I have been given an amazing, last minute opportunity to join Gerry Stoltzfoos and a team of church planters who are going state by state to strategize with potential planters from across the country! This is an unforeseen turn of events that has me bursting with excitement for what could happen. Our hope is that this trip will allow us to speak into the lives of these new church leaders in venues that could cause them to make the final leap into church planting! Of course, we want to learn some new things ourselves as well as we seek God on the road and in a critical consultation with a church planting guru who has been affectionately called the "Yoda" of church planting. We are leaving on Monday, August 25th for this two week stateside missions trip that will entail at least 4 church planting summits in 10 states!
To be successful, we will really need your prayers during this time for safety and true power from the Holy Spirit! I would also ask you to lift up the spouses and families of those going (including Cori and the kids) because they will be holding down the home front while I am away. This is the reason I am writing to you now. Would you please commit to covering our team in prayer as we cover over 6,000 miles in two weeks?!
The cost of the trip is substantial, but Cori and I are willing to cover the cost entirely by faith if nothing comes in because we believe in the strength of church planting. The total cost is around $3,000 for gas, lodging, food and expenses and so I want to invite you to be a part of what this trip produces if you have a desire to sow some financial seed with me.
If you have the desire to help financially,
Please make a donation to the Intersection Church and put "Church Planting Summit" in the memo. Donations are tax-deductible and can be given to me in person this week or mail it to
1980 Baltimore Pike, Gettysburg PA 17325.
Every dollar, prayer and happy thought is appreciated, so please consider partnering with me and this wild-eyed group of church planters through prayer and generosity and keep checking this blog for prayer updates during the course of this cross-country missions trip that is engineered for HUGE eternal impact!
Thank you!
Jeremiah and Cori Herbert
