Welcome Concert Goer!


Your ticket into the concert of prayer event of the year will arrive shortly! You’ve been upgraded to VIP status with an all access 30-day pass. Your ticket (your magazine) allows you to cover a World Gospel Mission field in prayer from September 14 through October 13.


30 days—30 mission fields!

The most amazing part—a miracle of modern technology that recreates WGM’s historic Prayer Bands for the 21st century:

Call in daily (along with hundreds of other concert goers) on a special toll-free number to pray together live with a missionary serving on that field –
a sort of backstage pass, if you will!

So, spread the word to your family, church, and friends. This has the potential to be WGM’s largest simultaneous prayer effort in history, as we bathe our fields around the world in prayer!


Like last year I will be attending the concert and giving you my thoughts on the days events right here so stay tuned.

Your concert experience begins September 14.


Happy Reading,

As the page turns...

Thanks for your feedback. You've been reading! Several of you have written to give us your take on turning the pages of the Unsolved Mysteries in Missions themed Call. Some of you like it, so of you hate it, and some of you think it is great for this issue's theme, no matter where you land on the issue you should know that this edition had a special lay-out just for this theme so we are not keeping it for the long haul.

The July/August issue is in design now. It's looking great and you'll get to see it soon. The upcoming issue asks the question, "So, You Want to be a Missionary?" and then looks at the myriad of answers one might have to that question. You may be closer to being a missionary than you think. Sound interesting? Your issue will hit your mailbox around June 10.

More information to come,

Who's on the case?


Who doesn’t like a good mystery?
I know I do. In the edition of The Call (due to your mailbox this week) we take a look at some mysteries in missions that will need our entire detective squad to help solve.
Are you familiar with World Gospel Mission’s Unsolved Mysteries in Missions blog? We have been posting missions mysteries there for quite some time, leaving clues about ways to win the world for Christ. In this issue we asked a diverse group of missions-active individuals to share their opinions and strategies on these unsolved mysteries.
Our super sleuths may not have all the answers, but their diverse backgrounds help us formulate a better solution for these mysteries in missions.
Want to join the crew? We’re recruiting! See what other missions mysteries you can help solve by subscribing to the weekly Unsolved Mysteries in Missions e-mail at www.unsolvedministries.blogspot.com and receive a clue to the latest mystery needing collaboration by God’s detective squad.
Winning the world for Christ one closed case at a time,
