Chapel Pointe is on mission and we are inviting you to join us!
From Boston to Brazil to Romania, we are sending teams to share the Gospel throughout the world. We want to deepen relationships with current Chapel Pointe missionaries and partners, engage with God’s presence in a different cultural setting, and participate in events to make disciples and multiply transformed followers of Jesus.

Come back each month for updated prayers and praises from our missions partners!
Nancy Berends | Serving primarily in Togo, West Africa, based in West Michigan
Praises
After nearly three years of work, the project to connect lab equipment directly to the hospital software in Togo has been successfully implemented! Lab results now auto-import instead of being typed manually, and both doctors and patients have already noticed shorter wait times.
God continues to bring people to Himself through the healthcare ministries — in hospitals, mobile teams, and small clinics.
I’m deeply thankful for co-workers who faithfully share the Good News even as they meet people’s physical needs.
Prayers
Pray for God to provide a new medical director, as the physician who was to begin orientation in November has withdrawn.
Pray for one of our physicians who is struggling to raise financial support, that God would meet her needs abundantly.
Pray for God to send more laborers into His harvest fields, especially where the need is great and the harvest is ripe.

Continue to lift our teammates, the Fitzpatricks
Lift the Gende people. We have been thinking of our friends in the village on top of a mountain in PNG. Pray that their zeal for God’s Word to come to them would remain strong as they wait for their missionaries to move in.
Dave & Jan Santos | Serving in São Paulo, Brazil
Praises
Our BMM Brazil conference was refreshing and spiritually challenging with great times seeing colleagues we rarley get to see.
We went off grid ON PURPOSE for 15 days for the FIRST TIME EVER on a vacation. We’re ashamed of the bad example we’ve been in neglecting to do this for way too long. We’re determined to keep it up as our new habit!
God restored us in every way DURING those 2 weeks and our only request was, “May people see YOU shine through us”. We wish we could tell you all the amazing stories of unplanned opportunities to encourage, pray with, witness to, and bless workers, taxi drivers, store owners etc. It was incredible!

One of our faith goals for 2026 is to break into university campus ministries. We were present on 2 new campuses in the past month and communicated with leaders from several others!
Kiera was selected to serve on the leadership team at her University’s Christian Union as the outreach events coordinator. This will really stretch Kiera and help her grow as she is great at leading, but tends to stay in the background if not nudged 🙂
Prayer Requests:
Continue to pray that we can have a meeting with the national leaders of the two university Christian Union organizations
