Happy Thanksgiving from WELS Missions!

Dear Friend of Missions,

“. . . because of your partnership in the gospel. . .”

– Philippians 1:3-5

This was Paul’s reason for giving thanks. He cherished his partnership with God’s people, knowing he couldn’t do mission work without his brothers and sisters in Christ in the congregation at Philippi. So, he said this at the beginning of his letter: “I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel. . .” (Philippians 1:3-5)

We, too, cherish our partnership with you in the gospel. Humanly speaking, we couldn’t do what we do in Home and World Missions without it. This is by God’s design. The many parts of the body are meant to work in partnership with each other for the common good. Your partnership in the form of prayers, encouragement, and gifts enables us to enter new mission fields and provide ongoing support to missions throughout North America and across the globe. We thank God for this blessed partnership! Enjoy this video that shares a small taste of how God blessed our partnership in 2024.

We also join with you in giving thanks to our gracious God. We know where we would be without him. Yet, by his grace, we are children of God, bought with the blood of Jesus Christ and heirs of eternal life. By his grace, we are showered with an abundance of earthly blessings that provide for our daily needs and more! And by his grace, we are partners in gospel outreach ministry that has an eternal impact on souls around the world. Praise the Lord!

From all of us in WELS Missions, we thank God for you.

Happy Thanksgiving!
