Witness - Living On Mission – Before He ascended into heaven, Jesus commissioned His disciples to make disciples. In addition to your preaching and teaching, equip your members to join Jesus on His mission in their neighborhood by encouraging their attendance at one of the four regional “Living On Mission” events to be held across IDW May 27-31. Led by Rev. Greg Finke, Executive Director of Dwelling 1:14 and author of “Joining Jesus On His Mission,” these no-cost events will open the eyes of your people to the possibilities of living with Jesus on His mission. For more information go to www.iowamissions.org or contact Executive Assistant Mark Gerken (515-570-2331 or mark.gerken@idwlcms.org).
