“Your voice in your community”
Superintendent Toby Schneckloth shares how you and your church can be a positive and powerful voice in your community during challenging times.
Vision Fellowship Weekend
A ground breaking special event happened in Ewing, O’Neill and the surrounding communities. Three of our Network churches came together last weekend to have conversations on how they could work together for outreach and how to help each other serve their communities.
Ewing Full Gospel Church, O’Neill Word of Life and O’Neill Assembly of God came together on Saturday and did equipping exercises, DISC personality evaluations, outreach discussions and discovering the realization that they need each other in a variety of ways to sustain church and personal health.
Sunday they did a joint worship service at Word of Life. Each pastor preached a ten minute message and afterwards they had a potluck meal and more discussion on outreach.
“We had lots of fun, fellowship and great conversations about working together.” Jim Lautzenhiser
“Even though we are different, we need each other and we can partner to impact our region.” Mark Hoffman
“I took away the value of seeing that we are part of a bigger plan and watching churches come together to worship and dream about partnering together to reach our communities.” Mike Durre

He still opens blind eyes today – Mike Durre
We had a lady in our church who had lost complete eyesight in her left eye and her right eye was blurred because of contracting Covid in January. She had an eye appointment so the night before I prayed with her for complete healing. Not only did we pray and agree for complete healing, but that the Lord would bring the healing before she walked through the doors of the doctor’s office.
This is what she testified to me:
“OK!!! I just left the eye doctor and the macular hole on the pictures from a week ago was just a spot now. The retina was smooth. The purple blob was minimal. The doctor said there isn’t anything wrong with me now! The healing happened sometime this morning! I can resume normal work and I am so excited!”
GO GOD GO! Thank you for sharing this testimony Pastor Mike!
