HONDURAS UPDATE – December 29th

Hello Friends,

As you can see “Casa de la Luz” is moving along.  God is good!  As of today the interior doors are being prepped, cabinets are being built and all the details are coming together. Thank you to all who have supported this mission.

Our team was suppose to be there in Honduras ( Dec. 21-28th ) but due to civil unrest our trip has been postponed until June 17-24.

More to come…………..

Fathers Joy 2017!

What a year!  As 2017 comes to a close it’s not only important to look ahead but, it’s also important to stop and see where you’ve come from and rejoice in what the Father has accomplished.

We are reminded that this ministry’s title is the meaning of our firstborn’s name, Abigail. Our prayer has always been that we would bring joy to Him!  Our heart is still the same today as it was when He started this ministry in 2014.   We want to bring a smile to His face through music, missions, and mentoring.

In the area of music, we have helped start a Saturday service at Church For All Nations where Bridget and I lead worship every week.  FathersJoy has also been involved in the Pavilion at Gig Harbor once a month in leading the body of Christ into worship and intercession for this northwest region.  In October, we partnered with Missio Dei ( our friends church – Pastor Tony and Shanda) in Salt Lake City, Utah in leading a night of worship as well as conducting a teaching on worship with our hosts worship team and guests from Boise Bible College.  Our hope in 2018 is to travel a bit more and partner with friends to do more Pavilion Events in strategic places.

In the area of missions, we have partnered with Fathers Grace Ministries to help build Casa de la Luz in Rio Maria, Honduras.  In July, Mark went to Honduras to brake ground on this mission house and by December we are 85% done with the building project.  In June, Bridget and I will lead a team of 11 people to spread the Gospel of God’s love to the surrounding area as well as add some finishing touches to the mission house.  We also continue to partner with Cleon, our dear friend we met over 20 years ago, who is a missionary to Albania.   Cleon is connected with YWAM and is a vital part of that ministry in Albania.  We were also able to host Eitan, our dear friend at Tents of Mercy, who ministered at Church for All Nations at our Saturday and Sunday services.  Not only do we want to continue ministering in Honduras, Albania, and Israel in 2018 but our hope is to expand in our relationships in order to help people experience God’s presence all over the world!  With your help we have been able to sow over $5000.00 into missions this year! Thanks so much!

In the area of mentoring, we have been busy pouring into the worship team at Lev Adonai ( our congregation that meets on Saturday’s).  Also, we have been pouring into our 2 oldest kids.  Abigail is flourishing in her love and desire for God – she is growing in Him and will graduate in 2018 from GK High School.  Abigail has been helping lead worship in the youth and is being used to encourage young people to follow hard after God.  Samuel, is growing as a worshiper.  He is our main drummer but occasionally leads worship from the keyboard at Church For All Nations.  God has entrusted us with these guys and we only have them for a couple of more years so we are spending much time pouring into these guys and we are seeing God’s hand on them in a mighty way.  We have also had many opportunities to connect by phone with young men whom we have mentored in the past.  In fact, Andrew an awesome young worship leader / song writer came up for the weekend during December.  It was refreshing to see God’s hand on Andrew’s life.  We were able to lead worship together while he was here and we also found some time to show a southern boy what a real mountain ( Mount Rainier) looks like.  Our hope in 2018 is for God to send us more young men and women who desire to be psalmists for the Lord.

In closing,  we want to thank you for your friendship, your love, and your support.  There are many great things happening in the Kingdom of God and for you to give you prayer and support to this ministry is humbling.  We could not do this without you !

The Moses’ thank you and ask for your continued prayer and support in 2018.

An update from the Moses’

Hello All,
Bridget and I just got back from a God-ordained trip to Utah to minister with some life-long friends of ours.  It so impacted us and gave us a glimpse into some even greater things God has for Father’s Joy.  Many of you know Ryan and Jacque Howard.  The came from Arcadia, California and met us in Utah, where we partnered with Tony and Shanda Simoncini at their community of Mission Dei in South Jordan.  Gods’ presence was powerful in that place as we worshipped, taught some key principles to students from BBC and encouraged the worship team there.
We’ve gathered here with some other friends once-a-month at the Pavilion Gig Harbor to open the heavens over their city to see what God wants to do there.  Last month( October ) their mayoral candidate showed up to check it out.  We took time to pray with him and his wife and the Lord was ministering to them during worship.  He won the election in November by a landslide! Thank you Jesus!
In Rio Maria, Honduras – Casa de La Luz is being built!  Our mission house ( that we are partnering with David and Nohemy Lawson of Father’s Grace Ministries) is well on its way.  Bridget and I will be taking a team of 13 people  in December to help complete the missionary base house and begin ministry there.
 
A few things we want to leave you with –
– If you have a or know of a place / time / gathering Father’s Joy can have an opportunity to “open a portal” to Heaven through worship and ministry let us know!
–  Please pray for us.  Pray for our kids, as some territories God places you in can be more challenging for kids than others! Abigail and Samuel both have life decisions to make ( college career, ect ). and we only want God’s purposes and desires for their lives.  Pray for them as they seek the Lord!
– Check out our new FACEBOOK page where you can join us in times of worship & ministry!
– Pray about if God would have you give so we can continue doing what God has called us to do!
Much Love,
Mark & Bridget Moses
