A healthy missions program includes not just GOERS but SENDERS as well.
Please learn about, pray for, and give to our missions teams.
Missionary of the Month
Ian and Jodi Beck
Ian and Jodi Beck serve as missionaries with Ethnos360 at its home office in Sanford Florida. Ethnos360 exists to evangelize unreached people groups, translate the Scriptures, and see indigenous churches established that glorify God. Jodi primarily home schools our children, but she also cleans some of the mission property. Ian does maintenance, occasionally fills in as the Facilities Manager, and transports missionaries to/from local airports.
Prayer Requests:
1. Pray for the health, energy, wisdom, for our family. Jodi homeschools our 5 kids. As you can imagine that would be difficult. Pray for wisdom for continued education for our kids if we should pursue other options for their education. We do have homeschool resources and a homeschool co-op that the kids enjoy going to once a week.
2. Pray for more co-workers. Ian will be advancing into the role as the facilities manager for the Ethnos360 home office. All of Ian’s maintenance co-workers are at the age of retirement.
3. Pray for finances. We praise God for help that has been given to wisely steward our finances. Pray for continued wisdom to steward our finances well and wisdom on how to engage with potential new donors so we can continue to effectively serve in Ethnos360’s vision to see a thriving church for every people group.

The Great Commission
Matthew 28:18-20
And Jesus said to them: "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of ALL NATIONS, baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age."
Expanding
One of our core values is to be about the work of expanding.
By our missional living, evangelizing locally and globally, we are joining God as He adds to His Church.
We are involved in both long and short-term missions around the globe. Teams are sent with the purpose of evangelism and supporting local churches in countries such as Nepal, Costa Rica, Ethiopia, and Mexico. Some are also called from JCC to live their lives in full-time cross-cultural ministry. Among those sent are missionaries living in Nepal, India,
China, Mexico, and Costa Rica.
We actively support individuals and families on the foreign mission field, as well as those from our congregation who participate in short-term missions opportunities. Our support includes prayer, funding, and helping with the physical needs involved in missions.
