Serving in Missions
SIM's strategy for overseas missions is to connect the church here with needy communities around the world. What are you doing to fulfill the Great Commission?
Connect!
Imagine your church being able to engage in its mission calling, becoming equipped by an experienced partner, and through that partner effectively connecting to dozens of locations around the world where the Gospel is going forth. Then imagine the positive impact such a connection could have on your congregation and on the people to whom you minister. Can you see the possibilities?
Invest!
Missions begins with someone like you! Someone who wants to make a difference in this world. Someone who pauses 10 minutes to pray. Someone who writes a $25 check. Someone who spends a week of vacation serving in a developing country.
No investment is too small. Nor is it very hard. Could your investment make a difference? You bet!
Go!
God has made you unique and has something very important for you to do. Missionaries are ordinary people called and equipped by an extraordinary God. Can you imagine the lives that could change if you are willing to go?
