Missions Minute
Remember those who are in prison, as though in prison with them, and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body. (Hebrews 13:3, ESV)
We were reminded during our missions conference that all believers are to be involved in the Great Commission by being senders, goers, mobilizers, or welcomers. Welcomers reach out to those that God has brought to our community from other nations around the world. You will have an opportunity to be a welcomer next month by having an international student (or two) over to your house for Christmas dinner. This is a great opportunity for you to open up your home to internationals, share American Christmas traditions, your own family traditions, the meaning of Christmas, and the love of Christ with them. 80% of internationals who come to the United States never get invited into an American home. Let us not miss this opportunity to be welcomers. If you want to host an international student from AUM for Christmas dinner, please contact Judd Hough at jhough@pobox.com for details.
