As Coeur d’Alene Reformed Church completes denominational support this month, Pastor David Graves writes, “We give thanks to God for His faithfulness over the last four years. The congregation continues to grow, and it is our hope that within the next year CDA Reformed will be ready to petition for particularization. When I arrived, CDA Reformed largely consisted of one extended family that has since moved on. Yet, in the Lord’s faithfulness, He has continued to add to our numbers. I am currently leading the fifth membership class in four years. Please pray that the Lord would add these families to the congregation as faithful members. Also pray for the four men in officer training that they would be diligent in seeking wisdom from God and

Pastor Carl Miller shares, “God continues to pour out His grace abundantly in His work in New Braunfels!” New Braunfels OPC continues to meet for in-person worship and Christian education on the Lord’s Day. The congregation is healthy and growing. They are excited to have two new families who have finished membership classes and will be welcomed into membership in the coming weeks.

The Lord has been greatly blessing the work in West Plains. Pastor Paul Mourreale reports that Covenant Reformed Church has had newcomers on an almost weekly basis, most of which stay. A number are driving over an hour in order to come. They finished an eight-week new members Sunday School and already need to hold another new members class!

Pastor Mourreale also notes that the congregation has genuinely enjoyed times of fellowship and getting to know one another. He says, “You can pray for us as we seek for opportunities to reach out to our community. Like everyone we are struggling with a lack of

Evangelist Chris Cashen writes, “As Jesus speaks of separating sheep from goats upon His return, He references works done by the faithful. We may be tempted to think of these works (Matthew 25:35-36) as blessings for the recipient. Yet, as the work in Clarkston continues, we are learning that it is the worker who is blessed. Beginning in April, we have had the great privilege of ministering to a young asylum-seeking Christian from Africa. Imprisoned in his home country, he was beaten for trusting only in Christ. Fleeing Africa, leaving everyone and everything behind, he sought refuge in the US. At the border, he was immediately placed in ICE detention, where he has remained since December 2018. Despite his imprisonment - despite his

As of July 31, Providence Presbyterian Church was organized as a particular congregation of the OPC. Praise be to God! Roughly 115 were in attendance at the service of particularization. Two elders were installed and Kevin Medcalf was installed as pastor. Pastor Medcalf shares his gratitude to the Lord, not only for these good things, but also for new visitors and an upcoming infant baptism on August 30.
