We wholeheartedly believe that all of life is spiritual. In other words, whether you are a student, businesswoman, teacher, doctor, farmer, or stay-at-home parent, we are always on mission. Mission is not reserved for those in “ministry”, but we instead all live on mission by making disciples wherever God has placed us. Below are specific organizations and individuals that we partner with in mission and purpose as we follow Jesus together.
LOCAL
YoungLives, Stanislaus County
YoungLives is a part of YoungLife and exists to see pregnant and parenting teen moms thrive. Through mentorship, community, and a life with Christ, YoungLives desires to see teen moms grow into their identity as being loved by God.
PRAYER REQUESTS
Pray for YoungLives to be able to network with teen moms in order to encourage them, support them, and ultimately show them God’s love.
Please be praying for the teen moms in Stanislaus County to find Christ-centered community.
On Monday nights YoungLives is looking for volunteers that are willing to help with one of these needs: mentorship for teen moms, childcare, dinner for mentors and teens, and monthly financial supporters. Contact: jennhutton11@gmail.com for more information.
Weave, Modesto
Weave, a Community Center, is the building Redeemer meets in and provides for the good of the community. Redeemer welcomes organizations and individuals who are ‘in the city for the city’ to use the building for meetings, large gatherings, parties, celebrations, conferences, performances, shows, and other events. This includes government, non-profits, schools, clubs, families, churches, and other organizations.
Redeemer’s heart is to invite people to use the building and digital sign as a way of furthering our mission to build purposeful relationships inside and outside the church so we can speak the love of God into each other’s lives.
GLOBAL
Global Partners are involved in holistic mission that engages in church planting. Global Partners consider Redeemer their primary sending church and desire a two‐way partnership where they receive regular prayer and financial support from Redeemer and in return provide regular updates by visiting Redeemer during furloughs and are open to the possibility of hosting short‐term teams/visitors from Redeemer to encourage and work alongside them in the field.
Ben & Aubree, Middle East
Ben & Aubree are working with a team operating a medical clinic for the local refugee population with the overall goal of seeing a movement of the Gospel in the local population. Ben works as a doctor in the clinic, and Aubree helps train local families who have children with special needs on how to better care for their children.
PRAYER REQUESTS
Please be praying for Dawn with freeing changes in her life but also coming with challenges as she tries to live in freedom but also be respectful and love those around her.
Rose and her husband continue to seek truth and just verbalized to us this week that they have really seen heart changes in their lives this year.
Ben’s grant to start family medicine training programs was accepted and he will start the process of forming the programs in January. Still a lot of work to see anything come to fruition, but this was a huge step.
Aubree’s brother’s family just moved to closer, at least for the time being. It is a dream come true to have all five cousin girls together.
People having dreams and getting to come alongside them - seeing amazing things!
