Today on The Stories Collective we have a special guest host, our Missions Pastor Jamie Engram! Jamie had the chance to sit down in the studio with missionaries that Desert Springs helps to support in The Philippines, David and Kenda Jerome. If you were with us at church this past weekend (Feb. 24/25) you probably saw David + Kenda speaking in our services! David walks through what their journey to becoming missionaries was like. It is a unique story involving years of encounters with a missionary to The Philippines. Kenda really felt passionate in pursuing missions, but it took a little longer for David to get there. But once he did it was all systems go! Listen in to hear about how David and Kenda started in leading short-term trips with their church to the Philippines and how it eventually led them to working on the mission field full-time. You'll also get to hear some amazing stories about the work God is doing daily in The Philippines through the Jeromes and their ministry partners. They've not just seen individuals changed and affected by the Gospel but entire villages as well. David and Kenda continue to be excited about the ministry they're a part of!
Pray for the Jeromes: Pray for 7 teams to be able to serve in the Philippines with the Jeromes in 2024, pray for the Filipinos who have accepted Christ to be discipled, pray for their children and grandchildren here in the states, pray for protection of family while they are away, pray for daughter-in-law Ashley to come to know Christ, pray for wisdom for future ministry

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
