****Dear friends, it has come to our attention here at Mission Central that some of you may not have received our “one and only” annual Thanksgiving mailing. We are not quite sure why this has happened, but we are looking into it. We don’t want you to miss out on our pictures and missionary stories, so if you have NOT received our Thanksgiving mailing and would like us to send it to you, please let us know via email or phone (712-882-1029). We don’t want to leave anyone out, because you are all very much loved and appreciated. We trust that Jesus, the Prince of Peace, will grant you His presence and His peace, now at Christmas and always! And remember, Jesus is with you!

We are a team of volunteers and professionals serving alongside LCMS International and National Mission who are deeply committed to:

• Helping YOU PERSONALLY support specific missionaries
• Assisting YOU PERSONALLY to volunteer with YOUR time and talents for the Lord’s work
• Keeping unavoidable administrative costs associated with YOUR personal gift as low as possible.
• Designating YOUR gift to a specific family or project in order that YOU have the absolute assurance your gift of love is going directly for its intended purpose.*

THE LORD’S MISSION CENTRAL IS IN THE HILLS OF WESTERN IOWA
WORKING COAST TO COAST WITH YOU IN THE LORD’S MISSION!

Contact Gary Thies or Rev. Steve Schulz (712-882-1029) to take action today.
