Grace Brethren International Missions honored a number of missionaries for their years of service at today’s missions luncheon and annual corporation meetings.

Here Margie Hull, who just retired after 42 years of missionary service in Africa and Portugal, was honored and Pastor Charles Ashman, right, prayed a dedicatory prayer for Margie. Ashman was pastor to the Hull family in the Phoenix, Arizona, Grace Brethren Church when Margie was still a young girl.

Among the items of business at the meeting was the announcement that the board has extended to GBIM executive director Dave Guiles another three-year call to head the organization. New missionaries in training and any missionaries home from their fields were also introduced and honored.
