When they get together to fellowship, they are able to encourage one another. But every pastor ministering to a returning missionary should encourage them along these lines of faithfulness and reward in eternity.

Do not undermine their way of leading or doing the ministry | 2. The two essential elements are talk and prayer. | 3.
