Modern Day Missions – Kris Beall

War, poverty, and persecution have driven refugees from the Middle East to Europe. The majority are Muslims who need to assimilate into the local culture, find work, and hear the Gospel Of Jesus Christ. Modern Day Missions offers friendship, empowerment, and discipleship to these refugees so that they can build new lives, support their families, and hear the Gospel. Kris Beall is now preparing to intern with a ‘Business As Mission’ project in Nottingham, England called, ‘Banquet 1415.’ His mission is to build a business that employs refugees and exemplifies God’s excellence, demonstrates Christian business principles, and creates a life-giving community for their employees. Kris needs financial support and also asks for our prayers as he launches his business and ministers to refugees in England.

Proverbs 22:9 (NRSV)

Those who are generous are blessed,

St. Luke’s provides snack bags for the homeless during office hours, Monday – Friday. Many times each week, we answer the door to someone who is in need of something to eat. There is a small group of people within the church who help us keep the supplies ready to use but we often run low. Please consider dropping off any of the items listed below. There is a basket located in the Gathering area and you can drop off on Sunday mornings or anytime that is convenient for you.  Thank you.
