October Update 2024

October 2024

Good morning from the Hopkins Financial team! Our staff is finally recovering Wi-Fi after hurricane Helene, and we are grateful to be able to connect with you all again. Our hearts go out to the many people who have experienced great loss due to the storm. We are so grateful for God's gracious hand of protection! He has promised to be our Rock and Fortress, and we have seen that proven true in this storm of life. Praise God for the many testimonies of protection during this unsettling time!

One such testimony to God's faithfulness is the fact that several of our staff were able to attend an outreach even at the Ark Encounter in Kentucky.

Michael, Ariel, and Kevin were able to travel as part of the cast and crew for Paul the Apostle--a production about the missionary journeys of Paul produced by the Logos Theatre. The production was part of a pastors' conference with the goal of encouraging today's faithful Church leaders.

Because of the storm, things were very uncertain, and it seemed like the team would not be able to make the trip. God, however, made a way! The production was not only a blessing to those watching, but to those performing as well. It was a humbling, refreshing experience. Please pray with us that the impact made would be a lasting one, and that the pastors who attended would continue faithfully in the work God has given them.

With things beginning to get back to normal, we have been able to put effort into creating more ministry partnerships.

One new partnership went into effect this past week! Be on the lookout for our November newsletter for an exclusive first-look at our newest partners.
