March missionaries
of the month
Open Air Ministries has been operated by Joe & Wendy for the past 38 years. Many years were spent in the Philadelphia urban area. Currently based in Raleigh, NC, Joe ministers at bus stations, sporting events, beaches, and college campuses.
Joe trains missionary candidates, youth groups, and other men in the greater Christian community in street evangelism, taking teams to many local and national events.
Joe and his team have recently returned from large gospel outreach events in some of the most challenging and dark places, such as the Super Bowl, PGA tournament, and Mardi Gras. Thank you for your continued prayers in the aftermath of these events!
Joe says “One of our primary ministry spots in the winter is the Moore Square Bus Station in Raleigh. I realized a few weeks back that when the sun is out the people begin to filter out of the cold terminal to warm up, which has given birth to what we call The Sunshine Church. It is amazing to see the Lord bring the crowds into the sun, whereby they stand around and hear God’s word clearly preached by our team. Through the weeks hundreds of gospel tracts have been handed out. Also, about six to eight bibles are taken by the folks each day. Pray for souls to be saved. Thanks for your prayers and support.”

Series by Rev Ken Miller
Is Christianity Finished In America?
A look at Recent Trends and Challenges
Presenter: Rev. Dr. Kenneth H. Miller, Ph.D.
Many publications, both religious and secular, have published research indicating that Christianity is dwindling in terms of both participation and influence. Most of these reports indicate that the decline is increasing at a rapid pace. What are the numbers telling us? What’s behind the seemingly sudden decline? What are we witnessing as we see it happening? Can it be a good thing? What might it mean for both church and culture? This three-week series will explore these and other questions about what is being interpreted as the end of the Christian Era.
March 12: The Numbers and Their Implications for American Christians.
March 19: Who Is Failing? Or is it Failure at All?
March 26: The Way Forward for the Church
Time for discussion will be included in each of the sessions. All sessions will begin at 7:00 p.m. The location is St. Paul’s Evangelical Congregational Church, 2120 Main St., Lititz (Rothsville).
Missionary Digest
Check your mail folder for the 2023 Missionary Digest. Extra copies are available at all entry kiosks.
