For about 24 years Ray & Marti Williams have been on the mission field, and Grace Bible Church has supported them for all of those years. They were at Grace yesterday and during the Sunday School hour they described a family on mission.
- The family must be on mission together. Dad is courageous in his leadership and sacrificial in his servanthood. Mom's attitude sets the tone of the home.
- Knowing the mission will not happen by accident, there is purpose and intentionality. Someone else will give the family an agenda if it's agenda is not clear.
- Dad & Mom live the mission and are verbal in their faith, so the kids see their example and hear the Biblical principles behind what they do.
- Hospitality is crucial to the mission.
Ray gave me some food for thought with this: "The church will evangelize as well as our families do."
