“not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.”

Hebrews 10:25

APRIL 1st, 2026

THE VAUGHN’S

Can you believe that it has been 4 years and our time in training is over this month? Neither can we! We have learned so much about what it takes to take the gospel to the unreached. The wisdom and advice of church planters given to us from Papua New Guinea The Philippines Brazil Indonesia Tanzania and so many more! On April 18th we will graduate from Ethnos360 with the blessing and approval of spiritual giants. No words can describe the emotions we feel as we finish up. We are so grateful that God would give us this amazing privilege to partner with Him in building His Kingdom.

2026 Men’s Hike

Geoffery got another opportunity to co-lead the hike for this year. They focused on biblical manhood and preparing their mind, body, and soul for the mission field. It was physically hard, emotionally awesome, and spiritually challenging.

Rachel and the boys did a hike of their own!

Happy Birthday!

Rachel celebrated her 29th birthday. We are so grateful for the loving care and joy that she brings our family.

Lighthouse

Geoffery taught his last lesson at the lighthouse ministry that he has been doing for the last 2 years. This has been one of the highlights of his time at the training. There are some phenomenal men in that program that need your prayers to continue to grow. He's been learning so much about Foundational Bible Teaching. The lesson development and the evaluated experience that he has gotten has improved his communication skills so much.

Appleton City Fellowship

We are renting a new building for church! It is in the center of town and it has been such an encouragement to have a consistent place to grow in love and knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The youth have stepped up and been owning their faith. They have been volunteering to help in kids ministry and we are so proud of their growth!
