Staying Connected at Home and Abroad

This morning I was able to be on a call with one of our Live Global branches to hear updates from teammates and partners serving in Serbia, Romania, Spain, Morocco, Thailand, as well as other locations throughout North and South America. It is always refreshing to stay informed about the work the Lord is doing through these men and women as they seek to make Christ known where he has placed them.

In a few hours, I will have lunch with 5-6 other pastors in the Hagerstown area. The Lord has allowed me some fellowship with these men already, and we have planned to meet once a month for discussion and encouragement.

Through both of these avenues, I am able to stay connected to other individuals and groups that are working together to see the Lord build his church in our part of the world but also throughout the globe. It gives us much for which to pray, and it keeps me from focusing only on what is right in front of me.

Of course, the work at Evangel Baptist Church has become a focus for us. We are beginning to find our rhythms for days and weeks. The people here at the church have continued to be very gracious, and we are glad for some new attenders who are expressing interest in membership. Pray for us as we build relationships, and pray for some outreach opportunities we expect to have as we near Good Friday and Easter.

I am so grateful for the continued prayer and financial support that the Lord has provided through so many of you to allow us to balance these roles. It is such a kindness of God, and one of the many ways that his love has been particularly evident to us (1 John 4:16).

Continue to pray for us, and let us know how we can pray for you as well.
