Cross-Cultural Work

Cross-Cultural Opportunities

Cross-Cultural Internship

Missions Prayer Meetings

Children To Love (CTL)

Local Outreach

The LG Cross-Cultural Internship is a 2-year program for those among our Living Grace family that wish to be sent into an unreached people group. Our leadership trains and disciples the interns until they are ready to move into a training program through Radius International or Ethnos360
The second Sunday of every month, we meet together before Sunday service to pray for our missions and our cross-cultural workers at home and abroad.
Living Grace partners with CTL as they seek to "Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked" (Psalm 82:3-4).
There is also cross-cultural work happening within our own town! Bakersfield is home to many non-English-speaking immigrants who have no knowledge of Christ. See how you can be involved with reaching the unreached in your own neighborhoods!

Chad & Martha

Papua New Guinea - Ethnos360
Chad and Martha are working with Ethnos360 in Papua New Guinea as church planters in an isolated village. They have been married since January 2016, after Chad literally moved to a different continent to date Martha. They love spending time together some place warm and quiet like the beach. Martha grew up in Bakersfield and moved back in 2012. She pulled into town on a Sunday morning, went straight to church and then to the Pastor's Coffee, and was immediately amazed at Brian's love for the unreached. Chad was warmly welcomed to LG when they moved to Bakersfield the Fall of 2016 before heading overseas. Please pray for them as they serve our Lord by bringing His Word to an unreached people group on the other side of the world in Papua New Guinea.

International Cross-Cultural Workers

Various locations
Please pray for our members serving in areas of the world where Christianity is persecuted. We cannot put their information online for the sake of their personal safety, that of their friends, and the continuation of their ministry, but they need our prayers. Please ask about these members and keep them in your prayers! 

Patrick & Kylene

Ethnos360
Pat and Ky are working while they are going through the cross-cultural workers internship. When finished, they will go to training with either Radius International or Ethnos360 in hopes of one day being church-planters in an unreached people group. Both grew up in Palmdale as kids, but didn't meet until they were in junior high after both families had moved to Bakersfield. They have now been married since June of 2016 and welcomed baby Haddon Fall of 2017! On their days off they love to explore new cities, road trip to the beach where they can surf, or just relax and watch movies. Pat and Ky love being under Living Grace's elders and being a part of the body, who are truly excited and desire to be a part of the Great Commission. They love being a part of a like-minded community. Please pray for them as God leads them to the people they will one day reach with His Word!
