Missionary of the Year




                                                      Greetings




                   This time of year always bring joy as we join in an occasion that celebrates
                   mission  ministry  within  the  New  York  City  District  Women’s Home  and
                   Overseas  Missionary  Society.    Today  our  celebration  spotlights  our
                   “Missionary of the Year”  from among the 18 churches that make up the

                   Mother District of Zion Methodism.

                   What is  so  wonderful about  these  honorees  is  that  they are  chosen from
                   among their peers as that person who best emulates the calling of a missionary
                   – to teach, bring healing, and win souls to Jesus Christ our Messiah, Lord and
                   Savior.  We celebrate the ripe and flowing fruit produced by the faithful and
                   obedient hearts and hands yielded to the Great Commission (Matthew 28:19-
                   20):  Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and
                   of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have
                   commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

                   So as we gather to salute our “Missionary of the Year” Honorees who thought
                   it not robbery to stand up, look up and hook up with God the Faithful Creator
                   to spread His special message of love and demonstrate His benevolence to
                   others through good acts of loving kindness that makes the world take notice
                   that there is something unique and rewarding in today’s Honorees.

                   We are so glad to have you as our special guest to honor those to whom honor
                   is due.  Let this occasion of tribute, fashion and fellowship provide lasting and
                   beautiful memories as you spend time with the Women’s Home and Overseas
                   Missionary Society!
