IM, Inc. News Release – Lancasters Take on New Roles
December 4, 2021
Antioch, TN – After almost 23 years of serving as missionaries to Uruguay, Jaimie and Tammy Lancaster are changing roles and will be stationed in the United States.
Jaimie’s new role will maintain a strong connection with Uruguay. He reflects, “Our supporters have much invested in Uruguay. We are not ‘abandoning’ the mission field in Uruguay. We will continue as missionaries and be connected to the ministry for the coming years, but our focus will be different. The Lord is opening doors globally, and we are excited about helping grow the Kingdom and get the Gospel out to those who need it the most.”
The Lancasters will leave Uruguay on December 3rd. Jaimie and Tammy will be living in the Nashville area and the Free Will Baptist Association in Uruguay will move to partnership status. Jaimie will continue working closely with the National Association of Uruguay leadership and will assist Director of Field Partnerships, Kenneth Eagleton, in forming, maintaining, and promoting Free Will Baptist field partnerships.
Country partnerships are a milestone in Free Will Baptist missions. As countries develop and mature, they still need assistance financially, in leadership training, and in sharing the Gospel, but permanent personnel is no longer needed in-country. Partnerships are supported primarily through the World Missions Offering.
The Field Partnerships Department is expanding and needs more help. The Lancasters will be a great addition to the team. With decades of field experience, second language, and good communication skills, they should be an excellent fit in some much-needed areas.
