Send-off Sunday
EMILY IS GOING TO SANTANDER, SPAIN!
This past Sunday, we celebrated, we prayed, we cried, and we sent Emily Jones into the harvest that awaits in Santander, Spain. She’s off to join our recently planted sister church, Iglesia Gracia Soberana de Santander in order to advance their gospel mission.
What a privilege a little church like ours has to be a part of what God is doing across the globe. Spreading the joy of Jesus all the way from Santa Ana to Santander!

PRAY EARNESTLY TO THE LORD OF THE HARVEST (MT 9:38)
As we heard this past Sunday, there are specific ways we can be praying for Emily and Iglesia Gracia Soberana de Santander. Please join us as we pray for the following:
Pray for Emily’s travel as she gets on the plane this Friday and crosses the ocean for the sake of Christ.
Pray that the Lord would use her and the other members of IGSS to spread the aroma of Christ wherever they go and fuel them with faith for what he’ll do among them.
Pray for Pastor Norman Pedd and his wife Barbara, as they give their lives away so that the people of Spain might be saved.
Pray for the towns around the church location in Renedo - Soto de la Marina, Santa Cruz de Bean, Camargo, Parbayon, and the whole region of Cantabria in Northern Spain. As the church goes out on Saturdays to evangelize her neighbors and invite them to church, please pray this may bring fruit to the glory of God.
Pray for the building where they gather, that they would find favor in the owner of their building so they can continue to meet for the long term.
Pray for the people that are being added to the church, that they might grow in the Lord and may use their gifts and ministry to the edification of others and glory of God.
Pray for the church as her adoption into Sovereign Grace Churches is formalized in the year ahead.
