WAW Wednesday ... Happy New Year!

"The Word at Work is a ministry that mobilizes churches and individuals to answer God's call to minister to those in need," writes Rev. Tim Tam, Director of the Amarillo, Texas-based ministry. "Through our relationships, God reveals needs and opportunities for service. As we come along side the poor, new friendships develop and doors for ministry open. As we serve, God provides the resources to supply for the needs he reveals."

Happy New Year!

Hello Friends,

Today we gathered as a Staff for the first time in 2017 -- we spent time catching up, laughing about some of the crazy things that happened last year, and sharing our hopes and concerns for the year to come.

We prayed for our Board of Directors as they prepare for their annual meeting in Belize next week.

We asked that God would continue to bless Tim Tam on his sabbatical.

We thanked God for our partners in Belize and the U.S. who are putting their faith into action.

We praised God for His provision through our donors and for how so many are cared for because of the self-sacrifice of others.

We asked for wisdom, mercy, and direction in the coming year.

Would you please join us in these prayers?

Gratefully,

Mollie and the Staff
The Word at Work

P.S. Tomorrow, Tim Hagen will head off to Belize and get ready to receive his home church, St. Mary's Catholic Church of Amarillo. His team is excited to return to the Valley of Peace and see their friends there!
