MISSIONS
We are called to make Jesus known locally and globally. In Southern Maryland, we partner with local ministries that make known the love of Jesus. Across our state and country, we support church-planters and campus ministers. Across the world, we minister to those outside our borders, through short-term trips, internships, and partnership with our missionaries.
Missionaries of the Month
Ryan Bratt
How you can be praying for him this month:
- Pray for new believers in our ministry. We currently have 7 students who have not been baptized who are very seriously exploring the Christian faith. Pray for Amanda Jakana and I as we disciple them and that they would continue to feel drawn to Jesus.
- Pray that we would get an intern placed with us next year.
- Pray for energy for the final 6 weeks of school. Amanda and I are running on fumes as the year comes to a close.
- Hanna and I are currently on a wait-list for an adoption placement. We'd love to be matched with an expectant mother soon - but pray for patience as we wait.
Cyril Chavis
How you can be praying for him this month:
- Pray for RUF Howard students to: be spiritually healthy, build 1-on-1 relationships, and develop consistent spiritual disciplines.
- Pray for Julien, the new intern, to transition well to the DC and Howard community.
- Pray for the Chavis family as they balance work and family responsibilities, especially with Janelle’s new job.
- Pray for Cyril and Janelle to have patience and wisdom in training up Aria, Elise, and Kyrie in the way they should go.
