Effective March 1, 2009, the McGregor's began a new partnership with SAMS-USA (www.samsusa.org) as a missionary sending agency. SAMS (South American Mission Society) is one of the most established Anglican/Episcopal mission agencies, supporting missionary families for 150 years. SAMS will provide support in maintaining records as well as provide credit card and automatic monthly donation opportunities. A missionary agency receiving and processing donations helps to simplify and to assist the work of the McGregor's in Madagascar.
The McGregor's and the People Reaching People Board members thank all those who are involved in praying for and financially supporting Patsy and Todd's ministry.
