A New Vision For Ministry


A new church home

What do you see when you look at the above picture? Some see an old building in need of repair. Others see a vacant structure that has out lived its original purpose. The Brethren Church in Trinec see a ministry hub that will help them reach their city for Christ!

What a joy it was to walk through the Brethren Church's new building last Thursday afternoon. Much work is needed before they can move in, but everyone is excited about how God can use this new tool for ministry. Click on the picture above to see a slideshow of the building and the many residential flats that surround it.

The generosity of the people of New Covenant helped make this vision a reality. We collected over $30,000 for the purchase of the building! One person who doesn't even attend their church contributed to the project. It's exciting to see how God has provided resources to fund His vision for ministry.

The church is committed to use this facility as an outreach center into the surrounding neighborhood. Pray that God would bless their efforts as they seek to bring Jesus to children and families in Trinec, Czech Republic. It's a privilege and honor to be able to come alongside this church as they seek to impact their culture for Christ.

The church in Trinec is being built one person at a time. God is building His church around the world. He is giving people a heart for the lost and a new vision for ministry.
