Summer Series in UMVIM Missions

Annual Conferences are the highlight of the year when we get to meet many of the team leaders and members and all our partners from the Annual Conferences as well as a few missionaries.  Meeting in person feeds our soul and reconnects beyond the occasional email or zoom meeting. Connecting and strengthening our relationships is what mission is all about.  

For the next three months, we are going to highlight sites, some new, some who are favorites internationally and in the US to show you the good work these sites are doing and how you can help.  If you have a site you want to feature, please email Ronda Cordill. We will continue to feature returning teams’ stories.
