If you’re looking to take missions to a whole new level in your church, read on!

One of our newest customers, Wendy, from Hunsinger Lane Baptist Church (HLBC) in Louisville, Kentucky, is doing just that!

As she put it, “I stepped into some big shoes when there was a change in our missions leadership.”

Wendy said, “I wanted to take missions to a whole new level in our church and it included strategies to communicate more effectively with our people about what God was doing … and MissionMakr was exactly what I envisioned for our communication strategy.”

This post was written by Rhonda whose two girls went on a mission trip to Africa during the summer of 2011.  She talks about being a MissionSupportr and being able to follow the trip to Africa via MissionMakr.com.  

“Lord equip my children, teach them to serve You and may they love You with all of their hearts, minds and souls. Amen.”

Previous to using MissionMakr, I was invited by Matt Phillips, Missions Pastor, to show them how MissionMakr could enhance the way they communicate and impact people with short-term missions.

That’s exactly what Kirk Giles said when he ran into me at church a few days after returning from our Mexico 2011 short-term mission trip with 90 High School students and leaders!

You can’t put a price tag on a positive referral, so when I was given the opportunity to sit down with the Mission Team from Shelter Cove after they used MissionMakr for their Africa trip, I knew I had to get the word out about their experience because it was a positive one!  Many thanks to Pastor Garth Aderholt and Shelly Walker for allowing me to quote you both.
