Activating Unified Gospel Initiatives
Word from the Director
Do you ever feel like the nation and the world are shaking around you? It seems like we go from one crazy day to the next in terms of the sensationalist "instant news" of social media and the increasingly partisan pushes of mainstream media outlets. It can straight up raise your anxiety level, unless . . . you unplug and learn about some of the ways devoted believers are engaging our world.
Did you know that a number of churches in the Sacramento area have started their year with a 21 day fast? In Fresno, dozens of churches are doing the same - together - in what has become a tradition in that city. Hearing from God and doing his work together - so good.
How about grass roots work to make a difference right where you live? Big Day of Service 2019 is in the active planning stages for the communities of Orangevale and Fair Oaks. These kinds of service projects are actively promoted by Loving Our Cities in Modesto, CA where the next Love Modesto is coming up again in April.
And how about people and churches realizing and taking action to engage in relationships and talk about the goodness of knowing God through Jesus Christ? Intervarsity's annual Urbana missions conference at the end of December was packed with eager Gen Z and Millennial believers ready to commit their lives to service and mission. And, the Send coming up in February will fill Camping World Stadium in Orlando for a day of prayer and commission for those present to be activated to live out the lifestyle of Jesus. MissionHub is doing this for people and entire churches through an app designed to activate daily missional living with those whom we live work, learn and play.
Be encouraged. Be engaged. Be hopeful.
