There is a day coming when all will declare the glory of the Lord; oh how I long for that day! There is still much to be done before that day comes. I have had the privilege to work with Eastern Mennonite Missions (EMM) in multiple capacities in the past few years, hoping to bring that day closer. Here in America it is sometimes easy to become jaded by the “daily grind”. There is a whole world out there that is longing to know the glory of God. EMM holds a special place in my heart, as every time I attend a function I feel the love of the family of Christ. Their mission is simple:
The single vision: to share the gospel of Jesus Christ in places of spiritual darkness, especially in places where the church is weak or nonexistent. The multiple expressions: at home and overseas, in verbal witness and acts of service, through prayer and financial support, by sending and going.

I would encourage anyone who desires to live out Jesus’ commission to make disciples of all nations to look into serving with EMM. “For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea.” Habakkuk 2:14
