Right now, families in Nepal are waiting for answers.

A devastating flash flood swept through communities along Nepal’s border with Tibet today, destroying homes, roads and other infrastructure. Dozens of fatalities have been reported, and hundreds remain missing as search and rescue efforts continue.

Please pray:
🙏 For families grieving the loss of loved ones
🙏 For those still waiting and searching for family members
🙏 For rescue workers working through dangerous conditions
🙏 For those who have lost homes, livelihoods and everything they own
🙏 For churches and believers in Nepal to have opportunities to serve, bring comfort and share the hope of Jesus

Pray for Nepal today. 🇳🇵❤️

We’ll continue to share updates as more information becomes available. IMB

Did you know 98% of churches have less than 250 people?

Let’s be clear: we won’t demonize large churches. Many are doing incredible, faithful work.

But if you lead or attend a smaller church, you need to hear this too — Jesus never made “size” His measuring stick for importance. He picked a small team of ordinary people — and changed the world.

Every church — no matter the size — plays an important role in God’s kingdom.
We all have the same assignment:
✅ Faithfulness to Jesus and His mission.
✅ Stewarding the people/resources He has entrusted to you.

Live boldly. Preach faithfully. Give generously. Pray desperately.
Trust God with the results.

Ladies, you're invited to the Better Together Women's Conference with Andrea Lennon! This August, you'll have three opportunities to attend—August 14, 15, or 16—at locations across Michigan. Simply choose the date and location that works best for you!

Throughout Scripture, we see women who discovered that following God was never meant to be done alone. Join us as we explore the lives of biblical women who demonstrate the power of walking together, encouraging one another, and carrying each other's burdens. You'll leave challenged, encouraged, and equipped to build meaningful, Christ-centered relationships.

Best of all, this event is completely FREE! Gather your friends, choose your location, and register today—we can't wait to see you there!
