The best way to understand how the mission of Christ Jesus is carried out in the world is to read the stories of individuals who have served or are currently serving God’s people overseas. Some of the stories are built on a long history of relationship and give insight to connections that have lasted over 100 years. Some of the stories are told in the form of a daily journal or weblog, allowing those of us at home the opportunity to share in the day-to-day lives of our brothers and sisters called to mission in far off places.

Take time to read the stories and look at the photographs. Keep all of our missioners – young, old, past, present – in your prayers, thanking God for their witness in the world.
