Pray for Missionaries Passage: Exodus 36:1-7, focus verse 4-6
“Bezalel and Oholiab and every craftsman in whom the Lord has put skill and intelligence to know how to do any work in the construction of the sanctuary shall work in accordance with all that the Lord has commanded.”
And Moses called Bezalel and Oholiab and every craftsman in whose mind the Lord had put skill, everyone whose heart stirred him up to come to do the work. And they received from Moses all the contribution that the people of Israel had brought for doing the work on the sanctuary. They still kept bringing him freewill offerings every morning, so that all the craftsmen who were doing every sort of task on the sanctuary came, each from the task that he was doing, and said to Moses, “The people bring much more than enough for doing the work that the Lord has commanded us to do.” So Moses gave command, and word was proclaimed throughout the camp, “Let no man or woman do anything more for the contribution for the sanctuary.” So the people were restrained from bringing, for the material they had was sufficient to do all the work, and more.
Just as we see in the church today, the skilled craftsmen in Exodus did not perform their work alone. To be sure, many teams made furnishings and worked out details for the transportable sanctuary, but these artists could not have accomplished their labors without the congregation's contributions. The people of Israel brought abundant offerings and kept giving until the craftsmen finally went to Moses. The people had given more than enough to accomplish the craftsmen’s assignments, so Moses called an end to the offering. The Craftsmen also would have been well known to the people, and the anticipation of the completed Tabernacle filled them all with joy.
Missions cannot be accomplished without contributions of people who hold the ropes for those actively serving in the mission field, and God calls us to be cheerful givers. Pray that we would be a people who serve our missionaries well by giving abundantly.
Prayer Focus: Sub-Saharan African Peoples: Each year, missionary kids who are rising high school seniors attend a five-day debrief conference during their summer break. This conference allows these third-culture kids to glimpse life in the United States as they prepare to come to the US after high school. Pray the attendees will be equipped and encouraged as they look ahead to life in the US after numerous years living overseas.

Missions Through WMU and WOM
The mission of God is a thread woven throughout the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. God makes it clear His desire is for all people to know Him and follow Him. The Bible helps us understand God’s mission and know how Christians are to be involved in His mission.
God issued the mandate for us to be involved in missions through the Great Commission. Our choice is how to be involved. WMU and WOM offers many opportunities for giving and hands-on service missions projects.
