West Asia

Adam and Sophia have officially landed overseas. Their first few weeks have consisted of finding a new place to live, buying a car, applying for university, and jumping into ministry. They are praising the Lord for abundantly supplying all of their needs every step of the way! Despite being in an unfamiliar place, the Lord has given them joy in this new season and in calling West Asia their new home.

They have been regularly experiencing the spiritual lostness of the city through their senses, conversations, and observations. The city is full of calls to prayer, the smell of burning incense, striking gold idols, and miniature temples. One of their biggest blessings has been the local gathering of believers as well as their teammates. They are so thankful to be in this place, connected to a local fellowship that truly loves Jesus and in a field ripe for harvest. After settling in, Adam has already been able to start serving the local church by caring for her members and working on various projects.

  • Pray that Adam and Sophia would have perseverance, joy, fruitfulness, and that they would successfully obtain their visas.
  • Pray for unity and sweetness in their marriage and grace in parenting Joanna.
  • Pray that God would grow the local body, their love of His Word, and zeal for His Name to be proclaimed in this city and around the world.

Harvest Church // New Orleans, LA

Andrew Hanna was sent out of Immanuel Community Church in 2021 along with his wife, Mary Margaret, and other members to plant Harvest Church. One of their members (Jenna) has recently received the bad news that cancer has returned after a few years of remission. She has long-term desires to serve the Lord overseas and is currently pursuing a degree online at NOBTS.

The church has continued with their building renovation project, which has been a massive ordeal. They are thankful for all of their partner churches (including Immanuel!) who have sent help, volunteers, and finances to help get the project to the finish line. They are hopeful that the church will begin to gather in the new building sometime this semester. Andrew continues to strive to faithfully shepherd this growing local congregation in the midst of their building transitions.

  • Pray that the Lord would mercifully heal Jenna, draw near to her through this trial of cancer, and make His Name known through her sickness.
  • Pray that God would provide all that is needed for Harvest to have a stable place to worship and proclaim His greatness in the new building. 
  • Pray that Andrew would lead Harvest in humility, holiness, and with great wisdom. Pray that the Lord would bless his teaching ministry, build up the saints, and save the unbelievers in their midst. 
  • Pray that the Lord would give Andrew and Mary unity, singlemindedness, and that their love would abound for each other and the members of Harvest.
