1/15 Update




The Ingham Update - CO Mobilization
January 15, 2013



  Life - on - Life
   With the Ingham Family

Thanks for being a part of this journey with us. We really can't imagine doing life without the joy of your partnership. (Philippians 1:3-5)



2013 is getting off to a fast & exciting start. Our mobilization track here (Vision Pathways Augusta) is entering into its 2nd half and we are very excited about what God can and will do in the lives of our grads. Some things we are doing with them:
  • We are starting (this year) to place an emphasis on integrating their faith and work. We have so many mentors in the church who are helping us do that. Also, we are working through a book in our discipleship groups entitled, "Every Good Endeavor" by Tim Keller. It is a great resource - check it out.
  • We are also assimilating them deeper into the life of the church by having them join community groups with other young adults and an older couple in the church.
  • One of our grads, Dave Jackson, is going to get to share (Feb 17th) about God's work in his life and his experience in Vision Pathways with the whole church. This will be great for everyone to have a deeper glimpse into Vision Pathways.
  • Our VP staff team came up with some prayer requests (specific to VP) that we want to trust God to answer over the course of this Spring (see below). We are asking the grads to pray these with us because we know that God listens and acts on behalf of his children when they pray.
  • Lastly, we have started a blog to document and update all that is going on in the Vision Pathways world on a day to day basis. There are consistent updates on things that have happened as well as personal blog posts by the grads themselves. To see or follow that blog, click here.
Dave Jackson is a recent graduate of Georgia Southern University. I (Mike) first met him at a roadside clean-up that we were doing and we struck up a friendship. He came to our weekly evangelistic meetings and eventually surrendered his life to Christ. Now as a graduate, he lives downtown as a part of the Vision Pathways community and works as an admin at Paine College. God is already using him in exciting ways there to be a witness for Christ!
Answered Prayers
  1. A new friend of mine just told me that he and his wife want to be a part of our work through financially supporting us and praying for us. God has been so kind to affirm what Corrie and I are doing through the loving faithfulness of his people who believe in this vision of "mobilizing laborers to the lost world."
Prayer Requests
  1. Join us in praying through our trust God list for the spring!
  2. Continue to pray as we travel during February and March for site visits to future mobilization tracks and for other Campus Outreach responsibilities. Traveling often has a way of throwing our routine off. We want to walk deeply with God as we are going about the business he's called us to.
  3. Corrie and I are still raising support to continue on in his calling for us to advance the kingdom in a very strategic way. We need at least $200 a month in personal support. If you know of anyone who would be interested in hearing about our work, let us know as we would like to give them the opportunity to be a part of this huge, God-sized mission!
