RENEW MEMBERSHIP
January 5, 2009
Dear Gentlemen,
Good news about membership in Business Men’s Fellowship USA:
Our National Board has boldly rewritten the order of commitment for BMF membership. We have eliminated the dues structure and replaced it with the three points of commitment noted below. This change embraces the biblical requirements of faith and action required of us as followers of Jesus.
As a member of the Business Men’s Fellowship USA, you signify your commitment to:
1. Support the Christian beliefs of BMFUSA,
2. Commit your time and talents to reach men for Christ in your sphere of influence, and,
3. Financially support the work of BMF to bring the salvation of Christ to people in the marketplace. (You may do so through the "Donation" section before your complete your membership request.)
Called to be a harvest machine:
As a supporting member, you partner with all BMF members in building the “harvest machine” the Holy Spirit has called us to be. Our outreaches in Portland, OR and Austin, TX are bearing fruit. New chapters are also forming in GA, FL, NY, CA, AZ, NJ, and VA. Weekly, we receive website contacts asking how to begin a chapter or if one exists in a given city. The Holy Spirit is moving in the marketplace, and each new chapter provides a setting for unsaved/unchurched men to hear testimonies of how the Holy Spirit can change, guide, and empower lives that are surrendered to Him. A financial commitment of your choice funds the ongoing expansion of our outreach and the development and production of resource materials to confront the marketplace with the salvation of Jesus Christ.
Freedom to give as your heart directs:
Your financial commitment is now your personal choice. Prayerfully consider the words of Jesus in Matthew 6:19-21; He spoke of investing our financial “treasure” in His Kingdom:
"… But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” As you pray, consider the eternal consequences of our calling, and give as the Holy Spirit directs.
Your current membership is valid until it expires, unless you choose to change your commitment prior to your renewal date.
Please invite a friend to join you in bringing the salvation of Christ to people in the marketplace.
Together reaching men for Christ,
Wendell Nordby
President BMFUSA
