Refreshed


Charm'n with Charmin

We had a great Missions Weekend last week with 13 of our missionaries visiting with us. James and our Missions Committee did a great job! I especially enjoyed the Potluck on Saturday evening, complete with my favorite reality show, Missionary Fear Factor!

We watched our missionaries pull off amazing feats. They told stories, shared about their ministry, communicated without using words, and acted out Bible stories using toilet paper! Take a guess at what Bible story Bob Mackey and the Bejjani's acted out for us. You can click on their picture above to see a slideshow of other costumes!

Throughout the weekend our missionaries exhibited a genuine heart for God, creativity, flexibility, and a sense of humor. We were refreshed by their presence with us this past week.

Would you like to help return the blessing to our missionaries? Our Barnabas Ministry seeks to do just that through personal letters, gifts, prayers and phone calls to each of our missionaries. You can select a missionary that you want to support and then partner with a team of others from New Covenant to support them. Contact Pastor James at james.wartian@newcovenantbible.org for more information. You can also visit our website to learn more about those missionaries we support.

Take time to pass on the blessings you have received. God will reward you and you will be refreshed.

Your love has given me great joy and encouragement, because you, brother, have refreshed the hearts of the saints. Philemon 1:7
