NEWS FROM THE NETWORK

A Win for the Network in Chappell, NE.

I have a student who started playing in our worship band after our “beer garden worship set.” Two years ago, he would tell people he was an atheist. This past week, he told me that he was praying before youth group and all the tension he had been feeling from the school day just left his body and he felt wam and at peace. It was a very cool moment for him. He has come a long way and is becoming one of my Emerging Leaders. – Kevin Jacobs, pastor of Chappell Assembly of God.

 

 

 

 

Speed The Light Award

This year, the National Office recognized our students for giving $84,386 towards Speed The Light in 2022! This is the most Nebraka has given in 10 years, and because of this, we had the opportunity to get vehicles for two of our very own Nebraska missionary families. God is doing some amazing things through our students. I just want to say thank you so much to all our Pastors and leaders that are challenging and encouraging the next generation to give and be a part of missions! -Gerardo Macias, Church Ministries Director
