Be All In For Others, All In For Christ: 24-Hour Give!

Oct 31, 2024

Becoming A Barnabas

In the book of Acts, we read about a great example of someone who went ALL IN to support Christ’s followers – Barnabas. He sold his fields and gave the proceeds to the apostles. He preached and taught alongside Paul for many years and helped start churches throughout Asia and Europe. Because Barnabas went ALL IN, he made a huge impact on the world and was an encourager of others serving on the frontlines of Gospel outreach. Acts 11:24 says of him, “For he was a good man, and full of the Holy Ghost and of faith: and much people was added unto the Lord.”

That’s our heart at Friends In Action – that “much people” would be added unto the Lord! We can join our hearts, our dollars, and our efforts to go ALL IN to support those reaching the nations for Jesus!

Pastor Earnest Is ALL In For Africa!

Pastor Earnest is ALL IN as he pastors a tiny church with a handful of believers in a region of Africa that is 98% Muslim. Because his teachings about Jesus and his Bible are considered taboo, Pastor Earnest and his congregation are not welcome to use nearby water sources. Instead, he pays to bring water to his family and those who worship. Previous attempts at drilling a well were unsuccessful, but by faith, he reached out to FIA for help. We joined our prayers with Pastor Earnest, and God provided a miracle when we hit the cleanest, best-tasting water at only 60 meters down!

“The well means I can spend more time ministering to the villagers, and they can see that our well is different because we welcome all people to come and drink. As they visit the water source, they realize the Gospel is a message of love.” ~ Pastor Earnest

Water Projects

Please remember Pastor Earnest and FIA’s water projects in Africa and Vanuatu as you pray on November 22. Your gifts to FIA’s Where Needed Most Fund can be allocated to teaching villagers about Jesus, the Living Water, through your doubled dollars!

Pastor Iver Is ALL In For Bolivia!

Although the only believer in his family, Iver committed himself to learning about Jesus’s teachings by attending a small church in his village. By age 15, he entered a soccer academy and played for the university team. Displaying extraordinary skill, Iver became a professional soccer player for a Bolivian league. Despite his success, Iver felt God calling him to be ALL IN to a life of ministry. He left his position of prestige and attended seminary to prepare to serve in Christ’s Name.

FIA partners with Pastor Iver on a motorbike ministry where he and his team travel deep into the dense jungles of the Amazon Basin to connect with unreached villages. Dozens of villagers have been baptized, two new churches planted, and 50 men now train each month for two intensive study days to be equipped for outreach!

“I want to thank the Lord for putting into your hearts to support us, so that we can do his will together in the world. So many, many lives are being saved through your prayers and giving.” ~ Pastor Iver

Community Development

Pray for more souls to be won to the Kingdom through outreaches like Iver’s. On November 22, your Where Needed Most gifts could be allocated to assist Bolivia, help open the hearts of Rama Cay villagers through community development projects in Nicaragua, or assist mechanical work benefitting missionaries working among the Wewak people of Papua New Guinea.
