Mission
to the World team leads our community in financially
supporting, in praying for, and in visiting missionaries who are
strategically placed throughout the world. Furthermore, we look
for growth to come as more and more members of our body gain short-term
or long-term cross-cultural missionary experience. Not only might
Christ use such trips to advance his gospel in other parts of
the world, he will most certainly use them to bring gospel growth
in our midst as we are transformed by these experiences.
We look for this missionary growth to
come as Redeemer continues to grow strong – through its
worshiping, learning, sharing, serving and growing movements as
a community – as a central, in-town, anchor church, while
also continuing to plant churches in greater Austin and the Central
Texas region in a wise and timely manner. We will expect Redeemer’s
Mission
to North America team and Session to provide leadership
in this dynamic interplay of anchor church growth and church planting
growth.

Summer Mission Opportunities
Peru
Last July was our second short term mission
trip to Trujillo, Peru. We went not knowing quite what we would
be doing or whether we would be up to the task. We felt out of
place, yet strangely at home, as they gave us tremendous opportunities
for service and spiritual growth. Construction and teaching were
the main services we provided last year. However, the parish is
as full of opportunities for service as there are people in it.
Please pray about whether you should come on this year’s
trip.
Contact Rick Bocock (rlbocock@earthlink.net)
or
Mike Matlock (keycor@aol.com)
for further information and commitment.
