✨ Word of the Week: Naʿar (נַעַר) ✨

05/29/2026

🌎🇭🇳 There is something deeply important about young people witnessing the world beyond their own.

Missions have a way of reshaping perspective.

What begins as a trip often becomes something much deeper;
a realization that the Kingdom of God
stretches far beyond our own
routines, comforts, and understanding. 🌿

Through Christ, we begin to see people differently.

Not as strangers across borders,
but as brothers and sisters carrying the same image of God,
gathered beneath the same name of Jesus. 🤲

We often leave thinking we are going to teach,
only to discover how much we ourselves are being taught.

✨Taught through joy that exists without abundance.
✨Through generosity shared by those with little.
✨Through faith that remains steady in hardship.
✨Through communities that remind us what it looks like to truly depend on Christ each day.

In the dawn of life,
these sacred experiences etch eternal truths upon the heart,
planting seeds that will root deeply and flourish for a lifetime;

A wider perspective.
A softer heart.
A deeper gratitude.
A bolder faith.

Not a faith that only fills church pews,
but a faith that learns to walk,
serve,
listen,
and love like Jesus.

Sometimes the moments that stay with us are unexpectedly small;
a prayer whispered in another language,
dust on your shoes after walking unfamiliar roads,
children laughing in places the world forgot to notice,
or the quiet realization that Christ was already moving long before we arrived. ✨

The kind of moments that change how you see people.
How you serve.
How you pray.
How you carry the heart of Christ into everyday life. 🕊️

We wanted to share a few reflections from previous Honduras trips because sometimes testimony speaks louder than explanation.

Take a moment to be enlightened 🤍

For years, the Galloways have faithfully served throughout Eastern Europe;
walking alongside communities,
discipling believers,
supporting church plants,
and loving people in places often overlooked.
Rooted in Jesus Christ, their lives reflect what it means to quietly and consistently follow where Christ leads. 🌱

Once again, we have the blessing of welcoming them here to JFM!

Join us for an evening of fellowship, dinner, and powerful stories of how God is moving across nations. Come hear firsthand how the Gospel is bringing hope, restoration, and transformation through everyday acts of faithfulness. 🤍

✨Word of the Week: Messiah ✨

05/19/2026

🌱 Across fields, conference rooms, churches, and communities, the Gospel continues to take root.

What a beautiful reminder that ministry is rarely confined to one place. Sometimes it looks like teaching Scripture around a table. Sometimes it looks like hands in the soil, planting seeds that will one day feed others. Sometimes it looks like gathering believers together across nations to encourage, equip, and strengthen the Body of Christ. 🤍

We are so grateful for our partners in Bulgaria and the faithfulness they continue to walk in. Thank you for serving with humility, pouring into others, and carrying the heart of Jesus wherever He leads you.

Please continue praying for strength, wisdom, protection, and fruitful harvest over every conversation, every conference, every seed planted, and every life being discipled. 🌍🙏

📜 “The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose,
and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor.
For we are co-workers in God’s service;
you are God’s field,
God’s building” (1 Corinthians‬ ‭3‬:‭8‬-‭9‬).

🌍✨ Thank You for Stopping By Our GO Brunch Table! ✨🥐☕

Between services today,
we had the opportunity to
share a simple grab-and-go brunch,
hand out updates about Global Outreach,
and connect with so many wonderful people from our church family. 🌿

One of the beautiful things about
the Kingdom of God is that
Jesus does not leave
His people as orphans,
but comes near to us
through the Spirit of truth
who lives within us (John 14: 16-18).

Sometimes His presence
is revealed in the simplest moments;
through welcome,
through shared conversation,
through hospitality,
through listening well,
and through the quiet ways we make space to love and care for one another. 🤲

This Sunday’s message
on the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats
reminded us that the heart of Jesus
is deeply attentive to people.
Compassion is not meant to remain an idea we talk about,
but something lived out through everyday acts of love and hospitality.

Thank you to everyone who
stopped by,
asked questions,
grabbed brunch,
or took time to learn more about what God is doing through our Global Outreach partners around the world. 🕊️🌎

📜 “Whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me” (Matthew 25:40).

🌱 Seeds planted in healthy soil do not stay dormant forever.
In time,
They take root.
They grow.
They bear fruit.

The same is true within the Kingdom of God;

📜“For as the soil makes the sprout come up and a garden causes seeds to grow,
so the Sovereign Lord will make righteousness and praise spring up before all nations.”
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭61‬:‭11‬ ‭

The deeper life in Christ begins
when we recognize
that everything we have
has first been generously
entrusted by Him.

When our roots grow deeper in Christ,
our lives begin to overflow outward;
through Generosity,
through Service,
through Encouragement,
and through the simple Willingness to say,
“Lord, use what You have placed in my hands.” 🤲

Some are called to go across nations. 🌎
Some are called to serve quietly behind the scenes.
Some water the soil through prayer, 🙏
hospitality,
and open tables. 🥖🥣

Yet all of it becomes part of how God grows His Kingdom;
not through pressure,
but through purpose.

“Just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord,
continue to live your lives in Him,
rooted and built up in Him,
strengthened in the faith as you were taught,
and overflowing with thankfulness.”
‭‭Colossians‬ ‭2‬:‭6‬-‭7‬ ‭

💌 As we prepare for Brunch on the GO this Sunday,
may we remember that missions begins long before a plane ticket.
It begins in hearts deeply rooted in Christ;
hearts willing to pour outward so others may encounter His love. 🕊️✨
