Pray…Support… Give

Frequently throughout the business session of District Conference, the message was shared to pray, to support, to give in response to a variety of ministries in which we are involved. The emerging ministries covet your prayers, appreciate your support, and offered a persuasive need for funding. The Leadership Team realized the importance of prayer, needs the support of congregations and individuals, and is better able to serve and do ministry with financial gifts. Denominational ministries are sustained through prayer, support from human resources, and monetary gifts. Praying, supporting, and giving are less about need and more about opportunity. To pray, to support, and to give are opportunities to share in the grace, mercy, love, and justice of God. These ways are opportunities to be the hands and feet of Jesus, and power of the Holy Spirit’s peace, in a world and at a time that will be blessed profoundly with well supported and resourced ministries. So, please consider how you can contribute to strengthen the ministry and work we do together. Your contributions of prayer, support, and money help to ensure disaster response efforts, sustain emerging ministries, enable mission and mortar grants, encourage congregational vitality, open doors for Brethren influence worldwide, support staff whose work gives direction to teams and congregations, and so much more. Consider your ability to participate in these exciting possibilities.
