We’re not sure about the Meade International name. It’s what we’re going with for the time being so we can go forward. But we’re looking for and praying about a name for our missions ministry that strikes the right heart chord, fits our life purposes, yet doesn’t sound either pompous or cheesy. This is a difficult zone to hit, it turns out. For instance, Bob & Gail on Mission – cheesy, amateurish, but darn cute. Meades on Mission – also cute-ish, but cheesy, not professional sounding. Meade Ministries – ok, but very vague. Meade Minsitries Worldwide – a bit pretentious: we want to go there but aren’t there yet. So., what do you think? All input on this subject will be deeply appreciated and carefully considered as we move down the road and develop our vision and our name to match it. After all, this is about branding, and your opinion from out there might be more accurate than our too close view from in here. In the meantime, Meade International it is.

About Us
After a long season of prayer, Gail and I committed ourselves to full-time missions in December 2010. We expect 2011 to be the year we plant our feet on this new ground. Our vision, for the time being, is to be servant missionaries, seeking to serve other established mission organizations around the world rather than originate a new mission organization with ventures of our own. There are a lot of established mission ministries already out there - we desire to go alongside other missionaries as servants and partners until the Lord leads us differently. We are open to go anywhere in the world to serve, short-term, long-term...we'll see...Have Mission Will Travel...

The Romantic in me wants you to call it A Cup of Cold Water.
But I defer to those with more experience at branding. ‘Course, the name of the blog doesn’t have to match the name of your organization. From what I’ve observed with similar efforts over the last couple of years I’ve looked at such things, it probably shouldn’t.
Whatever, you clearly have God’s hand on you and I’m extremely happy to see you setting forth so boldly. These are going to be the best, most productive years of your lives. Yes, that’s saying a lot, isn’t it?
so excited for you! I still want to be a missionary when I grow up! You two continue to be inspirational!!! Truly used by God to encourage and give light to me.
Love, Tina
!congratulations Bob! you have taken a wonderful decision. I think that the name does not have an extreme importance, whichever the name, the most important is the content of your blog. Everybody will know about your blog if you are blessing people through your mission this information will be an inspiration for many souls. Just keep on doing what you are doing and God will supply your needs.
God bless you! best wishes.
Amen, Orlando!
FYI, Orlando is one of my students from Managua, so his remark is especially encouraging, though all the remarks are also.
Thank you so much for your kind remarks and support.
I am becoming more than a student I got your phone numbers and one day before christmas I am going to call you, I hope these are real numbers, but I need the aerea code of Texas. perhaps the name should remark the taget of your mission. I will think in some names.
Look at the meaning of your name. I can’t remember what it was, but I do remember that there was quite a testimony that went with it.
Hi Bob & Gail, am just now seeing your blog and I like it! I’m still a little on the tail end of things but for what it’s worth, I really like Meades on Mission. It didn’t strike me as cheesy or unprofessional, and it very clearly says what you are doing.
I’ll keep reading and look forward to more updates. May 2011 bring many open doors. Blessings, Kathy
