Faith Church

“I will make you a great nation and I will bless you...
And you will be a blessing. ”

(Genesis 12:2)

For 29 years it has been the profound privilege of Faith United Methodist Church to have supported missionaries here and abroad. In that time, beginning with the leadership of Jean and George Orcutt and the faithfulness of, now, generations of committed believers, numerous missionaries have gone forth under the "faith promises" of this church. It is impossible to estimate the number of lives that have been changed, the individuals who have been healed, the hungry fed, the destitute sheltered and clothed throughout these years. It is our hope that through our prayers and financial support Faith Church would be found faithful – an authentic church, sharing in some small way the work of those in the field of the Lord..

Blessed to be a Blessing

"I will make you a great nation and I will bless you...
And you will be a blessing." (Genesis12:2)

 

Missions Jubilation: February 5 – February 19, 2012

 

It is our great honor this year to welcome back to Faith Church Dr. Brent Burdick who has returned to the United States in great joy, having accomplished all the major goals of his mission in the Philippines, concluded by the successful transfer of leadership of each department of the ministry to local Filipino believers. Brent's mentoring of leadership was integral to a profound outreach that included not only his direct pastoring of a 1,300 member Faith Fellowship Church, but the presidency of Faith Bible College, while also serving as Philippines Field Director for OMS International. Truly a hands‐on teacher and worker in the fields of the Lord, Brent along with his congregation came to the aid of slum families through the New Beginnings Ministry which he directed.

 

Now, Doctor of Ministry, Dr. Burdick has returned to the United States and offers churches and organizations the benefits of his vast experience and expertise. Brent has kindly offered to lead a series of presentations and discussions Wednesday through Friday of the second week of our missions celebration. See the schedule below and plan on attending Brent's presentations on prayer, marriage and family, and our outreach to the community and the world. We believe Brent's life and ministry embody this year's theme "Blessed to be a Blessing," and it is up to us to receive the blessing so we can pass it on.
