Love, Pray, Serve: Being An Intercessory Missionary Sunday October 26th 12-2:30 Mornhinweg Center For Lay Ministers, One on One Prayer Ministers, and those interested in a life of prayer and ministry in Christ’s Name. Lunch will be served! Mission of the Month Wink and Glyn Kelso are our supported missionaries who have served throughout many regions of the world: Asia, Thailand, Singapore, Turkey, Syria, Lebanon, Israel, Morocco, India, Nepal, Philippines, Mexico, Peru, United Kingdom, Hungary, Romania and many others. While being missionaries, they provide both encouragement and other various resources (both spiritual and financial) to many other missionaries. For example, they support over 300 missionaries in Thailand. Their ministry helps both the missionaries and the indigenous people they serve, ensuring that nations are discipled too, the lost evangelized, churches are started, and leaders are equipped and served. They network with other Kingdom-minded ministries in the pursuit of a global revival and awakening and the Great Commission Fulfilled. Examples of this are: * SOS Getaways- hosting and funding retreats for missionaries on the field * Corporate worship, intercession, Ladies ministry * Indigenous leadership training, village outreaches * Rescuing women from sexual abuse and trafficking * Prayer ministry, counseling and mediation * Special outreaches and short-term group projects * Networking, team-building and mentoring * New music for the Kingdom (Wink is currently in the process of recording a new CD) * Missions/Worship/Intercession ministry in the U.S. As you can see, they have a very broad spectrum of outreach and needs. Please continue to pray for their safety and the many countries throughout the world to have openness for the spreading of God’s Word. Through First Protestant”s continuous support, God’s love has been felt throughout the world.
