Faith Promise Sunday - January 26, 2025
Join us for a special Faith Promise Sunday at First Methodist Church of Ardmore on Sunday, January 26th, 2025. This day will focus on the global mission efforts we are a part of and how we can support and engage in spreading God’s love to the ends of the earth.
Special Guests: Rob and Shini Abraham
We are thrilled to welcome Rob and Shini Abraham, who will be speaking during both services. They are currently leading retreats in Colombia, Guatemala, Mexico, and beyond, reaching out to missionaries across Latin America. Latin America is now the largest missionary-sending continent, and doors have opened for Rob and Shini to return annually for regular retreats and training. While they include American missionaries serving abroad in their work, Rob and Shini focus much of their efforts on the often-forgotten missionaries raised up by God in Asia, Europe, Africa, and South America. Many of these missionaries lack support systems, resources, and opportunities for soul-care and training in their own countries. Come hear their inspiring story and learn how you can partner in the global mission field.
Meet & Greet with Our Mission Partners
During the 10:00 AM Sunday School hour, come by the Welcome Center to meet and greet Rob and Shini Abraham, along with other mission partners from around the globe. This will be a great opportunity to ask questions and learn more about the work they are doing.
Boxed Lunch & Ministry Presentations
After the Epic Service, we’ll be serving a boxed lunch in the CMC. While enjoying your lunch, hear about three different ministries and how they’re making a difference around the world.
Our Heart for Missions
At First Methodist Church of Ardmore, we have a long history and passion for being a missional church. The Global Outreach Team (Go Team) plays a vital role in facilitating the mission program by following Jesus' call to create disciples for His Kingdom. We live out the words of Acts 1:8: “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”
We are actively involved in missions in four quadrants:
- Jerusalem (Local Missions)
- Judea (Regional Missions)
- Samaria (Hard-to-Reach Areas)
- Ends of the Earth (Global Missions)
Our mission work includes outreach both near and far, addressing physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs while proclaiming the good news of Jesus. We are committed to building relationships and making disciples, and we invite you to partner with us.
