Times are tough. Recession… layoffs… the stock market—the news is bad and it seems like it gets worse every day. But right now, there’s a spiritual stimulus at work in our land. Talk to any of your more than 5,600 North American missionaries and they’ll tell you that these tough times are also times of great opportunity. When people struggle, when people realize the things they once trusted in don’t last—that’s when people begin to ask the important questions. So in this season when together we pray and give to the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering, don’t let this opportunity pass. Don’t let an economic recession turn into a spiritual recession. Our goal—set in cooperation with our partners—is an ambitious one of $65 million. Please pray… and give… and live with urgency.
