Dear Friends,

It’s hard to believe that we’ve been on mission in Colorado for a year now. It’s been one crazy ride! Missi and I were talking about all of the miracles that God provided to get us here. There were so many miracles that it would take several of these letters just to give you a glimpse into how much God has done to get us to where we are. We are so grateful for God’s provision and leadership. 

We are also very grateful for your prayer support over this past year. Without your faithfulness to pray for us, this letter would be very different. Thank you so much! We are humbled by your thoughts and prayers and know that without you we would not be able to be here.

Having said that, we are now at the place in our ministry where we need so much more than we can provide out of our personal budget. Thankfully, we are debt free, aside from our house. But the church plant is ready to take off and we need your help.

A few months ago we were invited to teach at a little church within our target area. After two months of teaching on spiritual health, we were approached by one of the elders who asked, “How can we close the doors of this church and follow a vision like yours?” We were blown away by their question. With that question in mind I began to lead the church in a month-long fast and prayer time. Many of you knew about this and prayed along with us. 

After months of praying and fasting, the church decided to turn over their property, leadership, and accounts to us to replant a church with a new vision in the same location. They decided to join our team to begin working toward growing the Kingdom of God in Northern Colorado. This is such a tremendous gift from God! God has also given us a name, Revive. 

As exciting as that sounds, we now find ourselves looking to launch Easter Sunday, 2020! With such a great opportunity also comes a great financial burden. We estimate we’ll need nearly $100,000.00 for the first year. 

 We are so thankful to have a building but it needs lot of work, such as: completing the youth area (a separate building), cleaning, painting, adding children’s and youth equipment, new sound equipment, lighting, computers for worship services and children’s and youth environments, parking lot work, playground update, and educational material for small groups, and so much more. Thankfully our building is paid for, so the resources we raise will go towards the critical areas mentioned above.

We need your help! We are not asking for anyone to give a specific amount to our church. We are asking you to give as you feel led by God to give. We ask you to pray for wisdom and then give accordingly and generously. Our home church, Vertical, in Gluckstadt, MS has an account set up in our name. It’s called the Perry Project, Colorado. You can give to us on the Vertical site and have confidence that your gift will be used to further God’s Kingdom here in Colorado. And your contribution is tax deductible. We hope you will join our effort to make disciples of Christ in Northern Colorado by giving generously. 

We will start vision services for the community beginning in January. We hope to have at least three vision services and then we will launch Revive for regular services on Easter Sunday of 2020.

Thank you for sharing this journey with us to see many come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, our Lord!

Living Sent, 

The Perrys: Steven, Missi, Caleb, Isabel, Lily, and Sam
