Welcome
You have found the website of the Missionary Church in Freeman, SD. Thanks for visiting.
We have had the joy of serving in Freeman, and the surrounding community, for over 50
years. In fact, in Sept. of 2019, we celebrated our 50th anniversary. For more go to the
'celebrating 50 years' page, or click right here
Here at the Missionary Church we celebrate the love of God and new life in Christ through worship and praise; we cultivate personal growth in Jesus Christ through preaching, teaching, and study; we care about one another in Jesus Christ through demonstrations of genuine concern and sharing of ourselves with one another; we
communicate Jesus Christ to the world through one on one relationships, community outreach ministries, and world missions.
This is an exciting place to be. Wherever you are on your spiritual journey, whether early on in investigating God, a long time follower of Jesus, or anywhere in between we would love to have you be a part of our church family!

APRIL PRAYER FOCUS
“Now as He drew near, He saw the city and wept over it, saying, ‘If you had known, even you, especially in this your day, the things that make for your peace! But now they are hidden from your eyes’” (Luke 19:41-42).
“For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). Here in Luke, this only begotten son of God looks over the city of Jerusalem and weeps because of their unbelief. The heart of the Father was in the heart of the Son who cared enough for lost people to die for them. Imagine the heaviness as He considered the depth of their lostness. Without faith in Him, they were absolutely and completely lost — and so He wept from a broken heart. Earlier in His ministry, in Matthew 9, it says, “when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep having no shepherd.” Jesus saw them (in Luke 19) as people without peace and without a knowledge of where to find it. In Matthew, He sees them as sheep without a shepherd. How we see people impacts our response. Do lost people make us angry or broken? Do shepherd-less people frustrate us or move us to compassion? Who are the people in your world who are lost — shepherd-less? As you think of them what is your immediate response? We cannot be salt and light unless we are moved with compassion for those who are lost. This month, pray the Lord would break our hearts for those who are lost and have no peace.
