We are Equipped for Success

God has equipped us with everything we need to carry out the work of missions. We are prepared when we study His word and carry it with us daily, hourly, every minute and every second.

At the 4th District Christian Education Congress this past July in Lisle, IL, during a working session with Dr. Cecelia Bryant, we determined who we are as defined by God's word. Missionaries of the 4th Epsicopal Distrct will memorize the following verses by the 4th District Planning meeting this October:

We are:

• Patient: Hebrews 12:1 & Romans 15:5


• Understanding: Philippians 4:7


• Truthful: Proverbs 12:19


• Compassionate: Matthew 9:36


• Cohesive: Psalms 133:1


• Loyal: Ruth 1:16-18


• Sincere: 1 Peter 2: 1-2


• Committed: Psalm 37:5


• Focused: Psalm 119:37


• Open-minded: Galatians 3:28


• Prayerful: I Thessalonians, James 5:15 & Ephesians 3:14-16


• Self-Caring: Romans 12:1 and Ephesians 6:11


• Resourceful: Philippians 4:19


• Loving: I Corinthians 13:1

In addition, during this Conference Year we will study the Gospel of John.

Let's prepare ourselves for the work of missions!
