Befriend A Mission Program
LWMS women love missions and the missionaries who serve them. One way this is apparent is through the Befriend A Mission program (BAM). Each of the 60 circuits plus the non-circuit member congregations and the individual members receive at least one home mission and one world mission to befriend over a two year period. The circuit’s BAM Coordinator collects information about the missions and missionaries and shares the information with the circuit. The women of the circuit pray for the mission and missionary. They also send cards of encouragement and sometimes gifts to support special projects or gifts simply to show love to the missionary and family.
