Christmas Blessings Friends. And also some news for the New Year … I’ve accepted a call to serve Lutheran Hour Ministries starting in January!
Lutheran Hour Ministries (LHM.org), through its global media presence in more than 60 countries, proclaims the Gospel to more than 150 million people around the world each week. Carrying out its mission of “Bringing Christ to the Nations—and the Nations to the Church,” this year alone:
- More than 50,000 individuals participated for the first time in Bible Correspondence Courses offered by LHM’s International Ministry Centers.
- Nearly 120,000 individuals were referred to local churches and Christian communities for spiritual growth and nurturing.
- Tens of millions will view the only Christian/religious float in the Tournament of Roses Parade on January 2, 2023. This will be LHM’s 72nd year in the parade.
- and more! (See https://www.lhm.org/about )
I am proud and excited to be a part of such a Christ-centered, Gospel-oriented, Mission-focused organization, that is reaching people who might otherwise be unreached with the message of Jesus. I also am blessed to be called to continue serving the Lord as He has equipped and enabled me to do.
In case you’re wondering, while LHM is headquartered in St. Louis, MO, I will still be living in California and traveling to St. Louis and other parts of the country as necessary. I look forward to sharing with you more about all this – just reach out and let me know.
God’s Blessings to you and yours in the New Year!
