Seth & Emily Phippen Newsletter (Winter 2024)

Around the World 

Since moving to the USA, one of the biggest differences Emily and I have experienced is working with Teen Missions staff from all over the world. While in Malawi the work was exclusively with Malawians. Now the ministry we are part of is with people from over 18 countries! During the Christmas and New Year holidays, numerous Teen Missions country leaders organized impactful youth discipleship camps. I have been working with these leaders to help them get everything ready for the camps, from sourcing supplies and finances to promotion and schedule planning. God made a way for over 1,200 youth and leaders to be involved in these camps! This is just the beginning. Many of these youth and leaders will also join the Teen Missions Bible schools around the world. This spring I will help Teen Missions leaders in the Philippines, Zambia and other countries within the 10/40 window to run youth discipleship programs. Please pray for Emily and I as we do our best to serve our brothers and sisters around the world.         

Germany 

This summer Emily and I will be taking a group of 20 teens to Germany to work alongside the partners I made there. In addition to serving with our Ukrainian friends, we will also partner with another ministry that serves people from different countries living in Germany. We will be involved in a Ukrainian youth camp like I was last year. Our team will do evangelistic activities in Germany as we partner with others who serve Christ in this beautiful country! Emily and I are looking for financial support for our family to accomplish this.        

Family 

We had a great time with five of my siblings and their families who came to Florida this holiday season. What a joy it was to spend time with them. It was hard to do things like that in Africa. Emily and the kids are doing well. As we started the new year, we all got hit with a cold that lasted a few weeks but we are all feeling better now. The kids are enjoying homeschooling, their Sunday school classes and the many friends they have made here. In addition to all Emily is doing, she is also helping to lead a ladies’ Bible study at our church this spring.     

You are making a difference! 

These things are all possible because of the partnership team we have. If you’re interested in supporting this work that God is doing, contact us and learn more about how you can get involved in what God is doing. We are looking for individuals, families and churches that would partner with us in prayer and giving. 

Praise: 

Thank God for all that he has done through the ministry of Teen Missions around the world this past year. 

God has given us joy in the ministry and a great family in the Teen Missions staff. 

God continues to provide for us every month.

Prayer:

Please pray for Emily and I as we are a part of ministry all Around the World.

Pray for the teens that we lead this summer to Germany. Pray that God would teach them more about Himself.  

Pray for our family to be bold and courageous as we share about Christ. 

Thank you for following the work that God is doing through Teen Missions. Every time that you pray for us, send us a letter, message, or a financial gift you are taking part in what God is doing through Teen Missions. Your unwavering commitment to impact the lives of people around the world is truly remarkable and deeply appreciated. 

Thank you for your involvement. We could not do this without you.

Soli Deo Gloria,

Seth & Emily Phippen,

James, Lauren, Emma, and Sadie
