Good Evening Church Family! God is able and faithful! What an amazing day we had on Sunday going over all the many praise reports of what God is doing around the world in Missions!! We shared that this past year was the largest missions offering to date for Redeemed Church!!! We had $29, 578.50 come in for Missions!!! Thank you Lord!! And thank you to all of Redeemed Church Family! We also crossed a new milestone for our Church Family and we have now given $215,239.14 to missions over the past 14 years!! We made it over the $200,000 mark!! Again, what an amazing testimony of God's faithfulness and your obedient hearts. We also had the most people give over their pledged amount this year that we have ever had before!!! It was an incredible year for missions. We started our missions giving in memory of my best friend, Christine. She had such a huge heart for missions and had been to Mexico several times. She would be blown away to see how much has been given to missions over the past 14 years because I know I am. So many lives have been touched by your generous hearts and we are just getting started!! Please keep all our missionaries and missions ministries in prayer as we head into our next year of giving.
Togo... Oikos Training School - They have started a new extension of this ministry! Not only are they still doing discipleship training schools at the complex, they are now going out to different areas all over Togo doing training schools!! We also had an update from Mr. D and the community he is building for the kids that are coming out of trafficking in the area. He is one building away from being done with all the buildings he will need to start bringing in the kids!!! AND we are going to be able to help him financially to be able to get all the materials to build it!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!
Mexico... The Mishler's are doing great and seeing God continue to move in Mexico. They are going to be doing several smaller pastor conferences this year and will have another big conference next year. They already did one of the smaller conferences and pastors are getting refreshed and ministered to! This is such an amazing concept because when the pastors are refreshed the churches are refreshed! When the pastors are on fire, they set the church on fire!! This is going to create Holy Spirit fires of revival all over Mexico! PRAISE GOD FOR HIS INSPIRED IDEAS FOR REACHING MORE PEOPLE!!!
Japan... The Hiraguri family had a harder year last year losing Akira's aunt and mom but we are believing for God to take the seeds that Akira and Melanie have planted in Akira's family and cause something beautiful to grow this year! Each person in their family have different ministries to different groups of people and they are all blooming where they are planted and people are seeing a difference in their lives! One of the biggest things that Akira is doing is Hello Jesus live outdoor concerts! People gather to hear the music and it is all Christian words and messages. This is an incredible opportunity for Japanese people to come in contact with Jesus. PRAISING GOD FOR THE HARVEST ON THE SEEDS THAT HAVE BEEN PLANTED!!!
Romania... Star of Hope, Aura, Audi and Family... They had a wonderful camp for the kids with disabilities last year and they are gearing up for another one!! We heard the amazing testimony of the little boy who couldn't walk that got to go into the sea and swim with other kids. He was so blessed and told his dad, "Look, I am just like all the other kids now. I never want to leave this place!" These precious children and their families get to come to this camp for free and experience all kinds of wonderful memories. Parents are given breaks and other capable, trained adults are able to be with the kids having fun. It is such a precious ministry to the children of Romania! PRAISING GOD FOR A WONDERFUL CAMP LAST YEAR AND ANOTHER ONE THIS YEAR!!
Israel... Netivyah, Joseph & Maria Shulam... There is so much going on in Netivyah. They are feeding more people through their food outreach programs and even the local government is turning to them to help families in need with food! They are continuing to minister to the IDF with care boxes, military supplies and physical encouragement - talking with soldiers and bringing kindness to them in person. Their Houses of Healing are going strong as well! These apartments are fully set up and ready to house people who come into the area for medical care. It is a place for their families to be while they are in the hospital. We saw two praise reports from families who were able to use the apartments this past year. Both said they didn't just get a place to live but food to eat and people to come alongside in their time of need. PRAISING GOD FOR ALL THAT NETIVYAH IS DOING IN ISRAEL AND BELIEVING FOR EVERY FINANCIAL NEED TO BE MET FOR THEM THIS NEXT YEAR!!
God is working all over the world and we are able to partner with each of these ministries in what God is doing through them. What an amazing gift to be able to know that our financial seed is helping reach people in each of these places. Through missions we are fulfilling part of what Redeemed Church was called to do... Embrace the World! Thank you again for being such an amazing Church Family! "God is not mocked: for whatever a man sows, that shall he also reap." Galatians 6:3 You have sown into good soil in each of these ministries and I know that you will reap a bountiful harvest! Not only in finances but in the lives of your loved ones as you have sown into the lives of others. Have a blessed rest of your week, Church Family and let's keep being people God can flow through to touch the world!! Blessings, Pastors Sheli and Steve Livengood
