CRM offers online prayer support. Let your ministry partners
pray for you.

Plea
se interact with God about these important prayer issues:
-Record numbers of people flooded our churches for Christmas festivities. Hundreds entered into a new relationship with God, through Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit was at work. Now let's continue to pray that these new believers plant themselves in churches and continue to grow in their faith.
-Mission Hills Church partnered with Catalyst Church, a young church in Canon City, to do a community gift distribution. Many families were touched with Christ's love. That's the power of working together!
-There is interest by two ministries in the Gering Baptist property. Please pray that God will lead us to the right buyer, and that we use the funds wisely to plant more churches.
- Mission Hills Church finished their building expansion just in time for Christmas services. Their new chapel, "The Grove," was used for Bud Peterson's Memorial service.
Petition
-Pastor Len Browning's mother Helen passed away December 26th. She was ninety three years old and was peacefully listening to great hymns of the faith with her family by her side when the Lord called her home. She was the oldest member of The Journey Church in Craig, Colorado. Please pray for Pastor Len and his family.
- Pray for the sale of two properties that CRM has on the market. Proceeds from these building will enable our movement to continue to push ahead with our vision to start 100 churches in 10 years.
-Pray for ministry families that are facing health issues, some very serious. Ask the Great Physician to bring miraculous healing according to His will,
-A cultural pastor needs to finish the process for his green card as soon as possible. Pray that God will expedite the process.

Former RMBC Executive Minister Bud Peterson Is Home With The Lord
Rev. Wilbur "Bud" Peterson, 91, former Executive Minster of Converge Rocky Mountain and most recently a staff member at The Rock of Southwest, passed away on December 11, 2018 after a life well lived in the service of his Lord. He was preceded in death by two wives, Donna (44 years) and Sue (21 years), one son, John, and one grandson, Thomas. He
 is survived by too many children, step-children, in-laws, and grandchildren to list here.
Pastor Bud led the district through a season of transition and exploration of new frontiers. Meadow Dale Camp, Estes Park, was purchased one day before he took office. Bud also invested himself in planting and strengthening struggling congregations in Utah and New Mexico. It is Bud's vision and his passion for the lost that continues to drive our efforts to plant healthy churches in Utah, New Mexico and throughout the Rocky Mountain West. Pastor Bud was loved by many and will be greatly missed.

CRM February Benevolence
One of the many ways that CRM strengthens partner churches is through caring for ministry couples. Sometimes we need to help with medical bills or counseling costs. Other times we have supplied grocery money or a scholarship. The CRM Benevolence Fund to cover those "care" costs. Once a year we ask partner churches to take a special offering for the fund, often after a communion service. Usually the offering is taken in February as we think about loving others. You can also give individually by clicking the link below. The more funds we have, the better we are able to care for our churches and ministry leaders. Thanks for your help.
