Dr. Reeder on our Call to Speak! 
Take a few minutes to view Dr. Reeder’s amusing and informative video update on the Half-Million Mobilization's Call to Speak. We have been learning what the Spirit is saying to our church in recent months. Next, we will apply what we are learning in our vision and strategy work for the coming 3-5 years.

In the months and years ahead, our task is to work together with unified hearts to fulfill our Nazarene mission to make Christlike disciples in the nations!

Please share this video with others in your church or ministry area.

Church Planting
We completed the first Church Planting Training in Central California in many years. DS Songer is dreaming of planting churches, and leaders are excited about it!
Interest and excitement for more learning and planting was expressed after the training. With a supportive DS and the work of new Church Planting Coordinator Kevin Hardy, great days are ahead!
Note: This year, because of generous Nazarenes, we have 50 (rather than the normal 30) Hope Grants to distribute to districts to assist in planting churches. Get your applications in ASAP so we can get funds to you. Please contact your district superintendent for more information or email Mark Bane at mbane@nazarene.org.
Please look at the end of this Hub to find upcoming training events and registration opportunities to enhance your evangelistic and church planting practice.

Faces of Grace
By Rev. Monte Cyr, NDI Global Council Member and Discipleship Ministries Coordinator, Mesoamerica Region

My Journey - Angel Sigui
Angel sometimes jokes about how a short-term team was praying for help and God sent him, an “angel,” as the answer. Learn more about how God called a young man from Guatemala to use his gifts in languages and communication as a Nazarene missionary now serving in Ecuador. This video is a recent addition to the My Calling series, each of which focuses for 2-3 minutes on the ways God helped someone say “Here I am, send me!”
