Until Christ is Formed
Dear Friends, One of the exciting events of this summer was Joshua Fellowship holding its Summer Intensive. In mid-August, Joshua Fellowship wrapped up the Intensive with its Capstone Retreat.

The Walk of Faithfulness
Dear Friends, In the early 2010s, Outpost followed God’s lead to create a new support group, which we named Elijah Company.
