Kelly O’Donnell & Michele Lewis O’Donnell have spent much of the last year editing a new member care book called, Global Member Care: Stories and Strategies for Staying on Course. It will be released on September 24. They’ve been kind enough to provide Brigada readers with a discount code — but it will only work until the 24th. To order, just click to https://missionbooks.org/products/global-member-care-vol-3 and use the code, PREGLOBAL25 [edited on 9/4: Kelly was sorry to say that he included the exclamation mark by mistake, so we’ve removed it here; please pardon the inconvenience.]. This collaborative book features 20 chapters full of stories, strategies, reflections, and resources from member care and mission colleagues around the world. The 43 authors and nine consulting editors provide a distinctive, directional platform to listen to and learn from our field’s global voices as we reflect on good member care practice in the context of challenging global issues, inspired by the vision to see member care develop globally—for all peoples and from all peoples.
Note: edited the above item on 9/4: Kelly was sorry to say that he included the exclamation mark in the purchase code by mistake, so we’ve now removed it above in the item; please pardon the inconvenience. Please try the purchase again without the exclamation mark.
Thanks Doug and Tina and Brigada for sharing about the new member care book! We are delighted that it is out there now circulating internationally over the past six weeks. There is also now a special offer from the publisher–William Carey Publishing–for a 30% reduction when all three volumes in the Global Member Care series are purchased together.

More than anything we are grateful for the wonderful group of authors and consulting editors along with the endorsers and publishing staff (70 people total!) for making this collaborative work possible–one example being the superb chapter authored by four staff members from Team Expansion on their organization’s development of member care over the years. Thank you Lord!
That superb chapter was authored by five staff members (not four) from Team Expansion and focused on their organization’s development of member care over the years. “Tough People for Tough Places” (chapter 16) by Doug Lucas, Jacquie Kubr, Mary Kranick, Jonathan Trotter, and Renee Witkowski. Five stars! (smile)
