Dear Friends,

The LINKS program of the Church of the Nazarene is a network of personal connections between missionaries and Nazarenes around the world. Missionaries are assigned to districts and, then on the district level, connected to local churches. This gives each church an opportunity to become personally acquainted with the missionary family and their field of service. Typically, churches send cards, cash gifts, packages, and other remembrances to their LINKS missionaries.
 
The missionaries are encouraged, knowing people care and pray for them. The relationships built over time personalize names and faces that both the missionaries and their LINKS churches value highly.  

 

Here are the names and biographies of the missionaries that have been assign to our District. Please read their biographies and share their information with your church members.

 

Please do not stop praying for our precious full time missionaries.

 

In Jesus,

Yelssy Manza

NMI President Metro NY District
