The Encompass family is mourning the loss—but celebrating the life and ministry—of Margaret Mason, former missionary to the Central African Republic, and mother of Encompass staff member Wilma (Steve) Bailey.

Margaret went home to be with her Lord on Monday, June 14, 2021, at her residence in Warsaw, Indiana, at the age of 95. She and her husband Harold served as medical missionaries from 1952 to 1990.

The Masons raised six children, traveled the world, and experienced the joy of becoming grandparents throughout their 54 years of marriage before Harold passed away on September 11, 2001.

Margaret’s life will be celebrated on Thursday, June 17, 2021 at Lakeland Grace Brethren Church, 2538 S. County Farm Road, Warsaw, Indiana. Memorial donations may be directed to Encompass World Partners, P.O. Box 3298, Monument, Colorado 80132, and would be appreciated by the family.
