We are here in Los Angeles not only to make disciples, raise up leaders and plant churches, but to see God’s Kingdom advance in every direction and dimension leading to a church-plant movement.
Part of keeping us healthy spiritually, emotionally and relationally and on track with this purpose is a monthly meeting with other area pastors to fellowship, encourage and resource one another.
The purpose of The Urban Pastors Association (UPA) is to glorify God by expanding and advancing God’s Kingdom among the urban poor through the making of disciples and church planting. We come from churches of all different sizes and shapes, but we all hold to this purpose. The first Saturday morning of every month we get to see and experience God’s commanded blessing (Psalm 133) and a renewed sense of hope and strength through this band of brothers and sisters working for Jesus in unity.
We recognize that though God has big plans for our church Fuente para las Naciones it is still just a piece of the big global picture of what God is doing. As we mentioned in our last post, we got to see that first hand at a conference geared for pastors throughout Mexico at Fabiola’s home church in Puebla, Mexico. This was a huge time of being refreshed and further equipped for the task before us. There was such a generous outpouring of love and prayer. It is amazing being united in purpose and vision internationally as well as locally.
Thank you for your faithful prayers as we continue to work together to see that, as many as possible, people might know our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
Chad and Fabiola Wolyn
