Please pray for Doris Goertz - our Global worker in Japan. Doris is working with the Amagasaki Mennonite Brethren Church, facilitating adult English classes, Bible studies, music, outreach, evangelism and discipleship. Though Doris is a lovely lady who grew up in Ontario - Japan has been her home for over two decades. Her love for the people is only matched by her love for Jesus. While in Canada, Doris will be connecting with her supporting churches and family as local Covid ...protocols allow. Doris is in Manitoba finishing up her quarantine and looking forward to meeting with supporters as regulations permit. You can support Doris financially or by a prayer note by going to https://multiply.net/global-worker/doris-goertz.

Opportunity to Give this Christmas season. https://multiply.net/project/myanmar-church-planting If you would like to try a bag of Lighthouse coffee - message us and we will arrange to have some delivered to you!

For more than ten years, Multiply has been investing in the Church in Myanmar through training local evangelists, developing church-planting teams, and equipping bi-vocational pastors through small, self-sustainable businesses. During that time, we’ve seen: 39 leaders trained, 20 churches planted, and 2 kingdom businesses started. ... One generous donor has already committed to match every dollar donated by December 15, 2020 toward this Myanmar Church-planting Initiative, up to $84,500 (half of what is needed). That means that, if you give by December 15, your gift will be doubled! Will you help us reach our goal so that Myanmar may know Jesus? Thank you for prayerfully considering this opportunity to give.
