Joining Together to Do What We Cannot Do Alone
TOGETHER as EFC-ER, leaders are being developed, churches are growing in health, disciples are being multiplied, and God is being glorified. Would you consider giving a special gift to the Great Commission Budget to help make and multiply disciples through EFC-ER and around the world?

Check out the video below to find out more about what God is doing through EFC-ER.

Please pray for Russ and Sarah Badgley and their children as they have recently returned from the mission field to live in the United States. The Badgleys have served faithfully with EFM among the Shuar tribe of Ecuador. Their time on the field has been difficult with many serious illnesses. After a season of prayer, they have felt the Lord’s leading to return to the United States. Pray also that the Lord of the harvest will send more workers to reach the Shuar.
