👀 Looking back at February

Houston, TX

We piloted our innovation workshop (Hack-in-a-Box) at West Houston Christian Church. Over 20 participants, inter-generational and cross-cultural, gathered to use design thinking and empathy building to address challenges their overseas global partners faced.

Alexandria, VA
We hosted a fundraiser dinner with 15 people and shared our vision and roadmap for 2024. We’re very grateful for each donor’s pledge to give and pray for our ministry.

Rockville, MD

We hosted another innovation workshop during a Sunday School at a church in the DC-Maryland-Virginia area. During this one-hour, we brainstormed new ideas to help the young adults take their next step in reaching their world.

Scottsdale, AZ

30 ministry leaders gathered at the Inno+Faith consultation to discuss innovation for the global missions movement. Everyone in the room from multiple generations were passionate about trying new things to take the Gospel to new people and places!

1,500 Followers on IG

Since our last newsletter, we’ve reached 1,500 followers on Instagram! We’ve been implementing a new strategy to engage our Gen Z audience, including memes and collaborations with artists.

 

Thank you for your prayer and support, which has made all of these opportunities possible!

 

“However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace.” – Acts 20:24
