Do you have a heart for missions, experience in graphic design and communications, and live in the New Braunfels area? All over the world, World Indigenous Missions (WIM) missionaries are doing amazing things — but often they don’t have the time or skills to share those incredible stories. That’s where you come in.
Have you taken time recently just to sit and think about what God has done for you lately, and then thank Him?
Written by Janine Alvarado. Original post appears here. Tonight my daughter came home with homework of fill-in-the-blank words, where they give you a picture and maybe a “letter” (or in our case, a syllable) or two as a hint.
