As we learned from our Lebanon FOCUS, missions isn't just about what happens "over there"—it’s about letting the Holy Spirit change us right here.
In Acts 1:8 and Matthew 24:14, God makes it clear: the local church plays a vital role in reaching every unreached people group, and He has chosen to work through us.
Get to know our missions partners and join us in praying for them daily. You can also join us as we pray as a church for our partners on the first Wednesday of each month during our weekly prayer meeting (7:00 p.m. at Grace Point).
Valerie Althouse | International Students Inc., New York City
Working with international students
Pray for the students they are discipling for Christ as they share Christ among Hindus, Muslims, and Buddhists.
Heather Brown | TeachBeyond, Pittsburgh
Working with Christian educators who get sent around the world
Pray for Heather and other TeachBeyond leaders in their work to bring the gospel to unreached places by equipping and training Christian educators who are sent to these locations to teach children.
Kevin Jean King | International Project, New York City
Working with visiting international students and scholars
Pray for deepening relationships with the graduate students and visiting scholars that join their English conversation groups, that they will become new believers. The hope is for these believers to bring the gospel back to their countries through simple house churches.
Nate & Jendi Korpi | Converge, Panama City
Working with global expats to share the gospel in an international city
Pray for the work that God is doing through LifeBridge International Church to reach the expatriate community living in Panama.
Unnamed family | Pioneers, Central Asia
Working with Muslim students
Pray for connections and deepening relationships with their students and their families through teaching, and for opportunities to share real words of truth with people in this location, where less than 1% are believers.
Unnamed family | Pioneers, Middle East
Working with Muslims
Pray for lasting relationships as they settle into their new location, and for progress with church-planting efforts.
[New focus in 2026] Horizons International, Lebanon
Supporting a Kurdish church that ministers to many Syrian war refugees
Pray that this church will be a light in the middle of the current crisis in Lebanon, with many families having been displaced. Pray for new believers: among Lebanon’s 71,000 Kurds, fewer than one in a thousand is an evangelical believer.
[New in 2026] Unnamed organization, Southeast Asia
Working with an Indonesian church-planting ministry to reach the Banjar people
Pray for the team as they train and send workers, and for their church-planting efforts. There are more than four million Banjar. Fewer than one in a thousand follows Jesus, and there is not yet a single church that worships in the Banjar language.
[New in 2026] Mike & Emily Crisman | Converge, Spain/Morocco
Working with Muslims living in Spain and Morocco
Pray for open doors for conversations about Christ as the Crismans settle into their new home in southern Spain with their three young daughters and work to support and grow church planters in Morocco, where fewer than two in one thousand are followers of Christ and one in one thousand are evangelical.
[New in 2026] F & N | Pioneers, Southeast Asia
Working with diaspora Muslims
Pray for F and N as they train local Christian professionals to share their faith with coworkers in the most populated city in the world, training them to go throughout the country in reaching over 200 unreached people groups. Please also pray for opportunities for possible short-term missions trips in the future.
