The weather may not feel like Christmas is around the corner, but it is for our IPHC Missionaries. In October, Women\u2019s Ministries forwards all your contributions to Christmas 4 Missionaries along with any cards you send to the career and retired missionaries serving around the globe. This practice began in 1979 when the current National Women\u2019s Ministries Director, Mrs. Agnes Robinson, realized that the, \u201cmonetary gifts sent to missionaries were inequitable.\u201d She felt that Women\u2019s Ministries could provide a solution by creating a unified fund through which missionaries and retired missionaries would all feel valued during this religious American holiday. In the first two years of the unified fund, the women of the IPHC raised $67,000 along with birthday gifts and prayer support. Over the years, many Women\u2019s Ministries Directors have considered it a privilege to fundraise in honor of our missionaries. With the ever-increasing number of missionaries, the previous year\u2019s donations did not equal the needs.<\/p>\n

En octubre, Ministerios de la Mujer reenv\u00eda todas sus contribuciones a los Misioneros de Navidad 4 junto con cualquier tarjeta que env\u00ede a la carrera y misioneros jubilados que sirven en todo el mundo. Esta pr\u00e1ctica comenz\u00f3 en 1979 cuando la actual Directora Nacional de Ministerios de Mujeres, Agnes Robinson, se dio cuenta de que \"los regalos monetarios enviados a los misioneros eran desiguales\". Ella sent\u00eda que los Ministerios de Mujeres podr\u00edan proporcionar una soluci\u00f3n creando un fondo unificado a trav\u00e9s del cual los misioneros y los misioneros jubilados se sentir\u00edan valorados durante esta fiesta religiosa americana. En los dos primeros a\u00f1os del fondo unificado, las mujeres de la IPHC recaudaron $ 67,000 junto con regalos de cumplea\u00f1os y apoyo de oraci\u00f3n. A lo largo de los a\u00f1os, muchos Directores de Ministerios de Mujeres han considerado un privilegio recaudar fondos en honor a nuestros misioneros. Con el n\u00famero cada vez mayor de misioneros, las donaciones del a\u00f1o anterior no eran iguales a las necesidades.
