Dear Reader,
We hope and pray that this greeting finds you growing in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, “who abolished death and brought life and immortality to light through the gospel” (II Timothy 1:10).
For more than three decades, we have plowed, sown, and harvested in our Master’s field and have labored to build His house (I Corinthians 3:9). We have made it our aim to “follow the Lamb wherever He goes” (Revelation 14:4) and to give our lives that He might receive the full reward for His suffering. We are determined to hold our course until His banner flies over every inch of the globe.
Our strategy is simple. We seek to advance the Great Commission through the mobilization and equipping of indigenous missionaries throughout the globe. We serve as an intermediary or rope between the missionary who goes down in the mine and the churches and individuals who support them through their prayers and giving. Like David who was charged by his father Jesse to look into the welfare of his brothers on the battlefield, give them provisions, and bring back news (I Samuel 17:18), we look after our brothers on the mission field, provide for their needs, and bring back news to all who support them.
Throughout the years, we have passed through many trials and hardships, but God has always been faithful and much has been accomplished. However, very little would have been possible apart from faithful intercession and enduring generosity of those who have partnered with us. We point to them with every victory that we lay at the feet of Christ.
It is because of our deep and enduring appreciation for the individuals and churches who have partnered with us that we have prepared this Mission & Methodology booklet. We have also written it for a new generation of believers who are just now inquiring about us. We hope and pray that this brief work might be a blessing to all!
Sincerely,
Paul Washer
