Jason, Cindy, Josiah, Lael, Adah -

The Wolden's serve with Shiloh Military Ministries at Fort Cavazos, Texas.  They are dependent on your prayers and support to help sustain this disciple making ministry.  Their aim is to use the platform of their home to see our Active Duty and their families know the Lord, grow in the Lord, and help others repeat that process.  

The Wolden's are a part of a team of missionaries who seek to reach and disciple active duty military soldiers.  Jason's primarily role is men's discipleship.  He meets with soldiers and spouses throughout the week for Bible studies, counseling, mentoring, discipleship and accountability.  They are also involved with the Soldiers Hospitality House which is led by a Cadence Military ministry couple.  Jason and Cindy met and fell in love while attending EBF!! 

This is from Young Life staff and EBF member Felicia VanLierop...."This picture was taken at our semi-annual all-area High School club.  Some of the leaders are upfront leading in fun Christmas songs, and other leaders are in the crowd singing with kids.  Young Life is all about building trusting relationships with kids, and earning the right to share the gospel.  All 87 of our leaders go out into a world of kids, first by loving them and meeting them where they are at and then pointing them to the trust of Jesus.  Club is our outreach event where we cater the things we do to the "farthest out kid" (which means kids with zero church experience), so we play music they know and play funny games to break down walls.  Then the highlight of our night is when we share a 15 minute message on the gospel.  Over 170 students came and heard the truth of Jesus!"

Raimonds, Marta, Amēlija, Naomija, and Matilda -

We are the Logins family living in Riga, the capital of Latvia. We are (Raimonds), and my beautiful and wise wife (Marta) and we have been married for eight years. God has blessed us with three beautiful princess - Amēlija (7), Naomija (4), and Matilda (1,5). We think of ourselves as a creative family. Marta loves everything about photography but mostly pictures of people. The way she looks at people through a camera lens is beautiful. You can see some of the pictures on our family blog at http://musulapa.lv. Raimonds loves creative things as well as he used to work as a web designer. Raimonds is passionate about sports such as volleyball, soccer, CrossFit, and boxing.

In 2013 God called us to full-time ministry. It was a challenging decision, but when you know that God is calling you, the smartest thing to do is to respond to His calling. We work along with Josiah Venture (www.josiahventure.com). The vision is to see a movement of God amongst the youth in Central and Eastern Europe that finds its home in the local church and transforms society. The main role for every missionary is to make disciples who make disciples. This is what we focus on. But there are different tools we try to provide for churches such as Fusion projects, summer camps, leadership training, and now Edge Sports. Our role before was to lead leadership training. We did that for three years. Now we are on a new journey, so, with God’s help, we are starting this new project called Edge Sports Latvija. The goal is to reach young men and women through sports. Marta’s role is huge in this ministry even as she spends most of her time with the girls and managing a TON of things at home. We are together in this, and the dream is that our girls will also become involved in this mission. Our present goal and prayer is that they will know Jesus personally at a young age.

Thank you for being with us in this calling. Thank you for loving Latvia.  

EBF has sent 3 missions teams to Latvia to lead English camps in the last 5 summers.

For the last 10 years EBF has partnered with the CRU Jesus Film Project to translate the Jesus Film into numerous different languages!!! The goal of Jesus Film Project is to see that every person on earth has a chance to hear the transforming story of Jesus in their heart language and given the opportunity to respond and grow in that relationship.

Jesus film Project works within the body of Christ, contributing to the fulfillment of the Great Commission in three key missional areas:  Translation, Saturation and Innovation.

TRANSLATION:  Language production is the heart and soul of Jesus Film Project®. It is our objective to complete a new language version of the classic JESUS for every language group larger than 50,000 speakers.  We also produce companion products like The Story of Jesus for Children and Magdalena.  With an added emphasis on follow-through evangelism, we also produce various films which create new opportunities to proclaim the saving message of Jesus Christ to specific audiences.

SATURATION:  Five million churches to reach five billion people!  Relying on God, Cru and over 1,500 partner denominations and ministries we hope to establish one church for every 1,000 people on earth by 2025.  Jesus Film and the Global Church Movements (GCM) division of Campus Crusade for Christ® have united around this goal.  We’ve created a package that includes JESUS film languages, needed equipment, training and supervision to enable a team to start 10 churches or church extensions in four years and provide continuous evangelism for these communities. Jesus Film Project provided 3,000 sets of equipment to partner teams in 2018.

INNOVATION:  The world's unreached have skyrocketing access to mobile phones; people all over the earth have instant access to media and are connected like never before in history. This reality presents an incredible opportunity for Jesus Film Project® to leverage its existing library of content through digital distribution over the Internet, accelerating evangelism, discipleship, and church-planting efforts around the globe. The Jesus Film® app is an award-winning, must-have tool in the global missions’ community.
