Prayer Requests

For Indonesia - Unity & strengthening in the body of Christ! For the lost to come to the knowledge of Christ & follow Him.
For Joel and Haley - That they would fall more in love with Jesus & continually grow in looking more like Him. That they'd love & serve each other well throughout the training school.
That more workers would be sent!

Missionary Spotlight!

Joel and Haley Auten are currently attending a training school in Indonesia in preparation for full time ministry overseas! The team they are a part of was recently invited by the community to come and share Bible stories, play games, and teach a small English class to the youth in the village. What an open door to sharing the Gospel! They also are a part of an English Corner every Monday night, where they build relationships with the locals while also helping them improve their English. Haley was heavily involved in GoPrayer, and it has been such a joy for her to get to be a part of another prayer room worship team while overseas!

Outreach Stories

"In Luke 7, a sinful woman shows extravagant love by anointing Jesus' feet. After reading this story, I asked the Lord, what does that extravagant love look like for us today? I felt the Holy Spirit say, that it was what you did for me at the Dream Center. It was the prayers given to a woman who was sad her friend died of coronavirus. The gentle guidance of helping students complete their school assignments in a noisy confusing environment. Love was shown to the needy by passing out boxes of food to families barely making ends meet. It was holding worn, dirty hands to pray for their protection on the streets. It was the hardworking Dream Center workers continually meeting the needs of the homeless and needy in the city day after day, week after week. And watching the love of a woman, who lost 2 sons to violence, remain in the high crime area in order to make a difference in the community. I am so thankful that I could spend 1 week at the Dream Center to share the love of Jesus, but in doing so I feel I was the one who was blessed." - Patty F. (LA Dream Center)

Book Corner

Reading Nabeel's journey of encountering Jesus is thought-provoking and inspiring. As a deeply rooted Muslim, he was challenged to the core by the revelation that Jesus rose from the dead and claimed to be the true God. It's an encouraging story that powerfully demonstrates how Jesus always extends grace and never stops pouring out his love on us! Pick up a copy here!
