When the plan for Synod's Fan into Flame mission emphasis was developed, the leaders wanted to ensure that ministries at every level would benefit from the generosity of individuals and congregations. Today, congregations, Districts, North American Missions and Synod's World Mission are all receiving funds to assist them in furthering the mission of the church.
The Texas District has been blessed and continues to be blessed from the gifts associated with the Fan into Flame major gift campaign. Over $475,000 has been received - all earmarked for new mission work in Texas. Two ministries that are currently receiving funds are St. Peter in Roanoke and the Korean Ministry in Houston. Some of these funds ($475,000) will be used for new mission support in 2008. Details will be shared with you as they develop.
Thank you for your generosity! Short stories about how congregations and mission ministries are using Fan into Flame monies to share the Gospel will be printed each month starting in December. We thank God for how He is blessing our church through this initiative.
