Mission Matters September 15

Luke 10:1,2 - "After these things the Lord appointed other seventy also, and sent them two and two before his face into every city and place, whither he himself would come. Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest."

Evangelism, 115.  "In our churches let companies be formed for service. In the Lord's work there are to be no idlers. Let different ones unite in labor as fishers of men. Let them seek to gather souls from the corruption of the world into the saving purity of Christ's love.
The formation of small companies as a basis of Christian effort is a plan that has been presented before me by One who cannot err. If there is a large number in the church, let the members be formed into small companies, to work not only for the church members but for unbelievers also."

Mission Emphasis Weekend - We were blessed by the inspiring messages that our friends from Adventist Frontier Missions (AFM) shared with us on September 6 & 7. Please watch these compelling messages and re-dedicate your life to serving God with all your heart!

Satan is busy in this department of his work, scattering literature which is debasing the morals and poisoning the minds of the young. Infidel publications are scattered broadcast throughout the land. Why should not every member of the church be as deeply interested in sending forth publications that will elevate the minds of the people, and bring the truth directly before them? These papers and tracts are for the light of the world, and have often been instrumental in converting souls.”The Review and Herald, June 10, 1880.

The emphasis this month is Work & School! The main goal is to distribute literature in your school or workplace.

Talk with a few fellow church members about their jobs and how they could distribute literature where they work, and think about how you intend to distribute literature at your own workplace. If you are in school, you can distribute literature, too; sharing with your classmates, leaving tracts in the classroom and more. Don't forget to share testimonies on Sabbath from your workplace or school to encourage one another!

Glow Ministry Ideas

• Go to a children's hospital cancer unit: Pass out goodie bags, read a Bible story and give
  a GLOW tract.
• Back to School: Go to high schools during after-school time and give away pens or pencils with GLOW.
• Go to parks and beaches to distribute GLOW on Labor Day.
• On Day of Peace (September 21), pass out 100's of tracts and say, "Happy Day of Peace!"
• Find a Fall Festival near you to pass out as much GLOW as you can.
• Google some charity events near you. Visit them to give out GLOW to everyone.
• Go around your neighborhood on Good Neighbor Day, and give
  GLOW to your neighbors saying, "Happy Good Neighbor Day!"
