International Focus

Years before this church was formed, the nations were in the hearts of a band of friends who longed to be used to do great exploits to advance the Kingdom of God around the world. During our beginning stages of starting the church, the Lord was faithful to encourage us to maintain our dual focus on the local church while continuing to take teams to the nations. Because Johnny’s younger years were spent in Peru, that is the primary international focus we have had, but we have also hosted teams (from a few up to 40 people) on short term mission trips to many nations. We have traveled to Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Honduras, Mexico, France, Switzerland, England, and Peru. We have a desire and direction from the Lord, in His time, to set up many bases throughout the nations for the purpose of evangelism, encouraging and equipping believers and leaders, and establishing orphanages that will raise the last generations to walk in the fullness of God’s power and His glory as the issues of the world grow darker. We also believe that God has stirred His heart for the nations in many American Christians and we intend to continue making opportunities available for those “ordinary” men and women of God who desire to be used for great things!
God has amazed us with His favor when we travel internationally….we have seen signs, wonders, and miracles of all kinds….had many opportunities to influence cities, regions, and those in governmental positions…experienced intense grace for prophetic gifts to flow…and participated in intercession that has produced great fruit. We’ve had so many invitations that we need more people to send! Each trip usually has a specific focus and direction, but most are 7 to 10 days long and include many opportunities for the team. Whether you speak the language or not, you’ll be used as part of the ministry team to lay hands on those wanting prayer at the end of services, to speak prophetically over the city, pastors and leaders, and church congregations, and to intercede for that nation. We also like to make time for a little sight seeing and shopping when possible and we try to stay in nice, but reasonably priced accommodations.

So, if this stirs your heart to travel with us (whether you attend Daystar or somewhere else), then you’re invited! We usually announce mission trip dates in our services as well as on our Friends of Daystar email list. You can also call the church office at 770-452-7113 for more information about upcoming trips. If you hear of a specific trip you’d like to go on, just let us know and you’ll be sent an application with specific details about it. So, get your passport ready and let’s go!
