KC Missions

The team will be enjoying a tourist day today before catching a flight home tomorrow.

The Guatemala team is heading up the mountains to work with kids and do home visits. Please keep us in your prayers as we minister to the people.

Our Guatemala team could use some prayer right now. We’ve got a case of heatstroke, a foot injury and the death of a family member back home. Please cover us in prayer.

Some of our medical personnel teamed up with local nurses, physicians and a team from Alabama. We were able to serve 200 people over the last two days. ❤️

Another medical clinic and VBS for our team in Guatemala today.

The team has safely arrived in Guatemala. Pray today as we work a medical clinic and work with the children.

2021 Virtual Fall Fundraiser! Welcome to the Pregnancy Resource Center of Saint John's Virtual Fall Fundraiser! We are so glad that you are joining us and we appreciate your support. Duri...

Continue to pray for Pastor Solon and our partner church in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. In addition to the challenges posed by COVID-19, the country has been rattled this year by the assassination of its president, the magnitude 7.2 earthquake in August (with another 4.1 earthquake striking off the coast earlier this week), and gang violence throughout Port-au-Prince (and specifically in Maïs Gaté where our partner church is located).

Kidnappings have also been a major problem, including the abduction of a group of 17 missionaries earlier in October. And now a fuel shortage is causing even more unrest and upheaval.

In a recent message, Pastor Solon requested prayer for the following:

- Pray to have peace in our country.
- Pray for our brothers in South of Haiti (where the earthquake struck).
- Pray for family.

The Pregnancy Resource Center of Saint John is hosting an ONLINE AUCTION from November 1 through November 8 on their page. Don't miss this great opportunity to do some Christmas shopping AND support this ministry.

The president of Haiti was assassinated in his residence early yesterday morning. Haiti has been a hotspot for rioting and gang warfare over the past three years, and just last month, the UN stated that the violence had escalated to “unprecedented levels”. In the wake of this assassination, the prime minister has declared a 15-day "State of Siege" (like martial law... more severe than a state of emergency, but not quite a state of war).

Kings Church has a church-to-church partnership with Eglise Wesleyenne de Maïs Gaté in Port-au-Prince, and we have assured Pastor Solon that we are praying for them during this time. Please pray for peace in the streets, for wisdom for the existing government, and for the Christians in Haiti (including our partner church) to reflect Jesus throughout this crisis.

Pray also for the missionaries in Haiti [including Mike and Laura Smith, missionaries we support at the Community Advancement Ministry Project (C.A.M.P.) in rural Cayes-Jacmel]. May they glorify Christ and lift Him up as a beacon of hope.

As you pray, read through Psalm 46 (see below) and proclaim it's truth over the Church in Haiti.

Psalm 46 (NIV)
1 God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
2 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
3 though its waters roar and foam
and the mountains quake with their surging.

4 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
the holy place where the Most High dwells.
5 God is within her, she will not fall;
God will help her at break of day.
6 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
he lifts his voice, the earth melts.

7 The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.

8 Come and see what the Lord has done,
the desolations he has brought on the earth.
9 He makes wars cease
to the ends of the earth.
He breaks the bow and shatters the spear;
he burns the shields with fire.
10 He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;
I will be exalted among the nations,
I will be exalted in the earth.”

11 The Lord Almighty is with us;
the God of Jacob is our fortress.

The annual "Steps for Hope" in support of the Pregnancy Resource Center of Saint John (PRC) will look a little different this year. Instead of gathering in person, we're going to do our best to support the PRC virtually! During the week of June 6-12, you're invited to go for a walk, a jog, a bike ride, a canoe trip—be creative!
