Preacher Needed
The church of Christ in Mexico, Mo is beginning a search
for a full time minister. We are located in north central Missouri,
a farming community with good schools and an all around “All American
City.” The church here in
Mexico
is in a mission field; we are small in number, averaging around 18-20. Sound in
the faith and true to the Word, would be considered on the conservative side,
but not anti. The individual for the job will most likely need to have outside support;
we can furnish a small salary, but there will not be any benefits or housing. We
understand this is not an attractive offer, but the work will be challenging
and rewarding to see the church grow. The individual will need to be a person
able to reach out to the community and a strong personal worker. We can offer
$25,000.00 salary. The age range for the congregation is mostly made up of
middle age to elderly. Mexico
is a town of just under 12,000 and made of small businesses, which makes the
pay scale on the lower range, however the town is a very nice place to live and
raise a family. We have purchased a future building site with highway frontage,
which will be a goal to work toward. We are only 45 minutes from the University of Missouri
in Columbia, MO. If you would be interested in a work in
the mission field please let us know. Send résumé to: Olive St. church
of Christ, 420 N. Olive St., Mexico,

Support Needed!
Bonnie and Lous Rushmore need your financial support as they labor alongside J.C. & Betty Choate (and others) in the program World Evangelism.
Louis and Bonnie welcome to visit your congregation, if feasible, and
make a PowerPoint presentation about this multifaceted approach to
world evangelism. They now reside in Winona, MS where from facilities
there they are
participating in worldwide evangelism through literature, radio, TV,
Internet, foreign campaigns and overseas Bible schools. The Vermilion
church of Christ has stepped forth to be the Rushmore's sponsoring
congregation; please send your contributions for this good work
to Vermilion Church of Christ, Rushmore Evangelism Fund, 5116 Driftwood
Dr., Vermilion, OH 44089. Louis and Bonnie may be reached at rushmore@worldevangelism.org or 662-283-9946.
Paula and Jerry Bates,
also new team members with J.C. & Betty Chaote in World Evangelism,
preceded the Rushmores by two months to Winona, MS. They, too, are
still raising their monthly support. Both families welcome the
opportunity to visit congregations to apprise them of this good work.
The most visible, stateside aspect of this good work is the quarterly
magazine, Voice of Truth International.
