Tyler and Natalie Detrick
Pastor Tyler Detrick writes, “First Street continues to bear witness to the gospel in downtown Dayton as we look forward to exciting opportunities in the year ahead. We have much to be thankful for: Visitors continue to come from downtown. Our Quran/Bible discussion continues to generate friendships and gospel-focused discussions with our Muslim neighbors. We were also recently encouraged to see God bear fruit in our work as a woman started visiting First Street with her family, found peace with Christ, and leaned into discipleship opportunities. Praise God for these developments! Please also pray for several upcoming opportunities and needs: Pray that God would use our ESL ministry in the upcoming months as a further means of reaching the lost in our community. Pray also for the Lord to guide us to a new downtown meeting location. Our current space has a steep staircase which has proved inaccessible to some, so we’re searching in earnest for a new place to worship!”
