Join Us In Prayer
May 2022
Every time I think of you, I give thanks to my God. Whenever I pray, I make my requests for all of you with joy, for you have been my partners in spreading the Good News about Christ from the time you first heard it until now.
Philippians 1:3-5

Partners in prayer, oh, how we treasure you! Thank you for holding us up as we journey with Jesus on this shepherd leadership road. Thank you for holding up our brothers and sisters in Christ around the world who are dedicating time, energy, and resources to implementing and multiplying the shepherding message. Oh, how we treasure you all!
May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace…
May God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you grace and peace…
What Happened in April
And I want you to know, my dear brothers and sisters, that everything that has happened to me here has helped to spread the Good News.

What's Next
For I fully expect and hope that I will never be ashamed, but that I will continue to be bold for Christ, as I have been in the past. And I trust that my life will bring honor to Christ, whether I live or die.
