@ChrisHowles We are still here :) But it's sad there's so much less interaction on the platform ~Reuben

[OMF International UK @OMF_UK]

We give thanks for the life of former OMF worker Martin Goldsmith, who went to be with the Lord on 2 February, aged 91.

A service celebrating Martin's life will be held on Sunday 22 March in Chichester. More details can be found here on Eventbrite: https://t.co/IALcqMchpd

160 years ago today!

British missionary James Hudson Taylor prayed on Brighton Beach for 24 'willing, skilful workers' to share the gospel in inland China, sparking a global mission movement that continues today through OMF International.

We bear the torch that flaming
Fell from the hands of those
Who gave their lives proclaiming
That Jesus died and rose
Ours is the same commission
The same glad message ours
Fired by the same ambition
To Thee we yield our powers

Missionaries:

What questions are your supporters — or potential supporters — always asking you?

(Think: questions like "does that country really need missionaries?" Or "shouldn't we just give money to national partners?")

We want to know!

Happy Ascension Day!
We look forward to the day of Jesus' return and seek to tell everyone of his love and grace.
Yet across East Asia there are still many yet to hear of Christ.

How has Hudson Taylor's example inspired you? We'd love to hear from you.

[OMF International @OMF_Int]

Happy 193rd Birthday to our founder, James Hudson Taylor (1832-1905)!
We love this quote from Taylor, who started the China Inland Mission (now OMF) in 1865, when he was 33 years old with a prayer for 24 workers to take the gospel to those with fewest opportunities to hear it.

Please continue to #PrayforMyanmar with us, a month after the devastating earthquake there:

[Crosslinks @bcmsCrosslinks]

We have just heard from David Nyi Nyi Naing, Bishop of Mandalay.

He asks for prayer for:
1. People to get food, clear water and shelter quickly
2. Permission from military for international and local groups to help needy people
3. That the civil war would stop
