The Church of the Nazarene announced the following retiring missionaries during a meeting of the 99th Session of the General Board 24-27 February, which was held in Kansas City, Missouri, USA
Members of the Board of General Superintendents and the General Board congratulated the retiring missionaries on 25 February in an evening service with a virtual reception. In addition, Global Missions has worked with the missionaries’ home churches to coordinate an in-person celebration, including the presentation of a sculpture as a token of the denomination’s thanks.
