We believe God has called us to 'Go' start new churches - the most strategic means by which our neighbors are led to Christ both across the street and around the world.

Church Planting - Marshfield

Faith Fellowship helped launch Hub Life Church - a new church plant right here in downtown Marshfield which began meeting for public worship in the fall 2019!! Check out Hub Life on Facebook @ facebook.com/HubLifeChurch or email @ hublifec@gmail.com.

God Happenings - the Schifelbine’s
church planting journey - July 2025

God Lights

1. James Hennes 30 years old was baptized Sunday May 18th. He will be preaching his first Sunday sermon on August 3rd. Please pray for him.

2. Missions both locally, globally and to the ends of the earth continues to be a key focus of our church. With our new missions leader in place our team continues to be very strong. Thanks, Sandy, for the new missions board and ways to pray for our missionaries.

3. New people jumping in to serve the church. God is at work in one specific way through a new couple in our church. This couple makes scripture rocks that say whatever God puts on their heart to say. We will hand them out during our outreach to our community. We are opening our church during Hub City Days; which is an event where up to 10,000 people attend. We we looking forward to people stopping in for prayer and to use the restroom.

4. We have had the opportunity to partner with the opening of First Choice Pregnancy resource center in our community; a Christ-centered resource center to bring resources and life to their clients. We had people from our church on a committee that put together and planned the welcome to Marshfield event for this mission.

5. I had the privilege of leading someone to Jesus Christ. This person was not expecting but was ready to accept and their life has been changed for all eternity.

Prayer

1. For future church Elders and Board. Pray for Men who are faithful, committed and would take this next step of faith in their journey.

2. Hub City Days Outreach on Saturday July 26, 2025.

3. For future members, salvations and baptisms.

Family

Our oldest son graduated! He is heading to UW-La Crosse to study biology, he desires to work in the medical field.

Our daughter Kara works and just returned from Forest Springs a Christian camp.

Matai is 13 now and is learning how to do more and more to help the family.

My wife Jen will transition to being a substitute teacher again this fall unless God steers her differently.

For me pray that I can continue to raise up people to lead. That I do not grow weary in doing good, knowing that at the proper time the harvest will come. Thank you for prayer, lunches, emails and all your personal support for my family and I through this church planting journey. Thank you to each of you for each of you has had some kind of impact on us during this calling to Marshfield. All for the name of Jesus!!
