In Mission Together encourages United Methodist Churches to prayerfully support United Methodist mission on local, conference, national, and international levels, through giving, and sharing in relationship, to fulfill Matthew 25 (“Whatever you did for the least of these, you did for me.”) and Matthew 28 (“Go into all the world and make disciples.”)
In Mission Together involves building relationships in shared ministries with people, programs, and/or projects. Partnering may last a few days or continue for many years. We celebrate Supporting, Serving and Sharing Stories from our Iowa United Methodist Churches in mission.
SIMPLE REPORTING:
1. SUPPORTING RELATIONSHIPS:
2. SERVING IN RELATIONSHIP/PARTNERSHIP:
This category goes beyond financial giving. It involves interactions and relationship with those being served. Sitting down and engaging in conversation is relationship building. Doing this repeatedly over time is serving in relationship.
3. STORIES TO SHARE
We want to hear your In Mission Together stories -- about what you do and how you do it! Learning about groups/churches “doing” mission, may give ideas to implement in other local churches and communities.
Submit written stories along with a photo(s) that you may have or video clips with the purpose of the articles to be published by Conference Communications and shared with Iowa United Methodists.
Send to: Sue Hattel (shattel220@aol.com) Conference Mission Education Chair
*Stories may be submitted throughout the year.
Forms are due by February 15 to District Mission Secretary with recognition given at Spring District Conferences.
