Living Faith began a partnership with Brinnington Community Church in North Stockport UK (Manchester area) in the summer of 2020. This relationship is designed to assist Pastor Martin Korchinsky and his church members with outreach in the neighborhood where about 8,000 people live. The church building is centrally located in this working-class community and is made up of townhomes and apartments. Several groups in the area use the facility for community events and afterschool type experiences. Living Faith hopes to:
- Financially add to the stability of the BCC church ministry.
- Build a mutually beneficial/working relationship with BCC.
- Make trips to the church where members will be encouraged.
- Create an opportunity for LFCC members to share their faith in a cross-cultural context.
- Impact the city of Stockport with the Gospel of Christ.
- Share evangelistic skills with BCC members and develop outreach events in the community.
- Influence local believers in developing their faith sharing skills.

We have identified a small barrio in the Northwest part of Santo Domingo named Villa Hermosa. The barrio has a church plant named Benedicion Church which means Blessing. The church started through a clean water project, opened a small school, and constructed a beautiful church structure with the help of funds from Living Faith. The church is a dominate structure in this very poor community and has a dynamic relationship with the city mayor’s office. Living Faith has just partnered with the church and city in building a new basketball court with grandstands in the heart of the community. This basketball court will be the center of our gospel presentations. It is a great place to effectively share Christ over just a few days of visiting. Consider joining in a trip to the barrio.
