(HQ) Introducing the House Church Support Team

By Pastor Ron Ward
 
In the spirit of Jesus' commandment to "Love one another as I have loved you," we are excited to announce the formation of the House Church Support Team. This initiative arose during the recent North American Staff Conference, where we noticed a lack of representation from many smaller house churches, particularly those consisting of just one or two families. These dedicated house churches serve God wholeheartedly while also managing their own livelihoods. They encounter unique challenges that may not be fully understood by larger chapters, yet they also possess distinct strengths from which we can all draw inspiration.

Motivated by a calling to support and uplift these house churches, a group of committed volunteers has stepped forward to lead this effort. The team includes David Yun (Team Leader, Cornerstone), Luke Hong (Canadian Leader, Montreal), Jim Rarick (NA Board President Emeritus, Chicago), and Dr. Sarah Teresa Ahn (D. Min, House Church Specialist, Chicago). Last week, I had the privilege of meeting with them to discuss the mission at hand. They are deeply aware of the significance of house churches in God's eyes and are committed to nurturing them.

Guided by the spiritual leadership of the NA Coordinator, this team will collaborate with regional coordinators and NA Elders to engage with house churches across North America. Their mission is to witness and celebrate the incredible work God is doing through each house church, while offering prayers and support. We trust that God will reveal ways for us to uplift one another and advance His kingdom together.

We invite you to join us in prayer for the house churches in North America. If you are interested in participating in this work, please contact Dr. Augustine Sohn, NA Coordinator (ajmsohn@gmail.com). May the Lord empower and use each one for His glory.
