The U.S. Census Bureau estimates that more than one in four residents of Brinkley in east Arkansas live in poverty. For residents under age 18, the estimated poverty rate is closer to 1 in 2.

Praying about the problem wasn't enough to satisfy Steve and Leah Williamson, who help oversee the city's Mustard Seed Garden. Methodists have helped grow 2,565 pounds of produce this year, and Baptist volunteers are helping to distribute the harvest. It's all happening next to the Williamsons' place of worship, Brinkley First United Methodist Church, on land the water department has leased for $1 a year.

Seventeen new UMC missionaries were commissioned by Global Ministries during a joyful service in Nairobi, Kenya, taking their place participating in God’s mission around the world.

Representing 10 countries and serving in 15, these missionaries step into roles in education, evangelism, leadership and community development across Africa, Europe, the Middle East, Central America and beyond.

“This is the very heart of the work carried forward by The United Methodist Church—to send, to support, and to stand alongside those who bring healing, justice and hope in communities around the world.” shared Rev. Dr. John Maromba, Presiding Bishop of the Methodist Church in Kenya.

Join us in celebrating and praying for these missionaries as they begin this next chapter of service and partnership.
