Pastor Jerrad Vahsholtz

Emmett, ID

$20,000
Needed
100% Funded
Stand with this ministry
the $20,000 van that carries Pastor Jerrad and his family roughly 30 miles each way to serve the Emmett campus — fully funded in June 2026.
The story

astor Jerrad Vahsholtz serves as the lead pastor of the Emmett campus of Christian Faith Center (CFC) in Emmett, Idaho — part of a multi-location church family that exists to “Love People to Life.” Jerrad and his family have poured their hearts into this rural community of roughly 8,000 people since the location launched in 2025.

Under his leadership, the church has experienced meaningful growth and spiritual fruit. Average attendance has risen from 53 to around 65, more than 30 people are actively serving in ministry, and 86 individuals have made decisions for Christ since the campus opened. Every service includes a clear Gospel invitation, and the church uses the Rooted discipleship model to help new believers grow in their faith.

Jerrad’s ministry is deeply relational and family-oriented. He and his wife, along with much of their family, serve side-by-side, modeling what it means to follow Jesus together. With a bold vision to see 10,000 decisions for Christ and help reach 10 cities, Pastor Jerrad and the CFC Emmett team are faithfully advancing the Gospel in a region with few life-giving churches.

Why support is needed

The $20,000 grant purchased a reliable van for Pastor Jerrad and his family to safely travel roughly 30 miles each way to serve and pastor at the Christian Faith Center campus in Emmett, Idaho — their previous vehicle was about to fail. This grant has been fully funded.

the $24,000 yearly operating budget — $2,000 a month for food, clothing, printed Scriptures, and route fuel.
The story

nited Hearts for Kids serves families and children across the Portland Metro who lack housing, warm clothes, or enough to eat. The work is weekly and the route stays the same so the relationships can build over time.

Every week the team distributes food, clothing, and Bibles to people on the route. The team shares meals, listens, and prays with anyone who is open to it.

The work runs on $2,000 a month — food, clothing, printed Scriptures, and gas. The team has been doing this every week and plans to continue as long as the Lord opens the door.

Why support is needed

The full year of weekly distribution runs on $24,000 — the $2,000-a-month budget has been verified by Supporting Stone. So far in 2026, five of twelve months have been funded ($5,000), and seven months remain.

If you can’t give, here’s what to pray for

Why support is needed

the final stage of construction — interior finishes, furnishings, and the basics of a home.
The story

any pastors in the North Caucasus serve small congregations without a salary or a way to take a sabbatical. Grace Haven Home is being built as a free retreat for those pastors and their families.

The home is a pastoral retreat in the North Caucasus. Pastors and their families can stay for a week, a month, or a season at no cost. Meals are provided. The goal is rest, so that when they return to their churches they have something left to give.

The building is in its final stage of construction — interior finishes, furnishings, and the basics of a home. Once complete, the home will host pastors year-round at no charge.

Why support is needed

Construction of the retreat home is in its final stage. The $10,000 needed for the remaining interior work and furnishings has been fully funded. Once complete, Grace Haven will be available to pastors and ministry leaders at no cost.

ten families on food assistance, children’s camps for twenty kids, school supplies, and Christmas + Easter aid.
The story

Across the villages of Kyrgyzstan, children are far from civilization. They work the fields with their parents, hand-milk cows, harvest in the summer, and rarely see what’s beyond the next ridge. Ray of Hope works in those villages to bring the Gospel and practical help to those children.

The 2026 work is concrete: ten families on food assistance through the lean months, a children’s camp for twenty kids, school backpacks and uniforms for ten students, a Christmas gathering for sixty at the house of prayer, Easter food sets for thirty families, and medical aid where it’s needed.

Three adopted children have already been placed in Christ-centered homes this year — a four-year-old, a nine-year-old, and a fourteen-year-old. The team continues working family by family.

Why support is needed

The current ask covers ten low-income families’ food, children’s camps for twenty kids, school supplies for ten, a Christmas gathering for sixty, and Easter food for thirty. $2,000 raised so far funds the children’s camp transportation and the most immediate humanitarian aid.

If you can’t give, here’s what to pray for
  • For the three adopted children — ages 4, 9, and 14 — that their homes would be safe and full of love.

  • That the children at this year’s camp would meet Jesus.

The story

athaniel and Lea Manning lead worldwide Gospel work — crusades, JesusCamps, and training new evangelists. Their vision is to see this generation running after God, churches united, and the nations reached with the Gospel.

Why support is needed

Manning’s on a Mission needs $36,055 to complete the remaining 2026 projects on the calendar — eight international Gospel campaigns, JesusCamps, and field gear. Monthly partner support of $2,000 covers ongoing operating costs (currently $5,500/month base).
