Reaching the heroes of our land with the Saviour of this world
A SPECIAL WORD From Jeffery Wright Thank you so much for taking a few moments to get to know my family and I. We are excited to serve the Lord and humbled to be called to reach our U.S. military overseas. My family is a product of missions. While serving in the United States Marine Corps on the island of Okinawa, Japan I heard the gospel for the very first time. I accepted Jesus Christ as Savior on a December night and He changed my life forever. My wife was led to the Lord by a missionary's wife in Davao City, Philippines. We will be sent out by Lancaster Baptist Church and we are partnering with Baptist International Missions, Inc. Would you prayerfully consider the mission field of our U.S. military overseas, and how you can partner with us in reaching this needy people for the glory of God? We appreciate your prayers and support. May God continue to bless you and your ministry.
HOW TO PARTICIPATE Taking the gospel to our countries heroes As we are in the beginning stages of our deputation journey, we are excited to see what churches the Lord will allow us to partner with. We would be honored if you allowed us to be your church's representatives to our U.S. military. Please pray with us that the Lord will provide for our needs quickly to be on the field in January of 2018. The following are one of three simple ways we are asking people to faithfully participate: 1 2 Pray for us. More than anything, we need the power, presence, protection, and provision of God working in, through and around our lives. Support us monthly As the Lord impresses on your heart about the need for our military and their families, you can commit to us monthly through Baptist International Missions, Inc. 3 Provide a one-time love offering If you cannot commit to monthly support, perhaps you can provide with start-up costs and ministry expenses. This type of gift can be sent through Baptist International Missions, Inc. or can be sent directly to us.
WE BELIEVE In the Scripture's inerrancy, infallibility, and verbal, plenary inspiration; the Bible is the sole authority for faith and practice; it should be interpreted literally,historically, contextually, and grammatically, which lead to a dispensational view of Scripture. In the deity, virgin birth, sinless life, actual death, burial, bodily resurretion of Jesus Christ; He is ascended into heaven and presently sits at the right hand of the Father and will bodily return to earth prior to His millennial reign. In one holy, almighty, all-knowing, sovereign God, eternally self-existent in three pesons God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. That man was created perfect and without sin; after Adam's original sin, however, all men are universally sinful both by nature and by choice. That salvation was accomplished on the cross by Jesus Christ and is extended to all men as a gift to be received by faith in the finished work of Christ. That the local church is God's chosen tool for spreading the Gospel and instructing believers until Christ comes to rapture His church. In the imminent, pre-tribulational rapture of the church. In separating from current trends, groups, and philosophies which undermine the authority and authenticity of the Bible and its teachings.
PASTOR PAUL CHAPPELL LANCASTER BAPTIST CHURCH LANCASTER CA Greetings from Lancaster Baptist Church! I wanted to take a moment today to write you about two of our college graduates, Brother and Mrs. Jeffery Wright. Jeffery and Andrea both had an excellent spirit and testimony while they were training here at West Coast Baptist College, and exhibited a servant s heart and a love for the Lord and His work. God has laid a burden on their hearts for the military around the world, and they are looking forward to getting on the field as soon as possible. Please prayerfully consider taking on this couple for financial support as your missionaries so that fruit may abound to your account. RECOMMENDATIONS FROM PASTOR CHAPPELL AND DR SISK
THE WRIGHT FAMILY DR. DON SISK LANCASTER BAPTIST CHURCH LANCASTER CA It has been my privilege for the past several years to have Jeffery and Andrea Wright in mission classes and to watch their Spirital growth. While in Bible College they have been active in ministries such as teaching, soulwinning, discipling and other phases of ministry.

These good people will be a great blessing to any church that has them. Their ministry will bring dividends to the churches that support and pray for them.
