As you can tell from the highlighted feature on the Gospel.com homepage, we’re focusing on the topic of missions this week. A great deal of the ministries in the Gospel.com community are missions-oriented, although the scope of their mission work varies. At Thanksgiving last year we highlighted several ministries with a focus on missions and service; if you’re new to our blog, take a moment to read through that list and see if any of those ministries are doing work that matches your interests and calling. Over the next few days, we’ll be featuring more of them here.

When we featured those ministries late last year, we heard from several of them that while they always welcome holiday-season volunteers, it is actually the period after the holidays that many of them are most in need of volunteers and support. The warm-and-fuzzy feelings that accompanied Thanksgiving and Christmas might be fading by now, but the missions field is open all year long—so give some thought as to whether you’re being called to missions work sometime in 2008!

And while we’re making a note of previous posts: does your church have a missions champion? Arab World Ministries held a roundtable discussion about different ways to keep missions on your congregation’s collective mind.
