🌍 THE HOOPER FAMILY — SOUTH AFRICA 🇿🇦

Meet the Hooper Family — Blaine, Holly, Raya, and Lincoln, church-planting missionaries called by God to take the Gospel to South Africa.

After the Lord began working in both Blaine and Holly’s hearts about missions, Blaine stepped away from his career with the City of Atlanta Fire Department, and their family began preparing for the work God had called them to do. They are sent out of Whitfield Baptist Church in Dalton, Georgia, in partnership with Vision Baptist Missions.

South Africa is home to more than 62 million people, representing many cultures, people groups, and 12 national languages. The Hoopers have a burden to reach people who have never clearly heard the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Their vision is simple but far-reaching: witness to the lost, disciple believers, plant local churches, and train national men to lead and pastor those churches. Their prayer is to see strong national churches established that will not only reach their own communities but eventually send the Gospel around the world.

🙏 Would you pray for the Hooper family?

Please pray for the first South Africans they will meet—that hearts will be open to the Gospel. Pray that they will see souls saved even while traveling on deputation, that the Lord will provide the meetings and monthly support needed to reach South Africa, and that He will provide their necessary setup funds.

You can also be an encouragement to this family as they prepare to go! Visit https://MisforMissions.org to learn more about the Hooper family, pray specifically for their ministry, and find out how you can help support their work financially or prayerfully.

Let’s stand behind missionaries like the Hoopers who are willing to go and take the Gospel where God has called them. ❤️🇿🇦

🌍 Missionary Spotlight: Luke & Vivienne Magner 🇮🇹

God often begins preparing His servants long before they realize where He is leading them.

Luke Magner was raised in a faithful Christian home in Pennsylvania and trusted Christ as his Savior at the age of seven. During a teen rally when he was fifteen, he surrendered his life to whatever God wanted. That night, the Holy Spirit placed Italy on his heart. Through the years, the Lord faithfully confirmed that calling, and after earning his bachelor's degree in Missions from New England Baptist College in 2024, Luke continues preparing to take the Gospel to the people of Italy.

Vivienne grew up in western Massachusetts as a pastor's daughter. She accepted Christ as her Savior when she was four years old. Having witnessed the challenges of ministry firsthand, she never imagined becoming a pastor's or missionary's wife. Yet God had different plans. Through His Word and the influence of Luke, the Lord used Isaiah 6:8 to soften her heart and lead her to fully surrender to His perfect will for missions.

Together, Luke and Vivienne have a burden to see a Bible-preaching Baptist church established in every one of Italy's 107 provinces. Today, there are only about ten independent Baptist churches reaching Italians in their own language. Their desire is to reach people through consistent Gospel outreach, personal discipleship, and planting churches where there is little Gospel witness.

Even while on deputation, God continues to open doors. This past May they were able to visit Canada for the first time, sharing their burden for Italy with churches there and gaining a greater appreciation for how God works through different cultures around the world.

🙏 Please pray with us for the Magner family:
• Wisdom as they search for a new place to live while traveling on deputation.
• Safety as they travel from church to church.
• A full schedule of meetings to share their burden for Italy.
• The Cook family in Reggio Emilia, Italy, with whom they will serve when they first arrive.
• Grace to learn the Italian language quickly.
• Safe travels and the opportunity to obtain Italian citizenship.
• Most importantly, that many Italians would come to know Christ as their Savior.

Italy is rich in history and beauty, but millions have never heard a clear presentation of the Gospel. Would you join us in praying that God raises up more laborers and opens doors for churches to be planted throughout the country?

🌎 M is for Missions – Meet the Horton Family 🇭🇳

Jeremiah Horton trusted Christ as his Savior at the age of nine while attending Faith Baptist Camp. After his parents answered God's call to Honduras, he spent his teenage years there learning the language, embracing the culture, and building relationships with the Honduran people.

After marrying his wife, Kelsey, in 2014, Jeremiah devoted himself to building a successful career. Though he remained faithful to church, he admits his heart had drifted from the Lord. In 2023, God began working in his life, reminding him that earthly success could never compare to investing in eternity. Together, Jeremiah and Kelsey surrendered their family's future to the Lord, willing to serve wherever He would lead.

In 2024, Jeremiah left his six-figure government job and began serving on mission trips whenever the opportunity arose. One of those trips took him to Santa Bárbara, Honduras, where he served alongside veteran missionary Bro. Don Hilbun. Seeing the great need for laborers—and after much prayer—the Lord confirmed His calling, not only in Jeremiah's heart but in Kelsey's as well. When the Horton family returned together later that year, God made it clear that He was leading them to serve as directors of the Children's Home.

The Horton family—Jeremiah, Kelsey, Tucker, Hudson, and Amelia—are preparing to serve in Honduras, where they will direct the Children's Home while assisting in the local church, helping plant churches in surrounding villages, and working to establish a Christian school and Bible Institute.

Please pray with us for the Horton family:
🙏 Safety as they continue traveling on deputation.
🙏 That they will complete deputation and be fully supported by the end of 2026.
🙏 Wisdom and God's provision as they seek a vehicle, a rental home, and eventually land to expand the Children's Home ministry.
🙏 That many souls would be saved, believers would grow in the Lord, and churches would be strengthened throughout Honduras.

Would you prayerfully consider partnering with the Horton family? Your prayers, encouragement, and financial support help missionaries answer God's call and take the Gospel to those who need to hear it.

🇳🇱 Missionary Spotlight: The Campbell Family 🇳🇱

Every missionary has a story, and the Campbell family’s story is one of faithfully following God’s leading—even when it meant leaving a ministry they loved.

Bro. Campbell trusted Christ as his Savior at the age of seven. Years later, during a youth ski trip, God called him to preach the Gospel. Since then, he and his wife, Sommer, have faithfully served the Lord while raising their two daughters, Ava and Ella.

The Lord continued to direct the Campbell family's path, eventually leading Bro. Campbell to pastor Landmark Baptist Church in Cleburne, Texas, in March 2020. What began during the height of COVID with about 20 people became a beautiful testimony of God's blessing. Over the next five and a half years, the Lord brought nearly 500 first-time visitors. Souls were saved, believers were baptized, men were trained to preach, a church was built in Africa, and 20 new missionaries were added for monthly support. The congregation grew to around 100 faithful believers in a 91-seat auditorium.

God was blessing in remarkable ways. Humanly speaking, they had every reason to stay.

Yet in the middle of that exciting season of ministry, God began working in their hearts about missions. Although they had no reason to leave, God was giving them a reason to go.

He burdened them for the people of the Netherlands—a nation of more than 18 million people with only two independent Baptist churches of like faith. Today, the Campbell family is preparing to plant a Bible-preaching church in the Rotterdam area.

The Lord has already been blessing their deputation. During the first few months of 2026, the Campbell family traveled through 10 states, gained 15 new supporting churches, and reached over 33% of their support goal. Along the way, God has opened doors to encourage churches, share the Gospel, distribute Bibles, and be a blessing to many people they meet.

🙏 Please pray for the Campbell family as they ask God for:

• Safety as they travel on deputation.
• Funds for their October trip to the Netherlands (approximately $8,000).
• The Lord to provide a home for their family before their planned move to the Netherlands in Spring 2027.
• More churches and individuals to partner with them through monthly support.

❤️ Would you prayerfully consider becoming part of their story?

Through M is for Missions, you can:

Every prayer, every encouraging note, and every gift helps the Campbell family take the Gospel to the people of the Netherlands.
