For the past 15 years, God has been moving through our campus in Buenos Aires, Argentina.

Pastor Felipe has been leading WAIO Argentina since the beginning and has functioned as the church’s primary financial supporter, in partnership with members of the congregation. This financial responsibility is a remarkable sacrifice on the part of Felipe and his family, who have carried a burden with the Lord for the nation.

Recently, the economy has taken a massive hit with inflation as high as 10%, now pushing towards 20%. The church has been renting a meeting space, but the rent has become unbearable, costing more than $5,000 a month. Felipe was personally paying for this expense until he unexpectedly lost his job.

In an act of great faith and sacrifice, Felipe decided to use his severance package to purchase a building for the church. With the initial cost of the building taken care of, the church has been slowly trying to raise enough money for refurbishing. Specifically, $160k is needed for the first phase of remodeling. Felipe and his church have invested thousands of their personal finances to support this project, but the need is still great.

The project is moving at a fast pace, and the church expects to move into their new building within three months. They must raise money quickly in order to keep construction moving forward.

Church, this is an opportunity for you to “lend a hand to the nations” as Deuteronomy 28:12 tells us to do. WAIO Argentina is a light unto Buenos Aires and the nation, and it is a worthy place to sow our seed.

Please consider helping Felipe and his church get over the hump. Every dollar counts. Watch this video and give now! >>

The biblical month of Tevet aligns with the start of the new year on the Gregorian calendar (Dec. 24-Jan. 22). This is a time for getting our affairs in order and setting our priorities straight. It is a month when The Lord wants to separate the light from the darkness in our lives so we can see clearly. It is a vision-casting season!

Pastor Kent and Beverly sought the Lord for His vision for Word Alive International Outreach (WAIO) in 2023. Two separate prophecies confirmed that this is the “Year of Light” for our ministry.

“Justice” was the word for 2022, and we saw how angels of justice were sent to many nations, denouncing oppression, abuse and authoritarianism of unjust governments. This will not diminish in 2023 but will increase, for God’s justice always leads us to the Light. This liberation of light will come to our homes, ministries and cities. To God be the glory!

He will bring forth your righteousness as the light, and your justice as the noonday. (Psalm 37:6 ESV)

Interestingly, 2023 began on a Sunday—the first day of the week—and will also end on a Sunday. This will not happen again until 2062. Note that it was on day one of creation that God said, “Let there be light.” Christ—the Light of the world—was resurrected on the first day of the week, as well. We are believing we will have a year surrounded by light, where light is the measure of all things. It is a time when day and night (light and darkness) will have sharp definition so that God’s righteousness will have more weight, and the church will become more sensitive to it (Revelation 22:11).

Kent and Bev were in Alaska when the Father took them to the house of Light and told them that seven rooms would be revealed in this beautiful abode to enable the saints to access greater levels of light. The seven rooms He revealed are:

1. Rest
2. To eat the bread of heaven (to do the will of the Father)
3. Confession
4. Honor (surrender our desires to Him)
5. Covenant
6. Gratitude
7. Forgiveness

The Lord calls us to be “scatterers of light” (Shedeyúr) this year, so that the angels of righteousness may continue to do their work. But if we are to receive the blessings God has for us, we must get over the disappointments of the past. It is essential to move beyond unbelief and establish ourselves in a position of faith.

But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him. (Hebrews 11:6 NKJV)

We believe that WAIO is not just a local church, but an apostolic epicenter of transformation. As such, we will continue our work to promote freedom across the globe. It is also our desire to shift the bulk of spiritual activity from our church building into people’s homes. We envision these “houses of light” to be places where families and neighbors encounter Christ together.

We want to equip and empower our faith family to lead their own houses of light, and the first step is participation in our Transformation course. This foundational class will be offered monthly on our campus, and materials are also available for those who would like to complete the training individually or with a small group. View our online event calendar for scheduled classes.

We are excited about what God is going to do in and through WAIO in this Year of Light! For more information on how you can get involved and be a part of the Lord’s vision for 2023, please send us a message!

Pastor Alex and his family immigrated to the U.S. from Ukraine in 1991 to escape persecution for their faith. Now, “in such a time as this,” he feels like Esther, as he has been called to rise up for his home country.

Alex shared that churches are growing and Holy Spirit is moving mightily in Ukraine. Of course, there are evil forces working against this move of the Spirit, but even where the devil planned division, the church is uniting.

Alex testified that prayer is making a difference in Ukraine. He’s seen photos of giant missiles that landed in houses but didn’t detonate, proving that “no weapon formed against you shall prosper” (Isaiah 54:17). Miracles are happening, God is intervening and people are coming to Christ.

God’s favor has been upon Alex in his mission, and he has secured warehouse space where supplies are being packed into shipping containers to be sent abroad to help those who are suffering. As a church, we are collecting monetary donations to help Alex’s team send food, medicine, blankets and other necessities to the Ukrainian people who are in desperate need.

Please pray for protection over Alex as he travels to his homeland, that the Lord’s favor would continue to be upon him as he takes the seed we’re sowing and blesses those whose lives are being torn apart by war.

Give now to support this Ukraine initiative.
