Hi Everyone!
We are back from the Atlantic City Mission Trip! It was another blessed year serving alongside New City Fellowship Church! Our bible clubs were amazing…so many kids and adults! We also had many opportunities to serve in the community through cleaning up parks, setting up computers, helping in a food bank and fixing a ceiling in a church. See the above link to watch this year’s video! Thank you so much for praying for out time there and please continue to pray for Pastor Pete and all who continue to serve and work within the ministry.
Now another team of 9 are off to Albania this Thursday! We are finalizing everything and fly out at 5:30PM – landing at 11am on Friday (Albania time). We appreciate your prayers for the time we are there. All our friends in Albania are anxious to see us and spend the next 12 days serving and then for some of us, an additional week to prepare and celebrate the wedding of Nicole and Plator!
Thank you to all who are praying, all those who gave, and all those who continue to support the ministry of Step of Faith!!

During this week we are praying for the 400 children in Albania that are hearing about Jesus Christ, many for the first time! These children come from Muslim and atheist homes, but through God’s grace, they are experiencing the love of Jesus through all the volunteers serving them during Pandamania! 
Step of Faith has provided the funding for this amazing week because of our devoted supporters who give throughout the year. We are so thankful for the support and the prayers! It is humbling to know that while we are thousands of miles away, through financial giving, many of us are being used by God to bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ to these children.
Songs, skits, movies, crafts, games and sports are the ways in which these children are receiving His love. Please join us in prayer that all of their hearts will be transformed into Jesus followers and then they will go home to their families and share what they have learned and received! God is doing an amazing work in Albania and we are so thankful to be a part of it!
7 weeks from today, our team of 10 will be flying back to Albania to be a part of a 10 day evangelistic trip. We appreciate your prayers for our final weeks of preparation so that when we arrive we can be used by God to continue to bring the love and saving faith of Jesus Christ to those we serve!

Hello Everyone!
We are only months away from our two mission trips this summer… Atlantic City and Albania!
This will be our 11th team going back to serve along side (now) Pastor Pete and New City Fellowship in Atlantic City and our 2nd team going back to Albania to serve with Pastor Plator and his growing ministry in and around the area of Korce.
The AC Team will be serving from August 5-11 and the Albania Team will be serving from August 25-Sept 4. Both teams have been diligently preparing and raising funds for many months.
The AC Team is made up of 11 team members from 5 different churches. Each morning we will be engaged in discipleship teaching on cross-cultural ministry learning about how we can be more aware of the people around us, sharing the Word of God and being a bridge from the community to the church. During the day we will be involved with a variety of service projects that the team from AC prepares for us. This time will give us opportunity to share Jesus and help meet some tangible needs in the community. And three of the nights we will be sharing Jesus with the children of Carver Hall through our Bible Club.
The Albania Team is made up of 10 team members from 4 different churches, including our friends Ted & Katie Kenney from Plays on Word Ministry. While in Albania we will be sharing our Bible theme of “Creation” with over 200 children and also a group of youth during a one day discipleship workshop. We will travel to the different church plants that Pastor Plator currently has, including going far up the mountains to one of the remote villages (as we did last year). Our time will be blessed as we get to act out, sing and share the love of Jesus with this predominately Muslim / atheist country that has less than 2% Christians.
We are asking for your prayers for the remaining preparations, financial responsibilities and the travel to and from for our teams. We are excited to see how God is going to use all of us and truly appreciate your prayers for all of it!
