During the first days of campmeeting---
President Bosworth will ask, "What happens here next Monday?"
The crowd roars in response, "Missionary Day!"
The excitement and anticipation build as Monday approaches. We can hardly wait for Missionary Day to arrive.
In all the services on Monday the missionaries from World Gospel Mission share their hearts and ministries with us.
It is our firm conviction that Taylor County Camp Meeting should be worldwide in its outreach. Since the first encampment in 1939, Taylor County has been sending missionaries and Christian workers to the far corners of the world and faithfully providing prayer and financial support for these sent ones.
Meet our Missionaries for 2025
Andrés and Bethany Donahue, WGM Paraguay
Andrés grew up as a missionary kid in South America. He was born in Costa Rica and then lived in Bolivia until the age of seven. The summer before third grade, his family transitioned to serve with WGM in Paraguay. While this transition was difficult at first, he eventually grew to love the Paraguayan people and culture and to consider it home.
Bethany grew up in Southern California in a committed, Christian home. Her parents supported missionaries and hosted them in their home while she was growing up and the Lord used that to place an interest in missions in her.
Both Andrés and Bethany attended Asbury University and were involved on the student leadership team at World Gospel Mission’s student center on Asbury’s campus. As they heard stories of missionaries saying yes to God’s calling and serving around the world they sensed a call to missions.
They got married in November of 2021. Several months later, they had the opportunity to co-lead a team of Asbury students on a trip to Paraguay. On this trip, they got to join missionaries and pastors in sharing the good news of Jesus in various First Nations (indigenous) communities. Some of them heard about and received Jesus for the very first time! Throughout this trip, it was evident that “the harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few” (Luke 10:2) in Paraguay.
God used this to confirm His call to join in the work He was already doing to reach the unreached of Paraguay. The Donahues plan to be involved with both discipleship ministry with believers in Paraguay and evangelism in First Nations communities.
