September 2026 Newsletter Update
Ministry Updates from West Virginia, Brazil and Cambodia
Dear Partners and Friends,
We hope your summer is going well. Thank you for continuing to pray, give and serve alongside Bridges for Life Ministries. Your partnership helps us share God’s love in practical and meaningful ways, both close to home and around the world.
Children’s Outreaches in Southern West Virginia
We recently returned from a domestic mission trip to McDowell County, West Virginia, one of the poorest counties in the United States. Our team led three children’s outreaches in the communities of Gary, Bradshaw and Davy. Through these gatherings, we connected with children and families and shared God’s love in practical and meaningful ways.
We also had the privilege of visiting a recent widow who has been a blessing to our ministry over the past two years. We are grateful that we could come alongside her during this difficult season.
Discipleship and Church Planting in Piraquara, Brazil
In Brazil, the second discipleship group planted after our recent door-to-door evangelism has held its first meeting. We are trusting and praying that these discipleship groups will grow into new churches as believers gather, learn and reach their communities for Christ.
One of our discipleship groups in Piraquara, Brazil, needs a consistent meeting space. A location is available for rent on the corner of the local park for $335 per month.
- Location: Piraquara, Brazil
- Need: A meeting space for a growing discipleship group
- Monthly rent: $335
If you feel led to help provide this space, please contact Bridges for Life Ministries. You can also learn more about our approach to discipleship and church planting.
Evangelism and Church Support in Cambodia
Evangelist Lam Leb is seeking part-time support of $200 per month for her ministry in Cambodia. She ministers from house to house and in hospitals, bringing the Word of God and meals to people in need.
- Missionary: Evangelist Lam Leb
- Ministry: House-to-house and hospital evangelism
- Monthly support need: $200
We are also thankful to report that, through the generous donations of our partners, the bathroom for the fourth church in Cambodia has been completed. Thank you for helping meet this important practical need. Learn more about our ongoing church construction and ministry projects.
Pray and Partner with the Mission
Please pray for the children and families reached in McDowell County, the discipleship groups growing in Brazil, and Lam Leb’s evangelism ministry in Cambodia. If you would like to help meet one of these needs, visit our partner page or send us a message.
