The Luke 10 Exploration Trip currently taking place in NE Brazil is going well! The team there sent us a great update as well as some photos! Join us in continued prayers for this group as they finish up their time in Brazil and come home next week!⁠

"We are so grateful for your prayers on our behalf. We sense our Lord's presence as we visit many of the church plants and ministries of a potential partner in World Renewal - Northeast Brazil. Their ministry center is in Carpina, Brazil a short distance from Recife. We leave tomorrow on a journey 500 kilometers west of the coastal city of Recife to an area possibly less than 5% evangelized. We will have better insight into discerning future EFM missionary field possibilities once we visit the "Sertao" region over the next several days." ⁠

Please join us in prayer for the country of Haiti

Please join us in prayer for the country of Haiti and specifically for Pastor Raul, one of our EFC pastors in Haiti. His village was recently overrun by a violent gang. As a result, Pastor Raul and his family were forced to flee their home. Since the assassination of the Haitian president in July 2021, the nation has increasingly descended into political and social unrest. As of now, there are no elected officials in the existing government. Kidnappings, rape, and violent crimes continue to rise dramatically in the midst of the power vacuum.⁠
.⁠
EFM missionaries, William and Marie Bertrand, are currently in Florida, unable to return to Haiti at this time because gangs control the roads between the airport and their home.⁠
.⁠
Head to the blog for four specific ways you can join us in prayer. Link in bio!⁠

I am now nine weeks post-surgery and amazed at how our bodies can endure (what the ICU nurse called) a “serious insult” and recover...In the meantime, my current response to different opportunities is to say “yes”."⁠
