MISSIONARIES INFORMED AND ENGAGED TO DO A NEW THING LEARNING INSTITUTE

Dover Downs, Dover DelawareWednesday, July 18, 2018

8:30am – 12:00 pm

Learning OpportunitiesA New Way of Understanding our Purpose and Mission

This learning opportunity will assist us in gaining a new understanding that we are working with and for God. We have been called and sent by God to do the work of mission. It is therefore necessary for us to have strong biblical understanding

of our Godly expectations by doing the will of the one who sent us.

A New Way of Leading the Women’s Missionary Society Beyond the Meetings

In this present age we must begin to recognize the needs of other’s and learn new ways to mobilize mindful mission opportunities that will meet the needs of those

in our communities. We will learn new ways to engage members by helping them to understand present-day realities.

A New Way of Becoming a Purpose Driven Women’s Missionary Society

We must begin to step out of our comfort zone to try something new thereby allowing God to stretch our faith in the process. This learning opportunity will help us to let go of projects and programs that are impeding our progress and

re-focus our collective efforts to maximize our ministry of service.
