Mission ’16

Brazil-Map-2pola-MMAP-mdIn six months, we have the privilege of sending two mission teams abroad. A team of 15 will be heading to Brazil to assist Earl Haubner and his crew, of Central Brazil Mission on their medical mission boat as it sails up the Amazon River. Leaving about the same time, the Porter family will be returning to Camp Ostróda, Poland to minister to families dealing with the scars from the Holocaust. Although you cannot personally go, you can be part of their mission by being prayer partners and your financial support.

Porters Seeking Ministry Partners

the-body-of-christ-open (1)RCC is truly obeying The Great Commission!  We want to once again thank all who have supported us in the past, and we are excited that RCC will send at least 18 people to make disciples in 2016.  With so many short term missionaries to fund this year, we are seeking ministry partnerships – just a few committed supporters giving monthly for 6 months will give us all we need to go.  We don’t want to take anything away from the Brazil trip’s fundraising efforts.  For more information and to sign up, please see the Missions Bulletin Board or visit journeyback.org.   THANK YOU!
Ben, Rachel, Anna & Ethan Porter.

 

Porter Poland Progress!

Thank you doesn’t begin to describe the gratitude for the dozens of people that contributed food, helped set up and clean up, but also to the 80+ people who attended and gave so generously.  We shared some slides of trips to Poland and talked about the work God is doing that we are so blessed to be part of.  In the end we raised $2806!  Just $194 short of the amount we still needed for our airfare, and that gap should be filled when I collect money from bracelet orders this week!  What a huge blessing that we can purchase our plan tickets.  I just confirmed that the price hasn’t started going up yet.  Poland… here we come!

We still have $2500 needed for ground transportation, lodging and ministry expenses.  Rumor has it that a couple of RCC Sunday School classes decided to support us this morning, which is not included in this total and should help move us toward that.  Again… thank you!  We’ll need to cover this amount by early May, so your financial support is still needed and appreciated. We’ll make big announcements when we reach the final goal, but you can also follow our progress on our FINANCIAL SUPPORT page.

We can’t begin to express our gratitude.  If you had any part in this … from prayer, to helping out, purchasing a bracelet or a donation of any amount – we thank you.  You are growing the Kingdom of God.

Porters in Poland

IMG_0061God continues to call the Porters to service in Poland.  They are willing and ready, but they need your support to be able to return this June.  Join them for after 2nd service on April 6 for a special dinner, pictures, stories and more information about their family missionary work.  A free-will offering will be taken to help cover the cost of airfare.

You can read more about their work, contribute online or buy a handmade bracelet in support of their trip at journeyback.org.  Bracelets will also be available at the Welcome Center starting March 30.  Post a comment or e-mail Ben and Rachel with any questions!
