I will search for the lost and bring back the strays. I will bind up the injured and strengthen the weak.
--Ezekiel 34:16
This is the theme verse of the Downtown Church of Christ, where we had a very encouraging interview last weekend. This church has a real heart for evangelism and demonstrating love to those in need, and are well ahead of us in the arena of holistic ministry--ministering to the entire person.
We are on the same page theologically and methodologically with the church, as well as their missions policy. Following our presentation, we had a good dialogue with the committee, and were told that our budget looked reasonable. They were encouraged that we already had a large portion of our funding raised, and informed us that we would hear back from them within a month.
(Incidentally, we will be back in Searcy, AR in a month for a missionary training workshop...we hope to meet with the committee again then.)
We are greatly encouraged, hopefully that we can represent this great church on the mission field. We are humbled that they are considering us, but we are thankful to serve a God who gives us more than we can ask for or imagine!!!
