Daniel and Darby Lindsay Approved as Associate Church Planters

North American Ministries (NAM) is happy to announce the approval of new associate church planters Daniel and Darby Lindsay. The Lindsays will serve at Summit FWB Church in Missoula, Montana, alongside Josh and Kimberly Hampton and Clayton and Tammy Hampton. Before joining the ministry at Summit, Daniel and Darby were faithful members of South Highland FWB Church in Muscle Shoals, Alabama. They have two sons: Duncan and Drake.

According to local surveys, over 90% of Missoula County is unchurched, revealing a desperate need for gospel-focused ministry in the area. Please pray for the Lindsays, the Hamptons, and the team at Summit as they work together to change these statistics and reach the Pacific Northwest with the hope of Christ.

The Well FWB Church Launches and Welcomes the Jamisons

Joe and Kari Jamison were recently approved to serve as associate planters at The Well FWB Church in Ypsilanti, Michigan, joining lead planters Greg and Hailey Smith. The Jamisons are Oklahoma natives and previously served as members of the West Tulsa FWB Church. They have two sons: Jace and Sullivan.

Ypsilanti has a population of 20,000 and lies 35 miles west of Detroit. “Ypsi,” as it is commonly called by locals, is diverse and growing with a dense population of Muslim and Hindu culture groups. A great need exists for healthy churches and gospel-centered ministry in this area.

On February 25, shortly after the Jamisons arrived in Ypsi, The Well officially launched with 156 in attendance. As the service started, volunteers had to bring in more chairs! Pastor Greg Smith preached a powerful message on “Starting Strong” from Ephesians 6. Please pray for the Smiths, the Jamisons, and their entire team as they continue making disciples in Ypsi and beyond
