Dear Missionary,
Grace and peace to you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
As we step into this new year, I want you to know that I am deeply grateful for your life, your obedience, and your willingness to stand where many will not stand and serve where many will dare not go. Your labour in the LORD is not unseen, and your sacrifices are not forgotten.
Last year may have carried its own moments of strength and moments of weariness, days of joy and days when help seemed far away. Yet through it all, the Lord sustained you and the same God who called you is faithful to keep you, to strengthen you, and to supply all that you need for the assignment ahead.
As the new year unfolds, I want to encourage you to do even more for the Lord, not out of pressure, but out of love and by His grace. Trust Him not only for the work He has given you, but also for your personal needs, health, provision, and your future. He is both the Sender and the Sustainer of His missionaries.
Do not lose heart. When the work feels slow, God is still at work. When resources seem small, His power remains unlimited. When you feel alone, remember that the Lord walks with you, and the body of Christ stands with you in prayer.
May this year bring renewed strength, deeper intimacy with God, fresh fire on your altar, and clear testimonies of divine help. May the Lord reward your obedience, crown your labour with fruit, and grant you grace to finish every assignment with joy.
Thank you for standing in the harvest field.
Thank you for saying yes to God.
Thank you for trusting Him, even when the path is not clear.
I am praying for you, believing with you, and cheering you on as you press forward in Christ.
Grace to you.
Your Brother,
Peter Jerry
