UBL

The Missouri Conference has been invited to return to a favorite Volunteers in Mission site of the past.  Over the next two to three years we will be sending 10 VIM teams to build a married student housing unit for the Latin American Biblical Seminary, in San Jose, Costa Rica.  Audrey Phelps introduces the new project in this MissionCast.  There are four ways to join this project.  You can pray for its success; you can donate to the project ($30,000 is needed for the building supplies); you can join a VIM team (Audrey will lead one of the first ones in August) and you can lead a VIM team.  Audrey and about 300 volunteers from the Missouri Conference have served at the seminary in the past, including a cabinet team, led by Bishop Sherer.  To join this project call or email Audrey at phelps@umocm.com or 573-474-7155.

Joplin

Tim and Ellie Brubaker have been living in their RV in Joplin for two months.  They drove to Joplin from their home in Harbor Springs, Michigan to help us coordinate Volunteers in Mission teams serving in Joplin.  Volunteering as they have been doing is nothing new for them.  They served several times in Louisiana after Katrina as well as in Greensburg, Kansas after their tornado.  They have also served in Florida.  What a blessing they have been to our Missouri Conference disaster response ministry in Joplin.  We wanted you to be able to meet them so your MissionCast crew arranged for a visit with them in their home on wheels.
If you would like to bring your RV to Joplin and serve in this manner please contact Jeff Baker at the Office of Creative Ministries.  Phone:  573-474-7155.  Email:  baker@umocm.com
If your congregation has a mission story that you can share in a 1 min to 2 1/2 minute video please send it to us.  If you have questions contact Max Marble at marble@umocm.com or 573-474-7155
