Here is some background to September 15 Worship presentation regarding Singing for Shepherds — Leslie Manning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Sunday, September 15, 2024
9 a.m\u20136 p.m. Eastern \/\/ 6 a.m.\u20133 p.m. Pacific<\/p>\n\n\n\n
You\u2019re invited to a joyful, hopeful drop-in Zoom event. Participate as a whole meeting, as a Sunday school group, as a family, or as an individual Friend. You can come anytime and leave anytime. Appropriate for all ages!
During this day-long gathering, we\u2019ll focus on two missions among pastoralist people in Kenya: Samburu Friends Mission and Turkana Friends Mission. We\u2019ll hear stories about these missions, watch videos, and look at photographs. We\u2019ll sing hymns together, pray for the missions and the people, and have a little fun with trivia. Depending on when you come, you might hear a Scripture-based message, join a prayer, see photographs of the missions, watch videos about the missions, participate in a trivia game, or sing a hymn. The activities will switch often. If you come for a whole hour, you might encounter as many as nine different elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We\u2019ll also set a goal for $1000\/month in new contributions to these missions. Why monthly commitments rather than one-time donations? Because these two missions bear remarkable fruits. They create church communities, run schools, provide health care, give scholarships, and deliver emergency feeding interventions, and yet it\u2019s perpetually difficult to raise the necessary monthly funds to keep them going. We pray for the opportunity to change that as a global community. Every commitment will help, no matter how small. Still have questions?
