News and Updates from EFM Missionaries
The matcing fund this summer has been a great blessing. It is wonderful to announce that donations went above the $150,000. Praise the Lord!! The soft economy in the United States has slowed missions giving in general. However, the Lord has used the matching fund to keep EFM on track. It is great to see the Lord work. Pray that He will continue to supply the needs. It takes approximately $3 per minute to keep EFM afloat financially.
EFM is now registered with GoodSearch and GoodShop. If you use GoodSearch for your web searches they will donate a portion of advertising proceeds to your favorite charity. This is also true for purchases from stores in GoodShop. Go to the GoodSearch website and be sure to put Evangelistic Faith Missions as your preferred charity. Then do your web search as you normally would using their Yahoo based search engine. So far I have been happy with the search engine power. You can also check to see how much has been generated for the charity. I have done a handful of searches over the past 3 to 4 days and we have a few cents earned for EFM. But “many hands make light work” so if a lot of people participate then we can generate dollars. DGSmith
Donald Smith M.D. has completed his first month at work in the home office of EFM. He has started to learn the daily workings of the home office. Many people have asked what a doctor is going to do at the home office. He will have three primary jobs. First, he will recruit personnel for, organize and run short term medical missions trips to Honduras. Second, he will travel for the mission thus giving Brothers Manley and Hight some relief. Third, he will work in the area of stewardship and donor relationships. He is scheduled to be in missionary convention the week of September 15. Please put “Doc” on your prayer list.
