Missions from Everywhere to Everywhere

Have you have ever heard the phrase "missions is from everywhere-to everywhere?" One of our missionaries Stuart Foster is representing southern Africa at  SIM (Serving in Mission) International Council meeting in Peru this month. Some 80 leaders will be gathering for a once-every-three-years event.  Please keep him in prayer. He writes:

SIM (Serving in Mission) is becoming more and more an everywhere-to-everywhere mission, sending people from 40 countries so far to over 50 countries, and there are many complex questions associated with this, from personnel to financial accounting. The underlying questions are of governance and structure: How does a big organization (with 1600 missionaries), born in another era,  be flexible and grow without fragmenting? 

Pray for the Lord to bless the logistics of these meetings and to give His spirit of wisdom and peace to each delegate. Pray for outreach to new peoples, helpful policies, and great understanding to result.
Stuart Foster is missionary in Mozambique with SIM
