Chan Wey Dik was recently diagnosed with cancer. Please lift her and her precious family up in prayer during this difficult time. 

Please persist in prayer for Dan Lampinen as he continues to battle significant health issues. 

Victoria is one of three new missionary units we have begun supporting in 2020. She first knew she was called to missions at age 6 after an encounter with the Lord. Since that moment, the Spirit has led her down a winding path to get her ready to serve orphans with Back2Back Ministries. Victoria joined the FG Student Ministry staff in 2017 and focused on loving and building relationships with students and their families. Two of those families fostered her dream for the mission field and introduced her to Back2Back Ministries. After a scouting trip to Cancun, Mexico, Victoria knew Cancun was home.

Back2Back Cancun focuses on Strong Families. There are currently two community centers that Back2Back operates in Cancun, each with unique functions for the specific communities they reside in. The goal of these community centers is to build stronger families that are dependent on Jesus, interdependent on community, and independent through sustainability. 

Way to Pray: Please pray for a smooth transition into full-time ministry in Cancun for Victoria, as well as a smooth transition for her dog, Willow. Also, please pray for a strong staff bond between Victoria and her new teammates and new opportunities for ministry in Cancun. 

We are offering several different short term trips this year! These trips include opportunities to serve children in orphan care, evangelize, serve refugees, and more. You can check out all of our trips on the website! Trip applications will be closing soon. 

Also, if you are a nurse and are looking to serve internationally, our missionary Joy Anglea needs nurses for an upcoming medical mission trip to Cambodia. For more information, check out her recent newsletter.

• Pray for new missionaries, Joel & Lauren Fletcher, as they prepare to leave for the mission field in February!
• Please pray for Joy Anglea and her parents as they are adjusting to a new normal! Joy's mom will be entering into long-term care and her dad will be adjusting to living on his own. Pray for Joy, too, as she figures out how best to serve her parents. 
• The Foth girls (Annabelle, Elianna, and Lillian) begin their first week of school since moving to Sydney, Australia. Pray that they would make good friends quickly and that they will show the light of Jesus to those around them. 
• Jasmine Kitchen, the social enterprising arm of Jasmine Road, opens in February. Pray that it will become a light to our city and offer hope to vulnerable women who hear the story of its purpose. 

Jasmine Road is a two-year-residential program for adult women survivors of human trafficking, prostitution, and addiction. Fellowship Greenville is proud to partner with them in the transformative work that they are doing in our community and in these women's lives. 

Jasmine Road believes community is healing and that volunteers can play a vital role in creating this environment. Volunteers serve alongside their program staff to love and support the residents on their unique journey of healing, and to further the growth, development, and operations of the Jasmine Road social enterprise initiatives. If you are interested in serving with this incredible organization, check out their website and complete their volunteer application.
