Maintain

Dear Partner in the Gospel,

Paul’s call in Ephesians 4:3 includes a powerful word: “maintain.” Unity in the body of Christ is not something we manufacture—it is something we receive from the Spirit, who calls us to preserve it.

At Cadence International, we recognize that unity is both a gift and a stewardship. In our unique ministry context, where cultures, backgrounds, and deployments converge, our missionaries work daily to maintain the bond of peace that the Spirit has already forged.

Your generosity helps make this possible. Your support isn’t just funding programs; it’s preserving a gospel presence among military men, women, and families worldwide. Through your faithfulness, Cadence communities continue to be places of grace, healing, and unity.

Consider this testimony shared by an airman stationed at Spangdahlem Air Base, who attended The Hangar Hospitality House, run by Cadence staff, Joe and Jill Vincent:

“When I first got to Spangdahlem Air Base (in Germany), I was just living my own life, following my own will and desires. I wasn’t living for Christ. I came to The Hangar Hospitality House after I arrived, but I was doing my own thing, so I didn’t come much. Then I went through a lot of stuff in my life, and I was in a really low place. I thought to myself, there’s got to be something more than this.

So, I decided to come back to The Hangar again and really commit to praying, reading the Word, and diving into community. The transformation has been crazy from where I used to be. Jesus is everything to me, and He satisfies every desire. I don’t have to go to the clubs or the girls because He satisfies everything. I’m a living testimony, and now I want to go and tell everyone about Jesus. I’m so thankful for this community and for Joe and Jill.”

I thank God for your partnership in maintaining this good and holy work. May we continue, with humility and love, to preserve what God has so graciously given.

By His grace,
Dave Hutchings
