Week Two!

Hello Friends and Family,

I hope you are all doing well! It’s officially been two weeks of training camp! God is moving, and I’m excited to update you all on what is happening.

This past week, we had more sessions and additional squad and team time. We learned how to hear God’s voice and practiced evangelism at the local Kroger grocery store in Gainesville, Georgia. Most of us walked in pairs around the store and approached people, while some had the creative idea to buy flowers and hand them out as a way to start conversations. I personally encountered three people: a mother with her two kids, whom we prayed over; a man who was deeply involved with his church, for whom we prayed for discernment and rest as he was trying to balance his church involvement; and a man who had moved from Venezuela. Since he didn’t speak English well, we used a translation app to communicate and prayed for his health and prosperity. Evangelizing was a bit nerve-wracking since approaching strangers can be intimidating, but it was a humbling experience. It was especially inspiring to hear everyone’s testimonies about their experiences. I’m excited to see what it will be like overseas and how it will compare to our experiences here in the USA.

To keep things organized, some of our squad teammates were assigned roles such as hospitality, worship, and media. I’m excited to share that I have been assigned the role of treasurer for my team, along with three others who are treasurers for the other three teams within our squad. This means I will be managing our budget for necessities like food, supplies, and transportation, ensuring that it is properly distributed and tracked. I feel so blessed and honored to be entrusted with handling our team’s finances. Please pray for good stewardship in this role.

I also have some upcoming dates to share with you. First, we are scheduled to leave for a domestic ministry in Mississippi on Monday, September 23rd, and will be there for a week. After we return to Georgia for another week to have a debrief, we will then leave for Malaysia, scheduled for Monday, October 7th!

I’m so excited to continue sharing and updating you on what God will do throughout this journey. Thank you for all your continued prayers. Please pray for good health, as there is a bug going around the campus, and for good stewardship as we prepare to leave!

Also, please meet my team within the squad, Team Radiant (see the first picture above)!

Blessings to you all,

Mollie Stutzman
