Christmas Giving Project
Christmas Giving Project
This Christmas season, we invite you to Pursue Generosity through two Christmas Giving Projects, whether as an individual, couple, family, or Life Group.
Option 1 – Colombia Church Planting Vision Trip
4 FCCers will be going on an exploratory church planting vision trip to Colombia who need financial support as they spread the hope of the Gospel to those in Colombia who don't have churches. This trip is led by our Colombian friend Camila, who works with Longview Ranch, is already involved in planting churches, and has attended FCC a number of times when she's here in Greeneville. Our own Student Director, Travis Chapman, FCC Resident Tessa Gourley, and Life Group Leaders Matthew and Sheila Nasekos will be part of this exploratory trip, and they could use some financial support to cover the cost of the trip.
Matthew was part of the initial trip last year and shared this, "Ten months ago we visited a community that told us, "You are the first people to visit us, stay with us, eat our food, tell us this good news, and help us. We are a neglected people. But you came to us and you told us God has come to us in Jesus. We understand that God came because you came. But who is going to teach us, shepherd us, and send us to others?" Since that day, we have been praying, and God has raised up church planters for this community. In less than two weeks, we are returning to encourage the church planters, train leaders, encourage the community, and spread the vision of planting churches where there are none."
You can find out more in this previous H7 Story, "Bringing the Hope of the Gospel to Colombia", or talk to Travis or Matthew Nasekos, Executive Director at Longview.
