National Missionary Convention

Dear Friends,

This week (Nov 18-21, 2010) the National Missionary Convention of the Christian Churches and Churches of Christ will be held in Lexington, KY. (http://nationalmissionaryconvention.org/) My friend and colleague, Lee Bridges, will be leading a number of JONATHAN PROJECT worshops on site. I highly recommend these workshops as they will give you an understanding of what is happening in the world wide picture of carrying the Gospel to the least reached people groups on the planet...and how you might become involved!

I will not be attending the Convention this year...but will be at the Convention in Atlanta, GA, in 2011!

My next very important event will be in South Orange County, (California), with a group called "Finishing the Task." (www.finishingthetask.com) I will be partnering with about 30-40 other Mission Agencies and Organizations who are all dedicated to this global initiative- taking the Gospel to the least reached people groups on the planet! This is the first time THE JONATHAN PROJECT has been invited to this meeting. We are blessed and encouraged that we will be linking up with others who are dedicated to this world wide objective. I will have more to say about these meetings in future blogs.

I was very happy with the article written in the Nov 21/28, 2010, CHRISTIAN STANDARD, (Vol CXLV, Num 47) about the JONATHAN PROJECT! As we get this story out, more and more people are wanting to get involved...and that is a good thing. If you want to know more and/or become involved you can contact me personally at the email below. I can put you in contact with least reached people groups AND with modern day JONATHANS who are either already on the field or who are going into a very difficult area to preach the Gospel.

In this Thanksgiving season I am truly grateful for all who are partnering with us in this huge undertaking. What an exciting time to be alive!!!

Blessings,

Great News

Dear Friends,

Greetings to all of you from Boulder, CO. Judy and I are moved in and we have started an Interim Ministry with Boulder Valley Christian Church for six months to one year. (www.bvchristian.org) We are looking forward to the adventure. It has already been established that this move for us really is a "God-thing" in some pretty amazing ways. Our current plans are that we will continue our move North to Alaska once our assignment here is completed.

While here we will continue our global ministry with THE JONATHAN PROJECT as well as the developing ministry of HEART AND SOUL90, which is the energizing support base for THE JONATHAN PROJECT. As I have mentioned in other places, our five year goal is to see 100,000 churches planted among the least reached people groups of the world. Our first year goal was to see 5,000 multiplying churches planted among the least reached people groups. From the various reports we are receiving we are on our way to meet that goal for this year!

Many of you will have the opportunity to read the article I have written in The Christian Standard (www.christianstandard.com) That article has generated a lot of discussion- all good I might add. We are working hard to get this word out that there are specific ways to connect modern day JONATHANS with unreached people groups. It is our objective to see that all people hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ and that they are able to make that personal decision of receiving Jesus Christ as their Savior and as their Lord! If you would like to know more about the possibilities of getting connected- send me an email: graydon.jessup@gmail.com We will connect you with an unreached people group and with JONATHANS who are trained and ready to carry the Gospel to the least reached on the globe! You can make an eternal difference in the lives of those who have never heard!

Let's be in contact and let's see where this might all lead us!

With many thanksgivings!

Graydon and Judy Jessup
