Read below for recent highlights in the Send Detroit Network and what we are anticipating God to do next!
16 Planting Couples Assessed!
At the November Detroit assessment we were able to host church planters and spouses that represent the potential of 16 new churches across North America. We are grateful for the team of assessors and volunteers who made this event happen and even more excited about what God will do through these planters and wives as they are sent out into His harvest! Three couples are focused in the Send Detroit Area, two others also in Michigan while other areas represented were throughout the Midwest and even some from Florida.
Our November 11-12, 2019 assessment required three teams of assessors working together to assist church planting candidates in God's calling.
Ladies Nights Out & Guys in a Gondola
We were able to host a few special planter care events in December that assist us in growing the relationships in our Send Detroit family. Ladies got together on two occasions for cookie decorating lessons and guys had a night out hanging above the ice in the gondola at Little Caesars Arena watching the Detroit Red Wings together.
Commonwealth Grand Opening Feb 2
After acquiring a new facility that was the Old St. Robert Bellarmine Catholic Church in Redford, Pastor Torion Bridges and the Commonwealth of Faith have been busy preparing their new space for public services. This Sunday, February 2 is their grand opening service at 10:31am. Pray that the Lord would continue to move in the midst of this church and the community of Redford to bring salvation.
Rhiza Church is coming March 1
Tito and Mollie Diaz are excited about the upcoming launch of Rhiza Church in Ann Arbor, MI. They have been building a team, holding preview services and are preparing for a public launch of March 1 at Tappan Middle School. Please pray for God to be glorified through Tito, Mollie and Rhiza Church.
Send Network Gathering in St. Louis April 27-29, 2020
We're heading to St. Louis with church planting pastors, wives, and team-members, sending church pastors, and potential church planters from across the Midwest. The aim of this gathering is to inspire every church to see themselves as a multiplying church in the making and to equip every church to discover their next step in the multiplication journey. If you'd be interested in going with us via charter bus from Detroit please let us know!
