God Bless your Church and My Mexico Lindo y Querido.

Hi Pastor Warren this is a great site you have.Recently I attended a seminar of Power Driven Church conducted by GELC Ranchi (India).I had the opportunity to meet REv OlavGraia and Rev Eivind from Norway.It was amazingly an astounding experience to know about Purpose Driven Church and Saddleback Ministry.Kudos to both of them.I am looking forward to more such seminars.Maybe someday I will have the opportunity to meet you.

Thank you once again for a wonderful ministry and a wonderful site.I just want to say you are providential for all who want to be saved.

Thank You

Dear Pastor Warren,

I'm so blessed to find a site like this. I'm a Christian here in the Philippines who wants to grow in Christ and share

the Gospel of Salvation. I want to know more about our faith, and be a pastor someday, in which I keep on praying

if God is willing.

I'm saving my school allowance to purchase your book, Purpose Driven Life, and hoping to do so before this month end.

Please pray for me and for my family, and for our planned campus ministry in our school.

God bless you and more power!

Yours in Christ,

Poliphilo

Great Commandment, Great Commission

Curtis B. Preston — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 04:57:55 GMT

In a couple of Dr. Warren's books and on this website as well he has referred to the Great Commission and Great Commandment. Was this a message he gave on this subject, or what exactly? Can anyone direct me that message? It sounds enlightening and helpful. Thanks in advance for any help.

Hey Rick, I wrote this on my tweed but I don't know if you can see it as you are not following me: "the_grambo@RickWarren Not a "pastor" or "plantor" but voluntary youth leader and sometimes preacher in my church. Does that count, too? ;)" Greetings from Germany, Sascha PS: conversation doesn't work - therefore as a comment

Upcoming launching of a new Purpose Driven Church in Mexico City

Eduardo_Herrera — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 05:55:55 GMT

Dear Pastor Rick,

My name is Eduardo Herrera, from Mexico City. I praise God for your life and great ministry, equipping us with resources to plant a Purpose Driven Church. God led me to your materials earlier this year, as I was being confirmed by Him to become a Pastor and start up a new Church. We will have our first celebration meeting on August 23rd, 2009. Our work plan, our teaching materials, small groups resources and even kid's program have been prepared having on mind PD Bible principles. The Church's name will be Monte Ararat (Mount Ararat), because we expect that in every heart in our community, an altar to God will be built. I will very much appreciate that you and all the Pastors of this great network, reading this message, keep us in your prayers. Your advise and support through your resources will definitely be of great help for my effectiveness in ministry. I look forward to meeting you in person soon. Thanks for everything.

Una Iglesia con Propósito

josiansanchez — Sat, 01 Aug 2009 09:50:47 GMT

Good Morning Rick, I know how time is a big factor for you and I'm trying to get something going here in Puerto Rico with the Purpose Driven Church. We became a Purpose Driving in 2004 after the Lord guide me to your book The Purpose Driving Church. I purchase the C.L.A.S.S 101-401 and translated them into Spanish. The rest is history.

I try to contact the Hispanic Ministry. If you are interested on me starting something in Puerto Rico, or if you got a person as point of contact please let me know. What PD has done for our church is wonderful and we want to help others in becoming one.

Here to serve,

Pastor Josian Sanchez

Pastor from Turkey

Lale Gokyigit — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 13:09:51 GMT

Dear Pastor Rick Warren,

We are so grateful for your wonderful ministry. I am the pastor of the Mujde Church in Istanbul. We have been holding Sunday worship in a small apartment flat but the building is so torn down and dirty it has become a negative factor in trying to invite guests to church. We are now looking for a new place to meet on Sunday with affordable rent and which new commers will find appealing. The old building of the American Counsolate is now empty because the American Counsolate has moved to a newer and better facility. We could turn it into a church building if we only had permission. While dreaming about this, a missionary who planted our church said “Why don’t we write to Rick Warren? He might have the ability to get us such a permission...!”

We could provide any references required about our church. We have the same statement of faith as yours and are well known by other respected evangelical churches and missionary organizations in Turkey.

The building is empty when it could be filled with those we are trying to share the gospel! We have found that for Turks to feel comfortable the building they first come into is important. When we invite them into a torn down building it makes them more nervous. But a clean, safe looking building has a positive effect on those who are nervous about comming to church for the first time. We have seen examples of this again and again.

You would be doing the Lord such a tremendous, history changing service if you could help us in this area.

With deepest love and respect,

Pastor Lale Gökyiğit
