My name is Gordy and I am a retired and disabled person.  I am alone at home most of the day during the week.

 

Last week I was meeting with my Elder for breakfast and Bible Study and we got to talking about ways I could serve.  One way was writing to missionaries.   My problem is I don't know any missionaries to write to.

 

I know that there are many that are working in "Creative Access" countries that cannot converse with me very much, and that is okay I understand.  But I am willing to converse with ANY missionaries around the world and keep it quiet and only tell my church offline.

 

So if you would like to write to me my email is: gorjo1976@gmail.com.  It would be nice to hear from you and I promise to write back.

 

Peace + Love in Christ

Thank you, Gordy for this very kind offer. Most missionaries love to have people write to them and tell them that they are praying for them. But also, many missionaries don't have much time or have limited access to internet. Do not be discouraged if you do not hear back. Keep praying and encouraging people through letters, but also those around you in your community. And be blessed for thinking of us who are serving cross-culturally.
