I had the opportunity to sit down with the Erbeles a couple of weeks ago and have a beautiful conversation about their ministry and how Rural Montana can be in partnership with them.

Evelyn and Teri Erbele are missionaries with the Global Ministries of The United Methodist Church currently assigned as Mission Advocates for the Western Jurisdiction.
As Mission Advocates, the Erbeles are assigned to assist annual conferences, districts, and local churches in the US to understand and participate in global mission. During the previous 29 years, Revs. Teri and Evelyn accepted a variety of assignments on three continents – serving in Nigeria, Russia, Lithuania, Latvia, and most recently in Ketchikan, Alaska.
Currently, the Erbeles are visiting more than 30 congregations in Montana. Their itineration began Aug. 17 in Libby and will conclude Sept. 15 in Superior. If you are interested in supporting their ministry, please give directly online to their Advance accounts Advance: #10830Z and #10831Z.
