Your prayers are a gift as we begin our Congo Missions Trip this coming Friday, August 12

Dear sisters and brothers in Christ,

God's peace to each one of you!  Please pray for Scott Butler, Missionary Fred Reinhardt and myself as we serve in the Republic of the Congo (Brazzaville) from this Friday, August 12 to Wednesday, August 24. We will have the honor of encouraging and equipping pastors and church leaders at various churches withing the Evangelical Lutheran Church of the Congo.  We will serve in two primary areas, the cities of Brazzaville and Pointe Noire.  Church President Joseph Mavoungou will serve as our host again this year, and he is a faith-filled follower of Jesus Christ.   This is our church's fourth time in visiting Congo Brazzaville.  Our partnership in ministry began in 2011 and has been filled with joy and thanksgiving.  We've been privileged to witness pastors being ordained for holy ministry in 2012 and 2015 and had the humble joy of praying with, worshiping with and learning from our dear sisters and brothers there.  Your prayers are a gift.  We will do our best to update the blog as often as possible.

Together in the Great Commission of Jesus,
Matthew Beish
