This coming year, I challenge you to get involved in your own miracle story.
Become a part of Kingdom building through giving or through going, both are
equally important.

How can you get involved? Think outside the box.
Nazarene Work and Witness was founded by
thinking outside the box. A group of concerned
laymen wanted to meet the needs they saw and
found ways to meet those needs. They stretched
conventional thinking and formed what is now
Nazarene Work and Witness.

Work and Witness continues to build much
needed churches, schools and other buildings
and share God’s word through Vacation Bible School, but there are many new ways
Work and Witness is sharing God’s love – medical missions, pastoral education,
Jesus Film ministry, sports camps, sharing a cup of coffee, participating in English
as a Second Language classes, encouraging other believers, even pinewood derby
races. The opportunities to share God’s love is endless if we continue to thing
outside the box.

Even the process of preparing a team is changing. Many teams include members
from various churches, even some that do not profess a faith in Christ but believe
in the value of helping others. They too can share in the experience of learning of
a God that loves them.

If you’re planning a team or are looking for a team to join, please let me know. I’d
love the opportunity to help you in your process, possibly open your eyes to other
ways you can stretch outside the box to get involved in your own miracle story.

Respectfully submitted,

Victor Morrison
