✝ Missionary Moments

Challenging churches to look outward to minister to their communities, including prompting a vision for church planting, is the primary focus for KEITH and ANN LAWRENCE. Keith serves as associational missionary for the Maine Baptist Association, providing training, resources, and encouragement to 18 churches as they accomplish their task of reaching the 1.2 million people in their local harvest field. Keith and Ann know the task is too large to accomplish on their own. They are counting on our prayers and our commitment to reaching people through the Cooperative Program to impact the people living in their area. This week, pray for the communities who need new churches and for pastors to serve them.

We need your help one weekend each month from May through September. The church has 2 riding lawn mowers and a push mower, so there is enough equipment for 2 or 3 people to work together.
