God’s never-ending love. |
CLEANSING WATERS - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
Additional volunteers are needed for our Cleansing Waters ministry. We have had some resignations and could use a few more volunteers.
When we have clients, two volunteers meet them at a laundromat and provide them with detergent, dryer sheets, etc. and plug the machines with quarters.
Please contact Elaine Voight at 715-421-9389 or the church office if you are interested in helping out.
