A Tale of Two Churches - Derek Osburn

Sorry for the late post today but it had been a busy one!  I love this video!  Reminds me of how our sending church Milton has given sacrificially to send us and plant another church.  Love it when God through is churches!

To learn more about Derek and his wife Sharla follow the link  here  to see their page.  We are praying today that the Vine community church will be seen as a place where sharing the gospel is a priority and where people are welcomed no matter where they have been in life.  For Derek and Sharla to model a Christian marriage and to be a strong witness for Christ within the community.

One more missionary video tomorrow.... see you then!

Why Are Doors Red? - Joshua Lenon

Today, I am posting a video of Josh and Tiffany Lenon, church planting missionaries in Cincinnati, Ohio.    Josh encourages his church to provide the community around them with a glimpse of heaven on earth.  Here is just one of the stories that illustrates the way God is using Red Door church to reach out to their neighbours.

Join our family today we pray for Josh and Tiffany Lenon.  Pray for God to develop an evangelistic heart among the members of Red Door church so that every member can be leading someone to Christ and discipling him or her in a one on one relationship. Pray for God to strengthen the church's partnership with the International Mission Board Missionaries working among an unreached people group. Red Door hopes to start a new church among this people group.  Pray that God will intertwine the hearts of the two young church plants. 

If you want to know more about Josh and Tiffany and want to see their longer video visit their Annie Armstrong page here.

Remember to check back tomorrow to learn more about what God is doing in through the lives of Derek and Sharla Osburn in Clovis, New Mexico

Where Everybody Knows Your Name - Shaun Pillay

Shaun and his wife Deshni are church planting missionaries in Norwich, Connecticut.  Not long after they arrived from South Africa to their new home in Norwich, Shaun met a man named David, a former drug user and dealer.  Shaun invested in this man and began to walk with him and told him about Jesus.  The result of that investment was that David's life was changed and he now serves the church and is sharing the gospel with others in his city.  This is a great God story.

A second video tells the story of how in 2007 Shaun and his wife sold everything they had and left their home in South Africa to follow God's call.  They arrived with two pieces of luggage,  a bible and their wedding album.  The story that God is telling through their lives is pretty amazing and you can watch it and read a little more about them here.

Please join us in praying for them today as they seek out opportunities to share Christ with the nationalities in Norwich and pray that Cornerstone International Church which they have planted reaches out and disciples people wherever they are - under bridges, in soup kitchens or on the streets.
