Volunteer opportunity with Eastern Mennonite Missions Need a break from being at home? There is an opportunity for you to volunteer at EMM's new office building at 450 North Prince Street, currently under construction. We're looking for help pulling new ethernet cables throughout the building. The work is not very physically demanding, however, volunteers should be in reasonably good health. We will follow strict COVID-19 guidelines, by providing work masks for all volunteers, and everyone must abide by 6-foot social distancing parameters. If you're interested in signing up for a time during the month of June, you can go to
emm.org/cables.
Cancelation of Eastern Mennonite Missions Events EMM staff members have spent the past several months closely following the COVID-19 developments and praying diligently for all who are being impacted.
We have made the challenging decision to CANCEL Global Fair and the worker commissioning service this summer. We have also modified our Kingdom Team experience to an online setting. We're hoping that conditions will allow us to have the EMM banquet on November 12. Make sure to check
emm.org for the most up-to-date information.
Dear LMC: A Fellowship of Anabaptist Churches,
Over the last several months, we've been working with EMM workers in three different countries to help tell their stories through video.
We've brought these stories together in a video series called "Stories of crossing cultures, engaging the world, and making disciples of Jesus."
This is the core of who we are at EMM, and we want your church to be some of the first people to see these videos. Go to
EMM.ORG/STORYVIDEOS to access these stories from the Czech Republic, Germany, and Southeast Asia. We encourage you to use them in your Sunday web-streamed services, digital bulletins, or however you want to share these encouraging videos with your church.
Then, starting on Monday, May 18, followed by May 25 and June 1, we'll be premiering each of these videos on Facebook at 8 p.m. ET. If you don't already follow us on
Facebook, we encourage you to do so and share these premieres with your friends.
In Christ's peace,
Andrew Mashas
Church Relations and Development Coordinator
