Pray for LUIS & BEATRIZ SOTO in WEST VALLEY, UTAH

Born in Puerto Rico, Luis had a love for missions. He moved his

family to Utah, where Mormonism touches every part of the

culture, including the more than 300,000 Hispanic residents.

Most Hispanics work two or three jobs in West Valley. When Luis

sees hardworking men come to a weeknight church event, he

knows they are serious about the Lord and hold potential to become new planters.

“We need more planters to start more churches that can communicate truth,” says Luis. “In a place where

it seems like everyone is Mormon, it’s easy to feel alone. But I know our church, the people we’re

sending out and the many who support us through the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering are part of

something bigger. One day very soon, we’re going to have Hispanic churches sharing the gospel all over

Utah.”

Pray for ROB & LISA WARREN in MADISON, WISCONSIN

Madison, Wisconsin is a college town—one of the most liberal in the nation. “There’s more than 40,000

college students and most are unreached by the gospel,” says Rob, “So many people have tried to start

churches here and failed. Maybe we should feel nervous about that, but, more than anything, we are

energized.”

Rob and Lisa love college kids because they exist in a season of life where they can question everything

and are often open to discussing spiritual issues. The family moved from Ames, Iowa to Madison to plant

Doxa Church in the fall of 2018.

“We couldn’t wait to get here and get started. The amazing thing about planting in a college community

is that we don’t just make converts, we make missionaries. Many who accept Jesus and see their lives

change in college, then graduate and share the good news to others in their workplaces and

neighborhoods.”

PLEASE Pray & Give!

Book of the Week recommendation:

A Dime a Dozen - 3rd book in The Million Dollar Mystery Series. (Christian fiction mystery)

Written by Mindy Starns Clark

“ ‘He would never leave us.’

Just like that, business investigator Callie Webber finds herself involved in the life of a young wife and mother whose husband has

disappeared...possible the victim of foul play.

‘I won’t go away until my husband comes back,’ Luisa said, her face threatening to crumble into tears once again. [ ]

‘Callie has come to the beautiful Smoky Mountains hoping to award a million-dollar grant to the charity set up in

her late husband’s honor. But in the search for a missing migrant worker, a body is discovered, which puts the grant on hold and her new romance with her mysterious boss in peril. Trusting in God, Callie forges steadily ahead through a mire

of clues that lead her deeper and deeper into danger.”

CHURCH HISTORY CORNER

Hi! Its me again your Librarian, but I am also the WLBC Historian. which I am very honored to be. Every Wednesday I will be adding something to the E-Bulletin about the history of the church. I

have learned so much just by reading the minutes. And that is where we are going to start today.

The 1st minutes were recorded on November 1, 1905 when the church was organized. You can see those minutes on the Church History Bulletin Board. Thank you for entrusting me to learn and

share the History of West Lynchburg.
