Last week’s Backpage was “Reflections on 20 Years of Brigada.” The very first Brigada went out on January 25th, 1995. (Read a copy here:

Now, 20 years later, we stand on the edge of tomorrow. Here are some of the goals we’ve laid out for 2015:
*** Grow from 6000 subscribers to over 7000
*** Add a form to make it easier to submit items
*** Finish the year in the black
*** Feature a prayer item in each edition
*** Stay relevant and vibrant to pursue our mission, as outlined below:
*** Identify & promote helpful resources, conferences, websites, agencies, individuals, etc.
*** Analyze & capsulate in layman terms the current trends in global mission, along with their potential impact on the world of missions
*** Challenge & motivate evangelical Christians toward greater involvement in finishing the Task of global evangelism
Inspire others to help in passing the baton of responsibility and initiative in world evangelism
*** Form a “brigade” so that, shoulder to shoulder, we can finish the Task that Jesus assigned us in Matthew 28:19-20.
Will you band together with us in 2015 so that, side by side, we can accomplish these goals? Please pray that God will guide our every step together.
Again, CONGRATULATIONS on the 20 years of service. Some strong goals for this year. I anticipate seeing many of them fulfilled. As for me, the ones (5, 11, 12) you shared today, are “gold” to me! Thanks!
