September 2025 Quarterly Newsletter

Dear Friends, as we move into the final quarter of this year, we want to extend our heartfelt thanks for your faithful support. Because of you, unexpected blessings continue to unfold across our community and around the world. When we serve others, we live out Christ’s love.

“Carry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.” (Galatians 6:2 ESV)

Smith House Update:

We are getting so close to finishing the Smith House in Green Turtle Cay, Bahamas! What started as a dream is now nearly complete, and we couldn’t be more grateful. The Smith family is beyond excited to see their home coming together, and we are too.

Thank you to everyone who has prayed, given, and supported this project along the way—you are making a lasting difference. Every prayer, every donation, and every act of generosity has brought us to this moment.

Together, we’re helping restore hope and provide a safe place for the Smith family to call home. If you’d like to read more about their story or contribute to the final stages of the build, you can click the button below!

Missionary Highlight: Missionary Training Ministry

Missionary Training Ministry (MTM) exists to equip missionaries and the churches that send them with the tools, encouragement, and training they need to carry out the Great Commission effectively. Through live events, online modules, and practical resources, MTM focuses on preparing missionaries for the unique challenges of cross-cultural ministry while also strengthening the role of local churches in supporting and sustaining their work. Their mission is not only to train individuals but to build confidence, clarity, and effectiveness in the sending process as a whole.

MTM offers free and accessible training opportunities, such as virtual workshops and summer mini-modules, along with resources tailored for both missionaries and church leaders. With a team of experienced leaders and teachers, MTM provides biblical insight, practical tools, and ongoing development to help missionaries thrive on the field and churches fulfill their calling as senders. They are sustained by donations and partnerships, making it possible to keep training open to all who are called to go or support those who do.

Mark Your Calendars!

We’re already starting preparations for our Annual Fundraising Banquet happening on Saturday, February 7, 2026, at 3:00 PM. This special evening is always a highlight of the year—a time to come together, celebrate what’s been accomplished, and rally support for what’s ahead.

We can’t wait to see everyone there and share an incredible time of fellowship, encouragement, and fun. As part of the evening, we’ll also be holding a silent auction and raffles, and we’d love your help. If you’re interested in donating items, now is the perfect time to let us know so we can begin putting everything together.

We’re looking forward to another unforgettable banquet with all of you!

Unexpected Blessings

July 2025

Your Giving Changed Her Story

A woman battling serious medical issues received urgent help thanks to your faithful generosity. Your support created a designated fund, made it possible to bring her to Florida to see a specialist, and opened the door to care she couldn’t access on her own. Because of you, healing is now possible, hope is renewed, and the love of Christ has been made tangible one need at a time.

Love in Every Detail

We were blessed to increase our monthly support to Hand to Hand, a ministry serving women in need of healing, stability, and restoration. We also provided a commercial washer and dryer for the ladies’ house, meeting a practical need that brings dignity and relief. Because of your generosity, these women experience ongoing care and Christ’s love in the small details—like clean clothes, warm bedding, and a fresh start.

August 2024

A Step Toward Stability

A young woman working to rebuild her life after hardship faced one major obstacle—reliable transportation. Because of your faithful generosity, we were able to purchase and donate a car, giving her stability and confidence to move forward. What once seemed impossible is now reality, as she can get to work, attend church, and care for her daily needs—all because you chose to be a blessing.

Blessing a Missionary Family

After years of faithfully serving in Peru, a missionary family visiting the U.S. received a special surprise—a day at Disney with their children. Thanks to your generosity, they enjoyed a joyful break filled with laughter, rest, and lasting memories together. This simple gift refreshed their spirits, delighted their children, and reminded them that their work matters and they are not forgotten.
