From President Karen Pederson
Love for the Kingdom of God
I hope the March-April Edition of WMF E-News gives you a clearer picture of our WMF activities in World Missions. Our stated purpose is to “awaken and deepen interest in and love for the Kingdom of God at home and abroad, sharing the great missionary enterprise of the Christian church”.
We’re passing on your gifts to World Missions and we are thankful to hear about the work in India, Brazil and Paraguay:
Kristi Nelson wrote about her time in India with her husband, who’s a director on World Mission’s board and World Mission Director Earl Korhonen and his wife Joan.
Heidi Nelson, the wife of Jon Nelson our Journey Mission director. Heidi joined Jon on the Brazil trip with their 4 kids! Now that’s an adventure we get to see and read about.
WMF also helped finance Shelby Greven and Kelly Greven as missionary assistants to Paraguay and Brazil so be sure to see and read about their experiences in this edition.
I’m also being blessed and challenged by the WMF study of Light in John. In April’s lesson, the Light that Enlightens we’ll study the nobleman who sees and believes. I’m ready to study the true Light that enlightens every man from John 1:9.
I pray you’re being drawn closer to Jesus during this time of Lent and ready to celebrate the Resurrection of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ saying with Christians around the world, He is Risen Indeed!!
