Going into all the World
In a
fitting conclusion to a conference focused on the
Great Commission, thirty-four workers were
commissioned for service around the world with RMM
on Sunday, August 1. Nineteen were new appointments
and fifteen of the workers were being reappointed.
The twenty youth who will serve on the five 2004
REACH teams were also recognized. For more
information about these and other RMM workers visit
the online personnel directory on the RMM website. |

Missions Quote
Blaise Pascal was a French philosopher whose brief
life lasted from 1623 to 1662. Several experiences
led to his conversion in 1654. He observed, “There
is a God-shaped vacuum in the heart of each man,
which cannot be satisfied by any created thing, but
only by God the Creator, made known through Jesus
Christ.”
All else is meaningless. Only Jesus can fill the
void. That is why we exist as individual Christians,
as churches, and as a missions agency, to invite the
nations to worship Jesus. – compiled by

In
the first week of August, RMM suffered the loss of
two workers who were battling cancer. Latin America
mission director
Henry Helmuth (top) died on August 1 and Alta Nisly
(bottom), a mission associate in
Albuquerque, New Mexico, died on August
6.
A tribute to these workers is being
planned for the October issue of Brotherhood
Beacon.
