Athey Creek Missionary Support
At Athey Creek we have an opportunity as a congregation to support and pray for the work of missionaries that are connected with other missions organizations. Join us in praying for them and support these people as they share and minister the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the nations.
Holsby Bible School, Sweden
We’ve been blessed with the opportunity to teach Bible at a small international school in Sweden. Each year nearly 60 students from various countries come here to learn what it means to be a Christ-follower. The nine-month Bible program aims not only at informing the mind, but also transforming the heart. Our role here involves teaching, preaching, discipling, evangelism, coordinating, administration and loving a bunch of young people who want more of Jesus in their lives. We’re extremely grateful for our supportive Athey Creek community. Thanks so much for being a part of this ministry.
Prayer Requests
- Pray that God’s word would continue to be unwaveringly taught here.
- Pray that the community here would remain healthy and strong.
- Pray for our summer season and the opportunities we have to reach thousands of people with the gospel.
- Pray specifically for midsommar.
- Pray that our Swedish guests will hear and respond to the message.
- Rejoice with us as we praise the Lord for the renovation of our boys dorm and chapel.
- Rejoice with us as we praise the Lord for the lives that have been impacted this past year.
Wycliffe Bible Translation, Brazil
Mike and Kelli are working with Wycliffe as Bible translators in Brazil. Three years ago, they moved to Brazil, hoping to translate God’s Word into an indigenous language. They are building relationships in the communities and connecting with people in an effort to learn this intricate new language. Athey Creek Christian Fellowship is glad to support them prayerfully and financially. Last year they traveled to Dallas, Texas for a delicate skull surgery for their youngest daughter. While she was recovering, they also took a few linguistics courses and are now back in Brazil.
Prayer Requests
We praise the Lord for your continued prayers and for the opportunity to share our ministry with you. We are excited to be back in Brazil despite a hard first term and to be starting fresh in new jump-off town. We also praise Him for Lydia’s successful craniosynostosis surgery while in the States!
