FAMILY LIFE at Desert Springs - a place where we can share the heart of our church family; prayers, praises and important announcements.  Be sure to check-in often to see what is happening.

Hard isn't it...watching the news each day?  Terrible earthquakes, diseases spreading, Christians are being persecuted, wars and rumors of wars, young girls are being kidnapped.  We think that it just must be the end times and Christ will return soon, but our thoughts are not His thoughts and our time is not His time.  So what are we commanded to do?  Pray. Do not lose hope. Remember who God is. His power. His justice. His kingdom. 

PRAY ...Not a simple answer but it's what our Savior commands us to do.  Let's commit to praying more than ever before and sharing our peace and hope with others who are living in fear.  

1 Corinthians 12:26 "We pray because we feel their pain."


Praying for Comfort, Health, Healing, Recovery & Wisdom


Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort  those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.  
2 Corinthians 1:3-4 ESV

DSC Supported Missionaries Prayer Requests


Need SPECIAL PRAYER for missionary Adam Hussey as he has been diagnosed with Dengue Fever.  His wife Alei is daughter of Benji & Cory Andres who are family members here at DSC.  We have a great love and appreciation for Adam, Alei and their sweet daughter Eliana who give all they have to be missionaries in the Philippines with Action International.

OUR PASTORS in GUINEA BISSAU need SPECIAL PRAYER COVERING!  Guinea Bissau borders Guinea, Liberia & Sierra Leone where the EBOLA VIRUS outbreak is critical.  Over 2000 people have died.  We faithfully and  humbly give monthly support to Pastor Marius, Pastor Fona, Pastor Hiskey and Pastor Tony and also to God's Word Church.  Our ties to each of them are precious and our support in prayer is critical.  We can not ignore our brothers & sisters in Christ who sacrifice so much for the Kingdom. PRAY FOR THEM throughout the day and when you awaken in the night. PRAY FOR PROTECTION.  




UKRIANE is crumbling, people fleeing as they have no supplies, no electricity, no medical care. We need to continue to lift our brothers and sisters in Christ who are in the Ukraine under attack. Our missionaries Jim & Annie Leonovich are in daily contact with the supported churches and Pastors.  It seems to be getting worse each day but GOD IS IN CONTROL.



Evangeline Byrnes-St. Clair is still in the Philippines continuing her aide to the church and city that needs rebuilding after the devasting typhoon.They need clothing for shildren and men, ceiling fans, chairs and donations.  Evangeline works tirelessly, always giving God the glory and thanking Him for the opportunity to serve Him in her country.  Pray for her strength, financial support and health.




Continued prayers are needed for one of our missionaries Junio Souza in Nepal.  Junio has been diagnosed with Hepatitis C and having to undergo very expensive treatments.  We pray for complete healing and their financial needs to be met so they continue to share the gospel in Nepal.
