A brief mission update from PMc on-field director who is now in the USA with his family. Included in this episode is an exhortation from 1 Thessalonians 1:5 on being among others for their benefit and God's glory. We also share about a missions gathering now being scheduled for June 7th for friends and partners in PA. In addition we share some brief updates with prayer requests."If we are still alive then it is our joy to be pursuing Christ and making Him known through evangelism and discipleship until He returns. As we do that, let us remember that as we live for Jesus we are also living for the benefit of others."Links to things mentioned in this Podcast Episode:10-Day Update: Cookies and CoffeeBlog Post:  Roman Catholicism and the Gospel in 2 MinutesVision Trip Info Job Opportunities: ESL Director, Italy AdministratorServe: Long-term, Intern, Short-termAsk a MissionaryChurch Plant in Italy: Vera VitaThank you, enjoy and God bless!
