Missions Sunday at Olive was a great day! People were moved to get involved in touching the world for Christ. The next 12 months will be exciting days as we go and tell. Thank you, Olive family, for the $201,000 you committed toward missions in this coming year.
 
I am in Atlanta for the trustee meeting of the North American Mission Board. As you know we are searching for a new president. Keep this on your prayer list. We must find God’s man. We are also wrestling with policy issues for the board in these days of transition.

NAMB is the SBC agency that assists churches in reaching North America with the Gospel. One of the strategies is our Strategic Focus City effort. At Olive we are working in one of these cities to start a church. The work is under way in Cleveland. Church planters, Brent and Aimee Myers, have moved there just this week. As he begins his work to birth a new church, we will be helping in many ways, including sending funds from your gracious gifts to missions. In the months ahead we will be commissioning missions teams to Cleveland to prayer walk and lend a hand in evangelistic work.
 
Don’t forget October 15 is Meet Your Neighbor Sunday. We will all gather at 4 p.m. and then disperse to go into the neighborhoods around the church plant to meet new friends in our vicinity. It all begins in the ROC where you will be given your assignment and pick up flyers.  I urge you to bring the whole family for a mission adventure afternoon.
 
Pastor Ted Traylor
