On Sunday, January 26, Kristy LaBarge presented the message at the 9:30 service in the First Presbyterian sanctuary.

A special thanks to Kristy for her work and service as we keep I.M.P.A.C.T. in our prayers and hold it up as the Mission of the Month for February at First Presbyterian Santa Paula.

Kristy has been the Director of I.M.P.A.C.T (International Missions Partnerships & Cross-cultural Training) since 2013.

I.M.P.A.C.T was formed 20 years ago based on  the principle that we can do a better job preparing people to be missionaries.  Gathering people from across California I.M.P.A.C.T organizes and trains teams during a three day seminar preparing them to serve one to three weeks in countries around the world.

I.M.P.A.C.T’s mission, “is to form, train and send teams, prepared to serve Christ and his Church through cross-cultural mission journeys that nurture the ministries of global partners and train participants to be missionaries at home.”

Currently global partnerships include countries such as: Ecuador, Haiti, Honduras, Albania, Romania, Ukraine, Uganda, India, China, Mexico, Turkey, and Brazil.
