The Mission North America Offering not only provides necessary resources for church planting, church revitalization, cross-cultural ministries, the chaplaincy, and men’s ministry, but it also provides for vital ministry funding such as conferences, training, encouragement, and other essential ministry needs to assist our established churches, church planters, revitalization pastors, chaplains and more. Our church planters are planting churches across the United States as well as Mexico, the Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico. Our chaplains are ministering to thousands of men and women in uniform, and our cross-cultural church planters are connecting with the millions of people who have come to America from all over the world.
Please help us reach our goal of raising $750,000 by giving generously to the Mission North America Offering on Sunday, November 19, 2023!
Mission offerings are accepted in-person or online.
Daniel and Kate Speer met at Free Will Baptist Bible College (now Welch College) in the Fall of 2006. They were married in 2008 and were called to Japan to share the gospel with Japanese people in 2011. Since then, they have had three kids: Audrey, Analeigh, and Owen…and now have a fourth one on the way! Kate grew up in Japan as the child of veteran missionaries Donnie and Ruth McDonald, who has served the Lord with IM for over 35 years.
The Speers are returning to serve in Hokkaido, Japan’s northernmost island. The climate there is often cold and snowy, yet the island is also home to Japan’s fifth-largest city: Sapporo
