Commissioned With a Mission
by Jordan Pitman on June 13, 2017 in BOUNCE
Today marks the first work day of BOUNCE 2017! Participants had an early start as they met at 7am after breakfast for GO TIME. This is an opportunity for our BOUNCE staff to commission these participants as they go out and serve with the love of Christ. BOUNCERS circled up and Scott Stevens, our Mission Coordinator, prayed over the teams as they begin work this week. BOUNCE staff joined in prayer and waved bye as teams left for their worksites.
Tonight at worship, our BOUNCE offering was collected. The offering this year is supporting the Missionary Adoption Program, and will be used to buy a small river boat for indigenous Brazilian Amazon missionaries. Missionaries in this area have a hard time traveling up and down the river, so BOUNCE is excited to partner with our brothers and sisters who are sharing the gospel in the Amazon. BOUNCERS heard last night about this opportunity and responded in a great way by getting us closer to our goal!
Ask God to continue to work in our BOUNCERS this week, and that they would share the love of Christ through their service to people in the community of Dallas.
Texas Baptists is a movement of God’s people to share Christ and show love by strengthening churches and ministers, engaging culture and connecting the nations to Jesus.
The ministry of the convention is made possible by giving through the Texas Baptists Cooperative Program, Mary Hill Davis Offering® for Texas Missions, Texas Baptists Worldwide and Texas Baptist Missions Foundation. Thank you for your faithful and generous support.
