Taking the Gospel to Jamaica and the Navajo Nation
Jeff Goss
Jamaica Evangelism Outreach
For many years, Fellowship of Christian Farmers International (FCFI) has traveled across numerous states and countries, providing disaster relief and helping farmers during times of crisis. Along the way, FCFI has also shared the Gospel with tens of thousands of people through its Wordless Bracelet ministry at farm shows, fairs, and FFA conventions throughout the United States and around the world. Many people will be in heaven one day because of these outreach efforts and the faithful support of those who make this ministry possible.
We believe this mission will continue until Jesus returns. Now, we are expanding our evangelistic efforts even further to reach more people around the world for Christ. Jesus commanded His followers to go into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. God has placed it on my heart to combine evangelistic outreach with our disaster relief ministry. When I shared this vision with Dan Janzen, he fully supported it.
On November 14, when FCFI travels to Jamaica to assist with the construction of a student dormitory at a Bible school, Pastor John Potter, who pastors a church in Mitchell, South Dakota, and I will also conduct street evangelism and door-to-door ministry during the day. In the evenings, we will participate in church services and minister to local congregations.
You can help make this evangelistic outreach possible! Your financial support will help provide opportunities to share the Gospel and reach more people with the message of Jesus Christ in Jamaica. Every gift helps us extend this ministry and bring the hope of Christ to those who need to hear it.
Please pray that many souls will be saved and powerfully touched by the Holy Spirit. Pray also that God will open doors for us to carry out this ministry in many more countries before the last trumpet sounds and Jesus returns in the clouds.
As Jesus said in Matthew 24:14:
“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.”
The Navajo Nation Outreach
At the beginning of October, we ministered at the Northern Navajo Nation Fair in Shiprock, New Mexico. This annual event draws approximately 80,000 Navajo people and visitors for several days of activities, including a large parade, flea markets, a carnival, a rodeo, and traditional ceremonial dances. As in previous years, we operated our prayer booth inside the fairgrounds in partnership with Victory Life Church in Shiprock.
I was encouraged to see many young Navajo people making decisions for Christ. At the same time, it was heartbreaking to hear the many prayer requests and personal struggles shared by those who came to our booth. During my time on the reservation, I encouraged people to stand on the great and precious promises of God and to remember that He watches over His Word to perform it in the lives of those who believe Him.
One Navajo pastor told me that many people had lived with hardship for so long that they had simply become accustomed to it and accepted it as normal. He said that my message gave them “a second pair of eyes,” awakening them to the truth that Jesus died so we could walk in freedom and victory in every area of our lives.
Please pray for revival to spread across the Navajo Reservation. Also pray for those affected by the recent heavy rains and flooding throughout the reservation and the Four Corners region, particularly along the San Juan River, near many of the areas where we ministered. May God bring protection, provision, and hope to everyone impacted by these difficult circumstances.
Below are some highlights from the event!
