MCC

MISSIONARY CARE CENTER ~                       First Baptist Atlanta

We hear often of the blessing that FBA's Missionary Care Center is to so many of our visiting missionaries. We want to thank you, our church and our wonderful volunteers, for your part in providing these material blessings! But, there are spiritual blessings, too!

Awhile back we received a note from one of our FBA Faith Promise Missionaries, Sergio Mijangos, who lost his wife Linda in March of this year. We wanted to share with you a special experience he had with two of our volunteers at the Missionary Care Center. This is just one example of a couple of the volunteers getting to speak on the phone with our missionary Sergio Mijangos, through friends of his who were visiting the center. Our MCC volunteers are the best! They love missions and love pouring into the lives of our missionaries, offering encouragement and prayer to them. If you haven't visited the MCC yet, plan to do so. View here!

 

Note: The Missionary Care Center will be "Closed for Inventory" for two weeks in mid-August (August 7-10 and August 14-17).
