Roseville Christian Church is thrilled to be part of the spread of God’s kingdom around the world. We are active in sending missionaries and supporting these missionaries with our money and with our prayers. We encourage all of our people to respond to God’s call for laborers, whether it means that they move to a foreign country or live and minister in our own community. The purpose of this committee is to maintain close contact with missions supported. Keep the church board informed of progress and developments in the fields supported, and carry out a continuous educational program concerning the broad scope of missions.

Dorothy Nichols
 

She has retired from serving the McKinley Indian Mission. She celebrated her 96th birthday in April, and she lives in an apartment by herself in Sargent, Nebraska, near her cousin Shirley.

Dorothy grew up in a missionary family. She attended Lincoln Christian College in the mid-1940s. In August 1953, she went to Toppenish, Washington, to join the McKinley Indian Mission, Church of Christ, which has been serving the Yakama Nation since 1946. Native American and white men oversee the church mission, which continues today. Dorothy served the mission until 1972, when she moved to Boise, Idaho, to help care for her Dad. In 1978, she went back to McKinlye to serve there until her retirement in 2006.  

Dorothy visited RCC at least twice over the years we have supported her and remembers several people in our congregation who have since passed away. Her message to RCC is that she appreciates RCC for being so faithful in supporting her while on the mission field and during her retirement years. She says that her life isn’t the same today due to arthritis and being almost blind, but the Lord is taking care of her.
