Oldiesmann: I'm not aware of any Jenny. Not sure why activity has died down on this site so much though 2023-06-12, 00:06:36

JennyW: Also, does anyone know other photo sharing sites that are Christian? 2023-05-16, 08:47:03

JennyW: Hello Everyone! I really miss activity on this site. I've been discouraged by photography sites where you have to sort through so much explicit content in order to see photos that truly glorify God. I'd love to see this site pick up again. 2023-05-16, 08:46:36

Carol: Thankful:  Don is home from hospital.  I found him unconscious with head outside on the floor and the rest was in the shower.  At the same moment, one son was walking through the front door to visit.  Two fire trucks came racing in and they took over After 2021-12-29, 22:01:26

Missionary Efforts

Hello everyone.  On the first Sunday of each month I present a missionary message at our church's Sunday School.  Our church, and many others, support a number of missionaries, but a lot of our past emphasis has been on saving the lost in other countries.  This year I am focusing on missionary efforts in North America, primarily because I feel it is a neglected mission field.  I generally introduce our congregation to a mission group or organization that few have heard about, but are hard at work in our backyard.  Some of the recent ones have included Village Missions, Steer Inc., Missionary Aircraft Repair Center (MARC).  If I learn about an isolated individual missionary who may not have the backing of a sponsor organization, I speak about the great things God is doing through him/her.  Personally, I really like these kinds of stories because they encourage us that one person, working with Christ's guidance, can make a difference.  I don't often know who or what I am going to present until the evening before, but the Lord generally guides me to a topic as I need it.  Because I felt guided to the CP site, I thought I might ask you folks for a few suggested missionary efforts that you know of that could make for a compelling presentation.  Any direction you can offer will be appreciated, and I am looking forward to learn about what the Lord is doing in your locale.  Thanks much.  Ken

I know this is an old post but this is what I'm looking for. My wife and I are missionaries with Athletes in Action and are really in the process of raising our support to become full-time missionaries.
