Thousand Oaks, California

March 31, 2021

We are pleased to welcome Caleb Smith, organizing pastor of Thousand Oaks Presbyterian Church, to denominational support. Caleb is married to Erika and they have two boys, Joel (4) and Oliver (almost 2), and a third baby due in September. Most recently Caleb had been pastoring at Calvary OPC in Glenside, PA, but in June of 2020 the Smiths moved to Thousand Oaks with the hopes that an exploratory work would develop into a church plant. For Erika this is a return to her hometown, and for Caleb this is an answer to many years of prayer. There is a tremendous need for a Reformed church in the Conejo Valley (the north-western part of Greater Los Angeles), and they are thankful for the opportunity to apply themselves toward the expansion of

Zeeland, Michigan

Pastor Michael Schout of Grace Fellowship OPC writes, “The past few months have been a whirlwind in a wonderful way! In the kind providence of God, we were able to purchase a facility early January 2021 and spent the next several weeks getting it ready for move-in. Our first public worship service was March 21. With a new building has come many new faces, which brings a lot of excitement and opportunity for our church family to show hospitality. We are hoping to particularize in the coming weeks, so that is also exciting for us (and for Harvest!). We had been praying for some additional elderly people to join the mission, and the Lord did not disappoint. He brought a widow from the east side of the state, who moved to live closer to her

Corona, California

March 31, 2021

Corona Presbyterian Church (CPC) is so thankful for the prayers of God’s people throughout the OPC. Pastor Andrew Canavan shares, “CPC welcomed seven new members this month and two more will be received in the coming weeks (including one new member who is homebound with MS and will be received virtually). We would be grateful for prayer that visitors might continue to show up and that our members and regular attenders might be propelled outward to their neighbors as the joy of the gospel overflows in their lives. One long-time member recently rented a plot in the community garden next to our Sunday meeting location specifically to share the gospel and invite fellow gardeners to church. A new member regularly makes time to share the gospel

West Plains, Missouri

March 31, 2021

With much gratitude, Pastor Paul Mourreale writes, “Your prayers are being answered! Covenant Reformed has been encouraged by steady growth and has been strengthened in every way. In the past month, our average attendance has been over 50 people. We have six families in our new members class and roughly 80% of our attendance for worship also attends Sunday School. In addition, we have multiple families who drive for over an hour to come to church. Opportunities abound for further church plants in the region—pray that these might bear fruit. The people of Covenant Reformed are excited to study the Word of God and to share it with the community around us. Pray that we might be effective stewards of God’s grace in Christ and that we might be
