Sunday Highlight: January 23

Today we’re going to pray for two of our missionaries serving in London, England. These days London is a huge city filled with people who have come from just about every country in the world. The city is a major missions challenge.

Our missionaries, Thomas and Elizabeth West, have gone there with their two kids to reach people for Christ. Thomas is pastor of Redeemer Queens Park Church. He is leading church members to establish friendships and do service projects that will lead to sharing the gospel. The idea is to provide spaces where people can ask questions about Jesus and learn who He really is.

Thomas prepared for his difficult ministry by studying at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, North Carolina, a school our church supports through the Cooperative Program. Southeastern is one of the nation’s largest and best seminaries, helping equip hundreds of pastors and missionaries each year. 

Let’s thank God for the ministry of Southeastern Seminary and its graduate, Thomas. Let’s pray that he and Elizabeth will lead many people in London to faith in Christ.
