A Steadfast Faith Church-Planting in the Mountain West for the purpose of sharing the Gospel and establishing steadfas

Although we both grew up along the eastern coast, our hearts and vision are firmly planted in the West. Elizabeth is originally from Massachusetts, while James grew up throughout Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Alabama. God brought us both to Bob Jones University in Greenville, South Carolina, where we met our freshman year. In 2003, we both participated in mission teams to the Western US. God used that s

ummer of ministry to call each of us individually to return someday with the Gospel. Through those mission teams, our eyes were opened to the great spiritual need throughout the Western US. Our hearts were broken as we began to realize how many thousands of Americans had never known the hope or life-giving power of the true gospel of Jesus Christ, and we were especially burdened by the vast darkness of spiritual oppression that lay over the West, especially the Wyoming-Idaho-Utah region… the bastion of Mormonism. God worked through that burden to call both us (respectively) to carry the light of the true Gospel into the heart of the West. Our desire is to see souls freed from the bo***ge of deception by the power of Jesus Christ! A few years later, our common interest in theology and shared burden for the West brought us together, and we eventually married in July 2007. Since then, we have been preparing to serve as missionary church planters through further academic training and faithfully ministering within our local church. After a dozen years of prayer and preparation, we are excited to be in the region God has called us to serve! Currently, we are serving an internship at Grace Baptist Church in Kemmerer, Wyoming. This time is critical for us as we acclimate to the culture and climate of the West, both of which are much different from where we grew up out East! We are both involved in serving the local church body through preaching and teaching, music ministry, and weekly Bible studies; and are also actively seeking to reach out into the community through jail ministry, weekly visitation, and simply being involved in various local events and meetings. Additionally, we are currently working to plant a church in Cokeville, WY. Cokeville, is a small community an hour north of Kemmerer and is predominately LDS with estimates that 98%-99% of the population belong to the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints.

We have an urgent prayer request! Pray that our church plant page will be fixed (we submitted a trouble ticket) and allowed to livestream again via Facebook Live. We have been using it for years, but now it says we have to 100 followers in order to livestream. Also, if you could share our Cokeville Community Church page with others to follow it so we can possibly hit that 100 followers and be allowed to livestream again.
