June 2013 Council Agenda - International Pentecostal Holiness ...

Robert Moore, International Director of the Ministry to the Military, longtime friend of the Weavers, has
offered us to Partner with them to do ministry with our own IPHC identity, using these Centers also as a
platform to do local church planting as IPHC.
Jeff and Miranda Weaver are both a product of these Serviceman Centers as their parents were military
and stationed all over Europe. Jeff has also served in the military throughout Europe, so they would be
well equipped to this type of ministry.
One of the perks available is to also have part time work on the base that puts you in touch with new incoming
personnel, if needed. The USO is the ideal employment, plus base employment gives access to
base prices for everything from gas to food.
Our goal is to get Jeff and Miranda to Europe and reaching the lost for Christ. Some will be military and
some local residence. I believe this is an open door for us to have a very unique outreach.
Support: The opportunity right now is to walk into an existing congregation which is already selfsupporting.
The funds that Jeff has raised would be used to supplement shortfalls as congregations
fluctuate as military are reassigned.

A unique opportunity has recently opened up for Jeff and Miranda from their old friend from their
Military days as children. Robert Moore is the International Director of Ministry to the Military (MTTM)
This is a program developed about 40 years ago by COG. The purpose was/is to provide off base
Interdenominational Pentecostal Churches for US servicemen and locals. They have "Service Centers" all
over Europe where there are US bases.
These Centers have been able to plant viable local churches as well as minister to the base personal,
some being permanent, others on 2 year assignments.
I talked to Bob Moore about Jeff and Miranda going to one of their Centers as Directors. He is willing to
partner with IPHC in any way to reach more people with the gospel. He said IPHC was instrumental in
helping start these Centers 40 years ago ( by Chaplains assigned overseas) so as far as he is concerned
we have as much right to benefit as other Pentecostals.
He has a number of openings coming up, because some of these Centers were led by Military personnel
and have been reassigned. Funding is already in place to support Jeff and Miranda with what they have
raised at this point,(about $1800 per month). There is housing and salary in place. ( I have attached a
few income statements he sent me from a couple of Centers.)
At this point I see this as a win win situation for the Weavers and for WMM. It gives us a platform to
Church Plant even from the Service Centers wherever they are in Europe.
