Please be praying as Ames leadership has been praying and considering some major ministry initiatives for quite some time now. One is a ministry called, “Operation: Send Me” which comes out of Isaiah 6:8 where the prophet Isaiah responds to God’s question, “Whom shall I send?” by saying, “Here I am, Lord. Send me.” This ministry, formerly known as “Missions in the City”, would be designed to host groups for missions trips to Saginaw, MI!
Another major ministry initiative in consideration is a new full-length Christian movie project, called “Greater”. Jesse Karls has written the now copyrighted script, and God has already provided a $10K grant through our district of UMC’s. The church has approved the purchase of a high end video camera and conversations are going forth with plenty of prayer and planning. Back in 2009, Ames released its first full-length movie in a few local theaters and have since given away nearly 800 copies of the ministry DVD to non-profit organizations! It is estimated that more than 20,000 people have seen the first movie.
Thank you so much for your continued support of the many ministries of Ames. God continues to use your generous support and partnership in great ways for His glory and the furthering of His kingdom! Your participation means way more than you probably realize. If you or someone you know really has a heart for ministries like “Greater” or “Operation: Send Me”, please inform Jesse Karls.
