Have you had your first taste of holiday bread yet this season? Adventist Frontier Missions is dedicated to the task of making sure everyone has a taste of bread—the spiritual kind, that is. This is the time of year when the Christian world pauses to remember that, two millennia ago, Christ was born as a baby and offered Himself as the Bread of Life that all should eat and live.

As we look back over another year of spreading the Bread of Life to the spiritually starving unreached people around the globe, we want to take this opportunity to thank you for being an essential ingredient in the divine recipe.

Maybe you were the flour—the monetary support that provided strength and substance to the missionaries working on the front lines with your monthly giving, bequests, charitable gift annuities, the list goes on. Maybe you were a dash of sugar, cheering and encouraging missionaries with letters, e-mails or care packages. Perhaps you provided the oil of the Holy Spirit, praying our missionaries through every challenging day and inviting the Spirit’s touch upon their families, their friends and their circumstances. Maybe you were the salt, using your influence to raise awareness of the critical necessity of frontier missions.

In a thousand ways, you have inspired us by your dedication and sacrifice, and we are deeply grateful. May God richly bless you—flour, sugar, oil and salt.
