Leadership Transition


After nine years of tireless and faithful leadership as directors of IMM, John & Ruth Merrell are stepping down. John will be coordinator and liaison of the partner ministries involved in Open The Bible. His goal is to form a viable partnership in this enormous new effort to make the GOOD NEWS, in a media format, available for the world. God has raised up new leadership to direct IMM - Jerry and Gwen Gibson. The Gibsons have been missionaries with Assemblies of God World Missions since 1989. They spent eight years in Mexico City focusing on youth and student ministries. Also Jerry has served as the Director of Special Projects for Latin America and the Caribbean. The Gibsons currently live in Los Angeles where they direct International Student Friendship Ministries with Chi Alpha, USA. If you would like to know more about them, check out www.jerryandgwen.com. Jerry and Gwen look forward to taking the helm at IMM in January of 2009. Until then, current IMM missionaries, Michael and Dawn Marie Helin, have been named as Interim Directors. Pray for all the team as we transition with great expectations for the future.
