Good Shepherd Missions Moment

April 2024 Missions Moment

  • In May at the REC’s Women's Day event, an offering will be taken to support missionaries Gerhard and Grace Meyer, who will soon retire after 50 years’ service in Germany. During his ministry, Bishop Meyer has overseen several missions, supervised students at Saint Benedict Seminary in Schwarzenborn, and assisted his wife, Grace, at several Christian camps, including one that welcomes English-speaking high schoolers from the US. To learn more about the Meyers, the state of the church in Germany, and the Meyers’ work over the past 50 years, please visit the REC BFM Germany website https://www.rec-bfm.org/germany



March 2024 Missions Moment

  • Does the Anglican Church care about missions?  Aren't we instructed in the Great Commission to "go and make disciples of all nations"? Is there such as thing as an Anglican missionary?  The answer to all this questions is "Yes!"  The REC Board of Foreign Missions (https://www.rec-bfm.org) is active around the world, and we have the opportunity to partner with them by supporting missions with prayers and donations, and even in some cases, missions trips.  This "Missions Moment" paragraph will be appearing once a month as a place for you to learn about some of the REC missionaries, and will help acquaint you with their work and locations around the world.  The more we learn, the better we are able to pray for them and support them in this important work of taking the gospel to all nations.  For more information please speak with Betsy LeGrand.
