26 Missionary Blogs (from A to Z)

by Jim on 21 February 2011

in Special themes

So I was just sitting here and wondering if I could make my very own A-Z list of missionary blogs.

All right, so it’s just another fun way to discover new blogs!  I admit, I cheated a bit with X.  But the Rapp family has to get some kind of a prize for their creative use of that misunderstood letter.

I do believe I managed to have 26 different countries as well.

So enjoy this quick alphabetical tour of the world, and go leave a comment on a blog you’ve never commented on before!  ;)

Change, News, and Chinglish…

Children playing in Nepal

The incredible posts never stop . . . I wish I had time to highlight them all!  First, here are some comments regarding current news events that you might be interested in – the strike in Nepal, for example.  And from Taiwan, some comments about "Chinglish" and China’s World Expo.

On the culture, a common issue in Latin America as seen by one blogger in Columbia.

And finally, on the topic of change.  Missionaries experience constant change, in their lives and in the lives of others.  Sometimes good, sometimes challenging.

First, moving from one country to another and discovering Stowaways!

Next, a time of change as these missionaries also move, for different reasons.  This is one of those especially challenging changes.  Don’t miss Committed to the Cause(s).

Lastly, in Swaziland Jesus Transforms an Abusive Teenager!
