 GATEWAY WOODS
 

As true Christ followers, what is our mission? To spread the Gospel unto all nations. The Great Commission as it is laid out in Matthew 28:19. If you’re a Christian, you’re a missionary – and our own nation needs missionaries spreading the Good News more than ever. Every day at Gateway Woods, our staff encounter those who have never heard the Gospel – right here in our nation! Broken, hurting, and lost souls are searching for hope-filled futures. While we, as humans, can’t restore them, we can point them to the One who can.
Gateway Woods is looking for staff members to join this mission. We have openings in many different roles. From houseparents to educators, public relations to farmers, all skillsets are vital in spreading the Gospel message. When you say yes to serving on the domestic mission field at Gateway Woods, you agree to life-changing work. You are signing up for opened eyes, minds, and hearts. You are agreeing to fulfilling joy as you share the Gospel, and unexpected humility as He shapes your life while doing so.
Come be part of a mission field that is white for the harvest – it just needs some willing reapers with an eternal perspective. Visit gatewaywoods.org/careers for more info on all job openings. 

 SILVER LINING

The Silver Lining periodically features a topical article compiled from readers’ submissions. Coordinating with Mother’s Day, our May 2022 topic is: “What lessons, benefits, and inspirations have you carried forward from having a godly mother (or mother-figure) in your life (2 Timothy 1:5)?”
God has blessed us with honorable “mothers” who inspire how we embrace Christ’s Kingdom in a dark world. How has interacting with a godly mother (or an exemplary woman-of-faith) enhanced your Christ-like witness?
Please submit your contribution (length = 600 words or less) on this topic to features@acsilverlining.org by March 15, 2022. For questions or assistance, email Bro. Sam Manz at that same address. How is her unfeigned faith dwelling in you?
