Chuck & Wilma Lormis have been involved in missions in some form or fashion for most of their ministry lives. Although they had known each other through ministry venues for more than 20 years, it wasn't until April 2015 that God began to direct their paths together. They officially joined forces September 5, 2015, when they became husband and wife to serve Jesus and make Him known. They both share a passion for missions, believing that missions is not simply a program of the Church, rather, Missio Dei (the mission of God). Therefore the mission of God should be integrated in everything the Church does.  Connect:  www.chuckwilmalormis.com  Missions Cultivators - Chuck & Wilma  www.facebook.com/MissionsCultivators ---------------------------- Connect with us!  www.gifts4glory.com Gifts for Glory Ministries  www.wellversedcomedy.com Well Versed Comedy  Become a Patron at www.patreon.com/gifts4glory  #OGHG #prayer #testimony #faith #Jesus #God #HolySpirit
