Debbie Feenstra Interview
Debbie Feenstra, a member of the TIM (Together in Mission) team, discusses what TIM is and what the benefits are for a congregation who partners with missionaries.
Long-term Commitment for Congregations
Together In Mission invites congregations, groups and organizations to partner with LCMS missionaries serving around the world. By partnering with missionaries in their global ministry each LCMS member has the opportunity to journey with them and share God’s Word with all the nations.
You have the opportunity to pray for missionaries, encourage them through communication, send a short-term team to work alongside them and help financially support your missionary. Your gifts help sustain your missionary’s ministry and covers costs such as airfare, visas, insurance, travel, housing and living expenses.
This long-term commitment that Together In Mission offers allows missionaries and supporters to partner in God’s mission of reaching the whole world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
What are the next steps to partner with a missionary?

Matthew 11:1-19
Messengers from John the Baptist
(1) When Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he went on from there to teach and preach in their cities.
(2) Now when John heard in prison about the deeds of the Christ, he sent word by his disciples (3) and said to him, “Are you the one who is to come, or shall we look for another?” (4) And Jesus answered them, “Go and tell John what you hear and see: (5) the blind receive their sight and the lame walk, lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, and the dead are raised up, and the poor have good news preached to them. (6) And blessed is the one who is not offended by me.”
(7) As they went away, Jesus began to speak to the crowds concerning John: “What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind? (8) What then did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft clothing? Behold, those who wear soft clothing are in kings’ houses. (9) What then did you go out to see? A prophet? Yes, I tell you, and more than a prophet. (10) This is he of whom it is written,
“‘Behold, I send my messenger before your face,
who will prepare your way before you.’
(11) Truly, I say to you, among those born of women there has arisen no one greater than John the Baptist. Yet the one who is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he. (12) From the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven has suffered violence, and the violent take it by force. (13) For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John, (14) and if you are willing to accept it, he is Elijah who is to come. (15) He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
(16) “But to what shall I compare this generation? It is like children sitting in the marketplaces and calling to their playmates,
(17) “‘We played the flute for you, and you did not dance;
we sang a dirge, and you did not mourn.’
(18) For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, ‘He has a demon.’ (19) The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, ‘Look at him! A glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!’ Yet wisdom is justified by her deeds.”
