Missionary Ana Crocker’s birthday is September 9…mail cards really soon!
Have you bought cards and International stamps for our missionaries’ birthdays,
anniversaries, or just to let them know you’re praying for them? Each E TN church
received an NMI Event calendar, in their packet, at NMI Convention. NMI Events
list, with all missionary birthdays, anniversaries, and addresses are printed on the
front, & addresses are on the back. If you failed to pick up your packet, the NMI
Events list is attached for you to print. Attachment
How Does YOUR Church Learn about Global Missions?
Some churches have an NMI Service, with lesson, prayer for missions…
Others have a “Missionary Moment,” sharing requests/ praises during a regular service.
Some churches share through NMI Central on phones of church families
Some use missionary videos to share about missions/ missionaries
Are children, youth, young adults, & seniors involved in missions at your church?
E TN DISTRICT NMI REALLY WANTS TO KNOW HOW YOU KEEP MISSIONS RELEVANT!
Please reply to this newsletter to share the ways your church engages all age groups in
missions..just hit “reply,” and share your successes or your requests for help. Please ID
yourself & your church.
Be sure to see today’s NMI Central, with it’s beautiful video and Kids’ Kaleidoscope

Find great ppt. presentations, based on NMI Central at http://etnmi.org/resources/
Don’t have access for PPT or a video? Use your imagination!
There are many ways to involve our churches in learning about/ praying for/ investing in Global Missions.
Sometimes, churches can’t use videos/ppt. presentations, but that didn’t stop Gina Warren, NMI President
at Mt. Hermon Church! She recently shared about the “Low-budget, engaging way” Mt. Hermon
Nazarene used to create a missions lesson from a single magazine story.” They had no
ppt. or video…just a mission story from Nazarene Compassionate Ministries magazine.
But, they used their imagination, did some creative thinking, and came up with an unforgettable
missions experience for their congregation. Be sure to read the brief story (attached, with some
great pictures of the service.)
