Severance Church Plant
Roger Everhart has spearheaded a church planting effort in recent years to the neighboring town of Severance. Since launching, he has been recognized as a pastor of the church in Severance! We are raising money to continue freeing up part of his time to devote himself to those church-planting efforts.
International Student Ministry
Utilizing her outreach and language experience, April longs to bring the gospel to the 2,500 international students from 110+ nations at CSU. Raised funds will help enable her ongoing international campus outreach for the ’25-’26 school year.
Middle East
Six individuals from Summitview are planning to move to various locations in the Middle East. Five of those six are currently raising funds with staggered arrivals between 2025-27. Each will initially focus on language learning, with the hope of gospel sharing among unreached people.
Japan
We have been supporting missions work in Japan in different ways for several years. Becky and Dusty are both part of teams that are doing gospel work among what could be considered the largest unreached people group in the world.
Asia
Some of the most unreached peoples live in a cluster of countries in Central Asia. With fresh teammates and opportunities, Emily will continue laboring in a Central Asian country with the goal of bringing the gospel to a specific unreached people group.

In 2022, Patrick married Karina, and then completed his PhD at the end of 2023. Patrick and Karina now both work in Hong Kong while helping to lead the church and disciple young people.
