“I have believed for a very long time that God wants to bless Yakima and that our city could be the light on hill. Under the leadership of Transform Yakima Together, I have learned about the stumbling blocks that keep us from being open to God’s plans for kingdom purpose. Discussing the steps to a unity that God can use to bring about His purposes for the valley has been so helpful. There is such power on Saturday mornings at the mission with all of us praying together.”

“I am so grateful for the ministry of Transform Yakima Together in our Yakima Valley. They truly have a vision of helping God’s people work together to help bring God’s life-changing Kingdom to our community. I am particularly appreciative of their emphasis on calling us all to prayer, without which revival and transformation won’t happen. Our monthly Pastor’s meeting is also an encouragement and helps us connect our congregations with what is happening in our valley.”

“One of my members who tutors at a local elementary school was called by the vice principal to help specifically mentor a boy who he said could be suicidal. My guy went in and said “I would love to mentor him, but I want to be clear – I have an agenda and that’s to see every student in this school meet Jesus. I will be discreet, but that is my ultimate goal.” The vice principal and principal said, “We will give you as many kids to mentor as you want, and you have TOTAL freedom – do whatever you need to do!” Praise God!”

“I am glad to be a part of Transform Yakima’s vision for our city.  From the  Saturday morning meetings, to the Monthly Pastor’s Luncheon, the focus on unity and pursuing God’s will is something I really appreciate.  Our church was glad to be a part of the 40 Days of Prayer and Fasting, and I was so glad of Transform Yakima’s support of that event. I also hope that the National Day of Prayer will continue to grow and be a place where all our churches can come together for the sake of our city.”

“Transform Yakima Together helped me to discover my gifts and where they fit into the Body of Christ and how they can be used to transform Yakima.”
