GREAT COMMISSION DAY 2019: We're Sending!
Back in November, John Stumbo issued a challenge to U.S. church leaders to rally together and send 60 new international workers who were called by God, vetted, prepared, and eager to take the gospel where little to no access yet exists. And the Alliance family responded through the 2018 Alliance Year-End Offering-more than doubling what was received from the previous year's offering and conveying the clear message: WE WILL SEND! With this bold assurance, the C&MA Board of Directors, at its February meeting, approved 50 of these 60 workers to go.
Now we have an opportunity to come together once again to make sure all 60 new workers are approved and sent to live and work among the world's least reached and most over-looked. In April, Alliance churches will receive the Great Commission (GC) Day Offering materials, themed We're Sending.
Will you encourage your congregation to continue the momentum?
