When I received a Missions Faith Promise card, I decided on the amount to give. In previous years, I always forgot to give. In order not to forget this year, I gave my Faith Promise on April 1. I took an offering put my amount under "Missions Faith Promise" and gave it during offering time. At that moment, I felt happy as I realized I made a commitment and fulfilled it. Audrey Tay, age 12
What’s next? “A rope holder holds on until the job is finished.” Missions Convention is over, but it’s not the end. Our praying for Missions shouldn’t cease after completing the 14 Day Prayer Guide. Our giving shouldn’t stop when we’ve fulfilled our Missions Faith Promise for the year. Our going shouldn’t end when we’ve returned from a missions trip.

A rope holder holds on until the job is finished.
I don’t think the work of a rope holder ever ends. It is often a thankless job, but we must remember that it’s never about making names for ourselves. We hold the rope because we want to glorify one name – the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
