This Christmas season, sow the seeds of hope

Dear friend,

My heart is full of gratitude. I know that your prayers, encouragement, and partnership are the fuel that keeps Eastern Mennonite Missions (EMM) moving forward. We are constantly reminded that the incredible work being done around the globe is not just our work, but a collective effort made possible by faithful people like you. Thank you for being part of the important work of spreading the gospel!

I am equally grateful for the many cross-cultural workers, staff, board members, and volunteers who bring EMM’s mission into focus through specific tasks that share the good news of Jesus. This past year, EMM workers and volunteers engaged in 29 countries with 12 unreached people groups.

But the need remains vast. Right now, more than 3 billion people still don’t have access to the gospel or proximity to a follower of Jesus who can share this good news with them. Jesus says, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few,” (Matthew 9:37). These realities compel us to keep going.

Your financial partnership doesn’t just fund a single project; it fuels our Impact Fund. This is the critical support system that allows our work to flourish by providing:

  • Training and discipleship for new workers to be raised up and sent.
  • Administrative support and well-being care for long-term workers.
  • Grants to our church partners around the world.
  • A rapidly growing Advance program that disciples and sends young people into short-term mission with seasoned workers.

Would you prayerfully consider making a gift today to sustain this life-changing momentum? To give today, you can visit EMM.ORG/GIVE. Thank you again for being a vital member of the EMM family. We are deeply grateful for your trust, your prayers, and your commitment to the Great Commission.

With heartfelt gratitude and in Christ’s service,
Dr. Marvin Lorenzana
President

 

P.S. Jesus commanded us to go (Matthew 28). I know we can’t all go, but your contribution spreads the good news of Jesus through many who are prepared and willing to go. Please give as the Lord leads.
