About Katie Peterson, our missionary…….
Katie serves as a missionary worker in God’s Country Cooperative located in a 250 mile eastern area of the Michigan Upper Penninsula. This area suffers from high unemployment, is isolated, and has many social problems. For these reasons, it was voted upon to support Katie financially in her important daily work and service.
Coming soon……a list of the 2010 Missions we will support!
