Week of Prayer for North American Missions - Day 8 Week of Prayer for North American Missions - Day 8

MORE THAN A GIFT 

There’s a group of people with a unique view of how God abundantly uses the Week of Prayer and Annie Armstrong Easter Offering. Those are the featured missionaries. 

Jefferson and Carol Hernandez were profiled in 2024. Afterward, their church plant in Sterling, Virginia, more than doubled in size. “We heard from thousands of churches that were praying for us,” Jefferson says. “God answered those prayers in a big way.” 

Churches all over North America also heard Josh and Beth Glymph’s ministry story and sent mission teams to Jacksonville, Florida, to help reach their community. “Now, we have more churches coming and partnering with us,” Josh says. “You can’t put a price tag on that.” 

Thousands of encouragement cards and letters from church groups and individuals—“it felt like a tsunami”—landed in Matt and Ruth Lahey’s mailbox in St. John’s, Newfoundland. “We’re not alone,” Matt says. “Just knowing that fueled us to keep going in planting our church.” 

God is going above and beyond through the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering. You are a vital part. Your prayer for a missionary is more than a few spoken words. Your gift is much more than a gift. 

PRAY FOR:
•  North American missionaries to reach more lost people who need the hope and love of Christ. 
•  North American missionaries to have all the resources and encouragement they need to plant churches and meet needs.
•  God to call and equip more missionaries to make Jesus known in North America.

Oscar and Wendy Ortiz: Dream Big
RÍO GRANDE, PUERTO RICO

Their church plant is small. But their vision is big.

When Oscar Ortiz started Iglesia Bautista Esperanza Eterna in Río Grande, Puerto Rico, he knew one new church would not be enough.

“We desperately needed to plant more churches. So did we wait until we had more people? No. We prayed for help. And God answered.” ~ Oscar Ortiz

“Here, there are 46,000 people and almost no gospel witness,” Oscar says. “We can’t wait until we have lots of people and resources. We need to plant more churches now.”

Fortunately, Oscar and his wife, Wendy, have help. Send Relief, Southern Baptists’ compassion ministry arm, is sending volunteer mission teams to Loíza, a needy community where Oscar and Wendy hope to plant another new work. “Loíza is a spiritually dark place,” Wendy says, “but by serving the community, Send Relief is helping open doors for us there. They’re repairing homes and enabling us to build witnessing relationships.”

Now, a foundation is being laid for what will one day be a new church in Loíza. “We want to be a church plant that plants churches,” Oscar says. “And even though we’re small, now we’re seeing how God is able to do so much more with us than we can imagine.”

Prayer Requests
• Send Relief teams to connect Oscar and Wendy to more people in Loíza who are open to hearing the gospel.
• God to raise up leaders in the church plant who can help start and grow a new work in Loíza.
• Doors to open in other nearby communities that need a gospel presence.

Troy and Chanel Gause: A God-Sized Story
MARRERO, LOUISIANA

It was the parking lot that got their attention.

Leon and Javon Every had been driving by the Baptist church on Ames Boulevard for years, but they’d never seen anything momentous happening there. It wasn’t until one morning when they noticed a suddenly packed parking lot that their curiosity got the better of them.

“Seeing all the people we’ve baptized since we replanted here—it says something to the community. It says God’s not finished with Marrero, Louisiana.” ~ Troy Gause

“Out of the blue,” Javon says, “we said, ‘We should go to that church.’ So the next Sunday, we went. And the rest is history.”

That new life at an old church was the result of God calling church planting missionaries Troy and Chanel Gause. They joined with the struggling congregation of what had been Ames Boulevard Baptist Church and, together, they birthed Cross Community Church to reach people like the Everys.

“The Everys were unchurched,” Troy says. “We got to know them and learned that even though they’d been together for 35 years, they weren’t married.”

“They gave us a beautiful wedding, and we kept going back every Sunday,” Javon says. “We brought our family, and seven of our kids and grandkids got saved. It’s amazing. I always wanted us all to follow Jesus, and this new church—this is how it happened.”

Prayer Requests
• More of Leon and Javon’s family to hear the gospel and give their lives to Christ.
• God to draw more unchurched families from the surrounding community to the new church.
• Troy and Chanel to continue to faithfully represent Christ and His kingdom.
