It Takes a Village
It takes an immense network of committed people pulling in the same direction to serve successfully in God ’ s redemptive mission . From sending churches to called missionaries and from faithful donors to countless support personnel , many people and processes are required to fruitfully serve cross-culturally around the world .
Missions is an amazing enterprise , fueled by God ’ s grace and our frail human attempts at faithfulness to accomplish his Commission . And yet , by God ’ s goodness and divine providence , he continues fitting extensive and complex pieces together to expand his kingdom reign over all the earth .
In the following pages , you will see the impact of what God is doing in and through people who have said yes to his call . We step back and consider what we have witnessed and can only point to a great God whose endless love is revealed and shared through networks of people , spanning multiple countries , cultures , languages , and generations . We invite you to celebrate with us some of what God is doing around the world through the combined efforts of OMS , our partners , and our supporters .
Blessings ,
Chris Williams Executive Director of Global Ministries
