During a Gathering in May 2026, we had a time of testimony and prayer for several local ministries and specific people who are considering missions as a way of life. Below are several photos taken that night. Maybe you will know some of the brothers and sisters who were there.
Pastor Jared welcomed everyone and a young college student, Finn, led us in worship. Finn did an excellent job and later we prayed for him as he is exploring becoming a church planter, either at home or abroad, as the Lord leads him after he graduates from Union University.
During our prayer and testimony time, we heard from Randy Nicholas who gave us a global update on the millions of children that CEF is reaching around the world – and their work in our local area. We also heard a powerful word of encouragement from T.C. Talley who is a counselor at Birth Choice, a crises pregnancy center. We also heard from Jake Mabile about the growth and location change for Ridgecrest Academy School.
God is good! This was a sweet night of fellowship as well and we finished with a nice meal and lots of laughter and encouragement at the tables.
Here are a few photos from this powerful night.
