Missionaries arriving today!!!

Today is a great day for Grace Church, we have missionaries arriving for a weekend fellowship and sharing.  I thank God that I'm a part of a church that not only embraces other cultures, but supports their efforts in ministering to the lost.  It's so comforting to live in a nation that doesn't openly persecute a person for following Jesus.  Other countries do not operate that way, so God uses chosen people to work in high risk conditions to minister salvation unto the people.  This weekend we have 4 amazing men and women with us that operate in these turbulent environments.  I'm really excited that many of our young people will be able to meet and greet these heroes of faith.  Talk about role models...

Take a moment to think and pray about global christianity.  Let the Lord guide you and your children in discussions about what it means to be a christian lands where christians are persecuted.  The more we pray about these things, the more "real" they become in our lives and the more opportunity God has to bless them.
