Mingledorff 334-462-3940.

Aldersgate UMC has a rich history of being “mission-minded”, serving anywhere from local to international locations. Since the 1980s, Aldersgate has sent short-term mission teams to Costa Rica, Jamaica, Nicaragua, Paraguay, Rus-sia, Columbia, Ecuador, Mexico, Ghana, and Hungary. Closer to home, we have had teams serve at Red Bird Mission in Ken-tucky annually since 2007. The work done in Jesus’ name on these trips has included many diverse activities including medi-cal, literacy, children’s ministry, construction, recreation, spir-itual coaching, and relationship building. Many of our mem-bers have led short-term teams, having received training through UMVIM and other organizations. We relish the oppor-tunity to introduce others to the mission field to serve the Lord as He calls them. Rev. Richard Williams, Associate Pastor, [email protected]

The team will be helping to start a new project.

We will literally be laying the foundations (or

been waiting 9 years for SIFAT to get started but

there were problems with title to the land.

Those have finally been settled! The Compas-

sion project has a huge waiting list of children

not able to get in for lack of space. In addition

to the construction work, we will spend time

with the children in the center, playing, having

worship, and having VBS type activities. Hous-

ing to be in a local hotel in Quito.
