In this Faith Promise message, Rev. Dr. Francisca Ireland shares her personal journey and current work in missions, drawing from her Dutch heritage and her role at Boston University's seminary, where she trains international students to spread the gospel worldwide. She recounts the fascinating history of the Church of the Nazarene in China, established in 1914, noting how the faith unexpectedly flourishes even after missionaries are expelled in 1941. This narrative highlights the enduring nature of faith and the resilience of the church, which thrives even when driven underground. Dr. Ireland emphasizes God's faithfulness and encourages generosity in supporting missions, assuring listeners that God is abundant in His giving and seeks to work through them. She challenges the us to consider our participation in global missions through prayer and financial commitment, trusting in God's provision.
