Eyes to See and Ears to Hear
Nehemiah’s Call began through a heart of prayer and missions. At the foundation of this call has been to see new churches emerge, emotional and spiritual healing in the body of Christ and announce the Gospel. The original plan was to launch out through a local church or movement but for fund raising and administration needs was set up through the IRC 501 c 3 guidelines as a separate not for profit organization instead.
Nehemiah’s Call functions through a board that consists primarily of ordained ministers. The primary minister, Lawrence R. Yoder is ordained as a teacher/preacher/marketplace minister with the Virginia Mennonite Conference. The ordination took place on July 15, 2007 at the Immanuel Mennonite Church in Harrisonburg Virginia.
In the past we have functioned in an apostolic manner as a sending and releasing instrument of the local church on a project basis. Individuals have come to us or we to them and have counseled, prayed and encouraged them with words. We continue to be open to working with those called yet not released into the fullness they sense as a call from Jesus Himself. Or maybe they feel as a misfit or are blocked by church structures.
In the past we have functioned in a prophetic manner as a teacher and facilitator of prayer research, prayer updates and prayer strategy in a variety of settings. We have been invited to speak and teach primarily using the Bible as our text. We have developed curriculum and published books through our New Wineskins Publishing arm.
Lawrence, the primary minister is available for preaching or teaching dates. Since he is bi-vocational fair market value is not necessary and could provide relief to cash strapped congregations or movements. His style can be adapted to fit evangelistic needs, more direct messages or include participatory flavor in group settings. Beginning September 1, 2011 he is releasing his name to be available for interim preaching or teaching assignments within the Mennonite Church, any local denomination or non-denomination or movement. In the meantime he would consider up to quarter time roles and preaching dates. Please contact him.
