God is doing something new—and it’s happening fast.

“Remember not the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth—do you not perceive it?” — Isaiah 43:18–19

Right now, God is clearly doing a new thing—in me, in Heartland International Ministries, and in the global connections He is orchestrating.

This past week has been filled with holy moments that feel nothing short of divine appointments. On Tuesday evening, I met a Nazarene Superintendent from Rwanda who was visiting the U.S. with another nonprofit partner. He shared breathtaking stories of healing and restoration through a specialized healthcare campus built in response to the 1994 genocide that took 800,000 lives. What man intended for evil, God is redeeming. He is doing a new thing in Rwanda.

Just days later, I was introduced—virtually—to Pastor Fred from Entebbe, Uganda, a region situated on the banks of Lake Victoria, often overlooked but deeply in need. Pastor Fred is confronting the harsh realities of unsafe abortions, child trafficking, and exploitation. He is building a center where vulnerable women are supported through childbirth, receive care, and children are placed in loving, vetted foster homes rather than being sold into sexual exploitation. It is heartbreaking, but also deeply hopeful. God is doing a new thing in Entebbe.

Then came Pastor Stephen, a senior leader with AWANA Global. This extraordinary organization is educating over 10 million children in 90 countries, equipping them not just with an education but with the stories of Jesus that will shape their faith for a lifetime. He invited me to speak at a leaders’ conference in Africa this October—a gathering of over 500 AWANA leaders. That connection was nothing short of a divine assignment. God is doing a new thing with HIM—equipping leaders to multiply the Gospel across Africa.

All of this—in just two weeks.

These aren’t random encounters. They are holy alignments. Strategic relationships. Kingdom connections. And God is calling HIM to perceive it… and respond.

Will you join us?

Your prayers, your support, and your partnership can help multiply these stories of redemption. Together, we can be part of what God is doing—a new thing that is springing forth with power, beauty, and eternal impact.

 

To God Be the Glory.
