Eastside supports numerous missions locally and around the world. Below is a description of some of those works and links to allow you to support those directly. All funds collected from this page go to the specified mission and are added to budgeted amounts for these works.
BANKS FOR JESUS
Eastside collects Banks for Jesus funds twice a year to support mission efforts. Members collect change primarily to offset costs of members going for a short term mission. Funds collected from this contribution button are added to those funds.
In absence of a member need, the mission committee authorized funds to purchase Bibles for a foreign mission and to offset non-members costs for mission related expenses.
These funds provided assistance and materials for a VBS in South America. Funds also supported a local ministry in India working with children and widows.
Since these funds are designated funds they roll over fiscal years if not expended and are added to the following year.
LISA HENRY
Lisa is scheduled to serve as at the University of TX, Arlington campus ministry as part of her mission training. Eastside is serving as a sponsoring congregation for Lisa. This link is provided so anyone can support Lisa in this work.
Keep watch here for updates on her activities.
Soto Mission
We made it safely near the Border of Romania last night and stayed the night. It was quite a journey- but nowhere near what the Ukrainians are going through. On our way, we witnessed an attempt shoot down of a Russian fighter and damage right in front of us. We are safe.
Ukrainians are displaced and in much pain. But they are strong. We need to be in constant prayer for them and Ukraine and the world.
We will be meeting up with Albert Cook, a missionary of 20 years in Romania. We are considering helping with Refugees here in Romania.
Sorry for typos, I am hurrying to send this, we are in a refugee tent. The Romanians are absolutely amazing people. I have posted things on Instagram @sotosofhim that way you may see what some of the Ukrainians are going through. Our border crossing was at Port Isaccea. We had no wait, went straight through with no problems, we did hear that there are 8000-10,000 at other crossings in Romania. Our hearts hurt.
We are grateful for your prayers, we are safe, so please please turn your focus on the dear Ukrainians.
Love in Christ,
The Sotos
France: the Mohsens
Hello everyone,
This is our last report before flying to the states. We were supposed to visit last year but with the Covid and government ban, we were not able to fly out of France. To God be the Glory two more precious souls were added to the kingdom. Glory to God for this new brother and sister in Christ.
Rose isn’t able to start in home Bible classes yet due to Covid. So far our members stayed well from the Delta variant.
Prices are going up and up, just this month grocery prices have increased by 36%, in one week gasoline by 16% and natural gas in the past five years have gone upby 61%, I believe it’s the same way all over the world.
Thank you so much for your faithful support through the years. May God richly bless you and keep you in good health physical and spiritual.
Roland and Rose
