Ministry

Jeff DeVault

As a teen, Jeff went on a short-term mission trip with AMF missionaries Bob and Sharon Mathieu. His youth group helped the Mathieus paint an abandoned cellar to be used as a meeting place for ministry. Jeff got to know Bob on that trip and became a regular financial supporter of the Mathieus’ work.

AMF 2009 Annual Report

AMF’s 2009 annual report, Passing on the Love of Christ, will be arriving soon in donors’ mailboxes. Readers will discover how the love of Christ is needed on missionaries Jeff and Tami Mould’s new field; how the love of Christ is taken to New Orleans and Dallas through Kaleo, a ministry led by mission partners Ronnie and Jenny Davis; how the love of Christ is invested in daily life with COO Bryce Bartruff’s Fiscal Fitness seminars, and how the love of Christ is lived through board member Jeff DeVault.

The annual report also encourages you – an ordinary Christ-follower – to pass on the love of Christ with the Pass It On challenge.  Do something practical to serve someone on your mission field (where you live and work) and tell us what happened at www.amfmission.org/passiton.  Read others’ Pass It On stories on that page, and visit our home page each week this month to learn more about the stories featured in the annual report.

Earlier Days

Memoirs of My Early Days with AMF
By Betty Glover

I lived near Uniontown, Pennsylvania, south of Pittsburgh, and in 1957 received a letter from Reverend Warren Cleveland of Knoxville, Tennessee.  He was the superintendent of the American Sunday School Union (now AMF), and he asked if I would be interested in becoming a missionary nurse in the Appalachian Mountains of northeastern Tennessee.  He sent an application for me to fill out.  All I knew about the ASSU was what I had studied in missions class, and all I knew about Tennessee was that it was a state somewhere south of Pennsylvania.  But I filled out the application and sent it in.
