Less than 1% of the residents on the Native American reservation are Christians. Because of this, they are classified statistically as an “unreached people group.” And yet they are on American soil: soil they once owned that was taken from them with blood and lies! Today, reservations have the highest poverty rates, the highest suicide rates, and the highest school dropout rates in America. The infant mortality rate is 800% higher than anywhere in the U.S., the suicide rate among children is at such a high that in 2014 President Obama declared a state of emergency for Native American youth. The average life expectancy at Fort Belknap reservation in Montana is only 59 years old. A great injustice that must be reckoned.<\/p>\n

In August 2014, Mission:M25\u2019s heart was broken for these wonderful people on Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge aka HHMC. HHMC is a motorcycle ride of 10,000 to 14,000 miles on back roads with no motel stays or showers–a grueling ride to remember the plight of the Native American on the Trail of Tears and other marches. Every HHMC since 2014, Mission:M25 has presented a patch to those who make the ride. While on the ride, our hearts were broken for the Native American.<\/p>\n

Under the encouragement of Pastor Paul McElroy of Mountain Family Fellowship, in Helena, Montana, M25 began going to the largest Powwow in the U.S.–Crow Fair. Located just off Interstate 90, Crow Fair is just a few miles from where Col. Armstrong Custer was defeated at Little Big Horn. M25, with the assistance of Living Word PHC in Maiden, North Carolina, and Pastor Rick and Beverly Haug, began giving a horse away during the dance on Saturday night. After two years,\u00a0a decision was made to move to Hays, Montana, and work with Montana Indian Ministries.<\/p>\n

In 2018, M25 took twenty people to assist in the Powwow by offering water, Gatorade, our labor of picking up trash, a children\u2019s craft tent, and by giving a horse away. Pastor Bruce Plummer was very open and welcoming to the concept of adding a horse and children\u2019s craft tent to 13 years of picking up trash and giving coffee and water away. Pastor Cory and Jana Jones of Emmanuel Mission in Lake City, South Carolina, had received a donation of a tractor\/trailer rig from the South Carolina Conference and his boss, where he was employed as a concrete truck driver. Pastor Jones decided to join M25\u2019s effort by bringing 12 people\u00a0along with the trailer loaded with Bibles, water, Gatorade, and other supplies.<\/p>\n

During Pastor Cory and Jana\u2019s visit, already broken by the Holy Spirit to the need of reaching the Native American, God stirred their heart to not only return next year for the Powwow\u00a0but to move their family to Montana to work with Pastor Plummer on the reservation. Of course, timing was an issue, they felt the urgency to go, yet they had a pastorate to consider and three children. The war inside continued,\u00a0trying to find the perfect timing of the Lord.<\/p>\n

Acts2Day Ministries, under the encouragement of Bishop Garry Bryant, assigned the Jones\u2019\u00a0as missionaries to the Native American. The South Carolina Conference, with encouragement from all three leaders–Bishop Greg Amos, Rev. Dean Morgan,\u00a0and Rev. Morris Smith, decided to make it a reality for this young couple and family to fulfill this commitment.<\/p>\n

This year, 2019, our driving conviction is,\u00a0\u201cWe Prayerfully Value Justice\u201d, and if there is ever a good time for the IPHC to join the efforts of reaching a nation of people, it is now!<\/p>\n

Rev. Billy Graham prophesied in 1975 that the next great revival would come through the Native American. It has been followed by many spiritual leaders over the past 20 years agreeing the Native American would be the least of these that the Holy Spirit would use to usher in His next move in our country.\u00a0We are excited to have ministry seed invested in this possibility.<\/p>\n

On Thursday night, January 10, 2019, at the EVUSA Leadership Meeting in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, there was a time of sharing. Pastor Jones got up to share his heart on the timing of God and referred to an article written in 1918 in our Advocate. <\/em>Later, Presiding\u00a0Bishop Doug Beacham shared how a woman in Wolf Point, Montana, talked about being all alone with no Christians around her, and how we had to move to minister to the\u00a0\u201cinvisible people\u201d\u00a0of Montana. Pastor Jones shared how he had received a newspaper article from the pastor in Montana, written recently, 100 years later, on children committing suicide entitled,\u00a0\u201cI feel invisible.\u201d\u00a0Once asked what it would take to get him to Montana, he reluctantly admitted it was the money to survive. He, a white man, will live on the reservation which is unheard of. He will travel to three different reservations in North Eastern Montana, staying in an RV and ministering to children. Pastor Jones had been offered a church with a parsonage on the reservation, but he and Janna could not let go of their commitment and brokenness for children.<\/p>\n

The Jones’ need $2,000 to pay their bills each month. With the poverty rate and lack of industry in remote areas, finding employment is very difficult. A spirit of giving and commitment began to move in the meeting, and over $2,700 a month was raised in about ten minutes among men and women from around the country. Cory and Janna will now travel to New York City, New York, to work with Metro World Child for a week to sharpen their skills to reach children in difficult circumstances.<\/p>\n

Please know this will take care of the basic needs of these young missionaries, but there is a\u00a0need for fuel to travel from reservation to reservation, plus other ministry needs to reach those living in dire hopelessness that plagues the Native American.<\/p>\n

Aqu\u00ed, en el suelo de EE. UU., El suelo que una vez tuvieron, el suelo que les quitamos con sangre y mentiras Hoy en d\u00eda, las reservas tienen las tasas m\u00e1s altas de pobreza, las tasas m\u00e1s altas de suicidio y las tasas m\u00e1s altas de deserci\u00f3n escolar en los Estados Unidos. La tasa de mortalidad infantil es un 800% m\u00e1s alta que en cualquier otro lugar de los EE. UU. La tasa de suicidio entre los ni\u00f1os es tan alta que, en 2014, el presidente Obama declar\u00f3 un estado de emergencia para los j\u00f3venes nativos americanos. La expectativa de vida promedio en la reserva Fort Belknap en Montana es de solo 59 a\u00f1os. Una gran injusticia que hay que tener en cuenta.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong> En agosto de 2014, el coraz\u00f3n de la Misi\u00f3n M25 se rompi\u00f3 por estas maravillosas personas en Hoka Hey Motorcycle Challenge, tambi\u00e9n conocido como HHMC. HHMC es un viaje en moto de 10,000 a 14,000 millas en carreteras secundarias, sin estad\u00edas de motel ni duchas, un viaje agotador para recordar la dif\u00edcil situaci\u00f3n de los nativos americanos en el Sendero de las l\u00e1grimas y otras marchas. En todos los HHMC desde 2014, ha habido un parche M25 haciendo el viaje. Durante el viaje, nuestros corazones se rompieron por los nativos americanos.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong> Bajo el est\u00edmulo del Pastor Paul McElroy, Mountain Family Fellowship, en Helena, MT, M25 comenz\u00f3 a ir a Powwow, la feria m\u00e1s grande de los EE. UU., Crow Fair. Ubicado justo al lado de la carretera interestatal 90, Crow Fair est\u00e1 a solo unas millas de donde Col Armstrong Custer fue derrotado en Little Big Horn. El M25, con la asistencia de Living Word PHC en Maiden, Carolina del Norte y el coraz\u00f3n del pastor Rick y Beverly Haug, comenz\u00f3 a recoger la basura y regalar un caballo durante el baile el s\u00e1bado por la noche. Despu\u00e9s de dos a\u00f1os,<\/strong> se tom\u00f3 la decisi\u00f3n de mudarse a Hays, MT y trabajar con los Ministerios Indios de Montana.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong> En 2018, la M25 llev\u00f3 a veinte personas a asistir al Powwow ofreciendo agua, Gatorade, nuestro trabajo de recoger basura, una tienda de manualidades para ni\u00f1os y regalar un caballo. El pastor Bruce Plummer fue tan abierto y acogedor al concepto de agregar una tienda de manualidades para caballos y ni\u00f1os a 13 a\u00f1os de recoger basura y regalar caf\u00e9 y agua. El pastor Cory y Jana Jones, Emmanuel Mission en Lake City,<\/strong> SC<\/strong> ,<\/strong> recibieron una donaci\u00f3n de un tractor \/ remolque de la Conferencia de Carolina del Sur y su jefe, donde fue empleado como conductor de camiones de concreto. El Pastor Jones decidi\u00f3 unirse al esfuerzo de M25 trayendo a 12 personas junto con el remolque cargado con Biblias, agua, Gatorade y otros suministros.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong> Durante la visita de los pastores Cory y Jana, que el Esp\u00edritu Santo no hab\u00eda logrado romper con la necesidad de alcanzar a los nativos americanos, Dios hizo que su coraz\u00f3n no solo regresara el a\u00f1o que viene a Powwow sino que tambi\u00e9n se mudara con su familia a Montana para trabajar con el pastor Plummer. la reservacion. Por supuesto, el momento era un problema, sent\u00edan la urgencia de ir, sin embargo, ten\u00edan un Pastorato para tener en cuenta y tres hijos. La guerra en el interior continu\u00f3,<\/strong> tratando de encontrar el momento perfecto del Se\u00f1or.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong> Los ministerios Acts2Day, bajo el aliento del obispo Garry Bryant, asignaron a los Jones como misioneros a los nativos americanos. La Conferencia de Carolina del Sur, con el aliento de los tres l\u00edderes, el obispo Greg Amos, el reverendo Dean Morgan y el reverendo Morris Smith, decidi\u00f3 convertir en realidad para esta joven pareja y familia el cumplimiento de este compromiso.<\/strong> Este a\u00f1o, 2019, nuestra convicci\u00f3n de conducir es:<\/strong> \"<\/strong> Valoramos con justicia la justicia\" y si alguna vez es un buen momento para que la IPHC se una a los esfuerzos para llegar a una naci\u00f3n de personas, es ahora.<\/strong> El reverendo Billy Graham profetiz\u00f3 en 1975, que el pr\u00f3ximo gran avivamiento vendr\u00eda a trav\u00e9s del nativo americano. Muchos l\u00edderes espirituales lo han seguido durante los \u00faltimos 20 a\u00f1os, coincidiendo en que el nativo americano ser\u00eda el menor de estos que el Esp\u00edritu Santo usar\u00eda para marcar el comienzo de su pr\u00f3ximo movimiento en nuestro pa\u00eds. Estamos muy contentos de tener el ministerio semilla invertido en esta posibilidad.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong> La noche del jueves, 10 de enero de 2019, en la reuni\u00f3n de l\u00edderes de EVUSA en la ciudad de Oklahoma, OK, hubo un tiempo para compartir. El Pastor Jones se levant\u00f3 para compartir su coraz\u00f3n sobre el momento de Dios y se refiri\u00f3 a un art\u00edculo escrito en 1918 en nuestro Abogado, en el que el Obispo Doug Beacham comparti\u00f3 c\u00f3mo una mujer en Wolf Point MT habl\u00f3 sobre estar sola, sin cristianos a su alrededor y c\u00f3mo Tuvimos que movernos para ministrar a la<\/strong> \"<\/strong> gente invisible\" de Montana. El Pastor Jones comparti\u00f3 c\u00f3mo hab\u00eda recibido un art\u00edculo period\u00edstico del pastor en Montana, escrito recientemente, 100 a\u00f1os despu\u00e9s, sobre ni\u00f1os que se suicidan titulado<\/strong> \"<\/strong> Me siento invisible\". Una vez que le pregunt\u00e9 qu\u00e9 pasar\u00eda para llevarlo a Montana, admiti\u00f3 de mala gana. Era el dinero para sobrevivir. \u00c9l, un hombre blanco, vivir\u00e1 en la reserva, algo inaudito. \u00c9l viajar\u00e1 a tres reservaciones diferentes en el noreste de Montana, qued\u00e1ndose en un RV, atendiendo a los ni\u00f1os. Al pastor Jones se le hab\u00eda ofrecido una iglesia con una casa parroquial en la reserva, pero \u00e9l y Janna no pod\u00edan dejar de lado el compromiso y el quebrantamiento de los ni\u00f1os.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong> La cantidad necesaria para pagar sus facturas fue de $ 2,000 por mes, con la tasa de pobreza y la falta de industria en las \u00e1reas remotas, encontrar empleo es muy dif\u00edcil. El esp\u00edritu de dar y el compromiso comenz\u00f3 a moverse y se recaudaron m\u00e1s de $ 2700 al mes en unos diez minutos entre hombres y mujeres de todo el pa\u00eds. Adem\u00e1s, \u00e9l y Janna viajar\u00e1n a la ciudad de Nueva York, Nueva York, para trabajar con Metro World Child durante una semana para mejorar sus habilidades para llegar a los ni\u00f1os en las zanjas de la vida.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong> Tenga en cuenta que esto cubrir\u00e1 las necesidades b\u00e1sicas de estos j\u00f3venes misioneros, pero hay necesidad de combustible para viajar de una reserva a otra, adem\u00e1s de que otros ministerios necesitan llegar a aquellos que viven en la desesperada desesperaci\u00f3n que aqueja al nativo americano.<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong> Puede donar en:<\/strong> https:\/\/acts2day.org<\/strong><\/a> O env\u00ede su cheque a nombre de:<\/strong> ACTS2DAY Ministries<\/strong> \u00a0<\/strong> PO Box 12609, Oklahoma City, OK 73157<\/strong> Para Cory y Janna Jones, cuenta de soporte # 03689P<\/strong> Escrito por: Gary Burd","author_name":"","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2019\/01\/peter-kisteman-329830-unsplash-e1548174323726.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pbhxDC-jc","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1190","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/9"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1190"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1190\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1194"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1190"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1190"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/evangelism\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1190"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
