Evangelical Friends Mission 2020 Easter Offering “Together to the Ends of the Earth”
EFM’s Executive Director Dan Cammack wrote about this year’s offering saying, “The purpose and passion is to fuel a worldwide movement of people who seek first the kingdom of God, planting churches that live and die to carry out the Great commission in the spirit of the Great Commandment. LET’S GO TOGETHER TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH!” You can access Dan’s letter and more information about the 2020 Easter Offering at www.friendsmission.com/easteroffering.
Although we cannot meet together at this time, we can still prayerfully give to this year’s Easter Offering. You can mail your offering directly to EFM, P.O. Box 771139 Wichita, KS 67277.
Postponed Date for Friends Women Spring Rally
In keeping with the group gathering restrictions being extended through April, the Spring Rally is now projected for the later half of May or early June if a satisfactory date can be determined.
We look forward to hearing from Nancy Thomas who has served with her husband, Hal, among the Bolivian Aymara people since 1972. Her expertise was theological education and training of aspiring local writers. She will share from these experiences and the recently completed five year project of research and writing of the NWYM-Bolivian Friends Church story in the context of the rally theme “Beyond Fear…the next step – Be Strong and Courageous” (Deut. 31:6&8) Nancy is also published poet and will read for us one or tow of her original works. Her husband, Hal, will present a brief update report of the status of NWYM’s Men’s matching fund cooperation with the Bolivia Friends Mission program.
