Nothing can thwart the plans of our omnipotent God as His gospel is spread throughout all the earth! This is a promise from Jesus' own lips -- the gospel of the kingdom of God will be preached in the entire world to all the earth's people groups.
At Valley Community, we currently have the privilege of partnering with two families who have gone to work in foreign lands with a desire to teach and preach the Word of God to those who are prohibited from worshipping Jesus Christ freely. As Matthew 24:9 indicates, it will not be without opposition. However, the joys of sharing the truth of the gospel with those who are hungry, and seeing some make the decision to become a Christ-follower is worth every challenge and obstacle they've faced along the way.
How can you pray for our global partners today and in the days to come?
"This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all the nations." -- Matthew 24:14a

How can you pray for our global partners today and in the days to come?
- Pray that they would keep their focus on God and remain faithful in their own personal Bible study time.
- Pray for boldness in sharing the gospel and preaching the truths of God's Word.
- Ask the Lord to give them rest, encouragement, and friendship.
- Pray for their marriages to be strong and for wisdom in parenting.
- Pray for unity with coworkers.
And in the meantime, pray for doors of opportunity here in our places of work, in worship, and at home.
