Hope Takes to the Streets of Tucson — Winter 2020

We just finished a Star Wars theme play entitled “Story in The Stars.” Out of the four nights we presented this play, we saw more than 60 people pray to receive Jesus. There was a wonderful anointing on this effort by many in our congregation, and many at the altar were weeping as God’s conviction drew them to salvation.

Another blessing of our recent play is the rising up of the younger generation in our church. Through the play, Music Nights, Street Outreaches and many other ministries in the church, we are seeing this generation take the baton of faith and are running well with it.

One of the ways we could describe what is happening in our church recently is it seems as though “God is drawing near to us.” We are seeing an increase in visitors and conversions on a regular basis, and a great feeling of spiritual momentum. In a short period of time recently, we had four going away services for couples announced in our Bible Conference in June. There was a noticeable presence of God as they preached and when we laid hands in them to release them into their cities, these were true “Holy Moments.”

We are now entering the Holiday Season, and our highlight during this time is Pastor Warner’s Christmas Reading. It is usually a reading combined with acting and special music, and every year we get visitors for this event, as well as a fresh appreciation of what Jesus has done for us.

As time goes by, we are constantly reminded of the blessing we share as co-laborers with all of you in the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We are hearing reports of breakthroughs in other congregations throughout our Fellowship, and there is sense that we are on the verge of revival in our nation and abroad.

We are still in the process of preparing for our planned new Sanctuary and Conference Center, we ask for your prayers as we contend for this. We are still very thankful for the investment of the Prescott Church into Tucson 46 years ago, and like Paul said in Phil. 4:17, “we are the fruit that is abounding to your account.”
