Dulin’s Grove and Foreign Missions

Dulin’s Grove,

As you know, we began our three-week Penny Crusade Sunday. This fundraiser supports the foreign missions endeavors of our denomination. During these three weeks we will be studying what the Bible has to say about foreign missions. You can read a recap of Sunday’s sermon here. This Sunday, we’ll look at the Biblical strategy for obeying the great commission.

A big part of this year’s Penny Crusade is the announcement that we are going on a short-term foreign mission trip in the not-so-distant future. Right now, we are in the preliminary planning phase.

What you need to know:

– The purpose of this trip is not to build a building, but to build people.
– We will be telling people about Jesus and training people to make disciples.
– We’ll lay out the details of the trip this fall.
– We expect the trip to take place in 2014.
– We are planning the trip in cooperation with the world outreach department of our denominational headquarters, led by Jeff Walsh.
– We’re not sure where we’re going yet, but Africa is the front-runner right now, as this fits well with the department’s overall strategy.

What you need to do:

Pray for direction and guidance for us as a church as we move forward with these plans.
– Pray about your involvement.
– Save money.

Excited about what’s ahead,
Pastor Matt
