Saved People, Serve People--Missionary Partners develop fully devoted followers of Christ

Kevin and Jill Kane (Encompass, Cambodia)

All around the world, Grace Church values people.  We believe that a relationship with Jesus is life's most important relationship. Therefore, we are committed to sharing the Good News about Jesus in this community and around the world. 

People matter to God. People matter to us.  

As Jesus said of the lost sheep and applied it to all people, "In the same way your Father in Heaven is not willing that any of these little ones should be lost (Matthew 18:14)."   

Lisa, Jonathan, and Bruce Triplehorn (Encompass, Brazil/Chad)

The Bible challenges us to pray. Join us today to pray for our missionary partners around the world as they prepare for reaching out to develop fully devoted followers of Christ in North America, South America, Europe, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, and Africa.  I am highlighting our missionary partners who have come from Grace Church. Grace Church partners with over 75 different organizations, families and individuals.

Dave and Susie Hobert

Email Hobie and Susie

Mission Location: Paray-la-Monial, France 

Sending Agency: Encompass World
 
Our Missionary Partner: People matter to God. People matter to us.  Grace church values people--saved people serve people.  Dave & Susie Hobert have spent their lifetime serving the French people in the Burgundy region of Southern France.  God called them to develop fully devoted followers of Christ in France as missionary partners from Grace Church. 


Their Mission: The Hobert's live in Paray-la-Monial in a city known as the city of the Sacred Heart.  For the past year, God has prompted them to start a Gospel Discovery Group in Paray.  They have conducted "faith walks" where a 6-mile trek in the countryside offers a chance for a testimony, a challenge, or a discussion about faith in Jesus with friends and neighbors.  Dave & Susie have helped launch a monthly church gathering in Paray at the local cultural center where there is space to share their faith in Jesus.  You can learn more about their ministry in France by visiting their Encompass World webpage.

Does prayer makes a difference?

Hobert's Give Prayer Requests

"And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints (Ephesians 6:18)."

This morning the Lord prompted me to be thankful for the prayers of the saints. Wooster Grace has a group of people who pray for God's work and for God's leaders in His Church. They meet monthly during the summer. For the school year, the group meets every Friday.  Gathering to pray for the praises and prayer requests in our ministries, each person hears how God is at work and how best to intercede. I praise God for saints who pray.

What a great God! He works through the prayers His people by the Holy Spirit to bring glory to God.  Join a prayer group or start a prayer group for your church, a partnering ministry, or department in your church. I praise the Lord for our prayer group at Wooster Grace. They uphold the church ministers and their ministries in prayer.  Way to go Pastor's Prayer Partners! Prayer makes a difference!
