Do you remember the LWML object — Mission Education, Mission Inspiration, and Mission Service? I am probably dating myself, but I remember dividing reports into these three areas. We change the language periodically, but this object has remained:
The LWML seeks to develop and maintain a greater mission consciousness among women of the LCMS through education, inspiration, and service.
A local society shares information on a recipient of a mission grant each month at their meetings. One member volunteers to do the research on the LWML and LWML District websites and then writes an article for the church newsletter. In turn, the entire congregation gets mission education every month.
The bonus: Mite box offerings increase when people understand where the mites are going!
