In the service, the mission co-workers pledged to endeavor to be faithful to their duties and to strive to work among the people with humility and patience, remembering that they are invited as colleagues eager to learn, as well as to serve. Those present also pledged as representatives of their congregations across the United States and Canada to support them in God’s mission. Rev. Dr. Sharon Watkins then presided over the commissioning prayer.

We ask that you would continue holding up these mission co-workers, and those already serving, in your prayers.
