Robbery Leads to Ministry Opportunity

April 7, 2008

More than 30 police officers attended a worship service held by Brad Wood, Alliance missionary to the Dominican Republic, during Easter week. Brad offered to hold the special service and pray for the policemen as a way of thanking them for their help after he was robbed at knifepoint while jogging in a local park. Since the incident, he has had multiple contacts with those at the police station. After the service, several attendees asked Brad to return and share again.

Pray.

The Alliance believes wholeheartedly in the power and necessity of prayer. We cannot “Live the Call Together” unless prayer is central to all we do—as a denomination, as churches, and as individuals.

Give.

You can help build Christ’s Church around the world by donating online to the Great Commission Fund. This fund finances our missionaries, allowing them to focus on ministry rather than raising their own support.

Serve.

Is God calling you to full-time service? Do you want to experience missions firsthand by participating in a short-term missions trip? We want to help you connect your passion with God’s purpose.
