NAZARENE MISSIONS
INTERNATIONAL (NMI)
This is the promotional, educational,
program, and fund-raising arm of Nazarene missions.*
The Dakota District NMI theme for the
2007-08 year was “The Cross, Seize it!
Share it!
Speak it Boldly!”.
The Easter and Thanksgiving Offerings
are one of our greatest avenues for going into all the world
to preach the Gospel to every person.*
These offerings are our World Evangelism Fund and you
gave $3,472 to pay this obligation in full.
The Alabaster Offering is like “perfume
money” not spent on ourselves but given to Jesus.
These love gifts are transformed into buildings and
property sites around the world.*
We gave $145.
NMI helps provide funds for the health
care of Nazarene missionaries.
This is done through the Memorial Roll, Distinguished
Service Awards (DSA), and offerings.
We presented a DSA to Gary and Betty Lee.
Missionaries give Great Commission
reports that connect people at home to the mission field.*
We were privileged to host Missionary Robert Brunson
from the Eurasia Region at a Wednesday evening service with
the adults, young people, and children in attendance.
Our gift to him was $250.
Some of our children were able to attend a Children’s
Mission Day in
Valley
City to hear Rev. Brunson.
Our children also attended a Mission Day in
Bismarck to hear Rev. Samuel Ovando from
Puerto Rico.
Some have read the NMI books and
listened to the CD’s, learning about people and experiences
around the world
Eighteen Crisis Care Kits were assembled during VBS.
The VBS students raised money for a special mission
project. $300
was given to support a child in Haiti.
An offering of $22. was given for the World Missions
Broadcast. The
Youth participated in a special mission’s project, “30 hour
famine”.
We pray for missions in general and
also for specific missionaries and their needs.
Everyone can pray.
A helpful source to use is the Prayer Mobilization
Line (1-816-444-PRAY) or

for interesting information about Nazarene Missions.
We look forward to your continued
participation this next year.
