As we reflect on 2025, our hearts are full of gratitude, awe, and deep reverence. This year has been nothing short of a divine unfolding — a year where we witnessed God move through prayer, missions, ministry, unity, celebration, and miracles. We stepped out in faith again and again…and God met us every single time.
January — Hearing Heaven Clearly
We began the year with 21 days of fasting and prayer, tuning our hearts to actively hear the voice of God. Through visions and dreams, He spoke direction, encouragement, and boldness for the year ahead. It set the tone for everything that followed — consecrated, surrendered, and expectant.
March — A Move in Medan
Our team spent 10 days in Medan, Indonesia, ministering to local churches and strengthening the body of Christ. What began as simple obedience turned into a powerful launching of a discipleship movement — multiplying leaders, families, and communities transformed by the gospel.

May — Nights of Hope at The Monument
Together with our partners from Awakening Hope Ministries and an incredible team from Minnesota, we gathered for two Nights of Hope at The Monument. Worship filled the atmosphere, and hope filled hearts as Jesus reminded us that He alone is the Light in every darkness.

June — Pray Together National Gathering
The annual Pray Together event brought believers from across the nation to build an altar of worship and intercession. We remain so grateful for our friends at Elim Arrival in Iowa, whose sacrificial leadership helped co-labor for His Kingdom. God united hearts and stirred revival once again.

July — A Joyful Union
We celebrated with great joy the marriage of Aaron and Alexa Joseph — a beautiful display of God’s love uniting families and friends from across the world. It was a month filled with thanksgiving, honor, and worship for what God has brought together.

August — 21 Days of Fast & Prayer Again
There was so much that we experienced by this point in the year. So it was time to rest in Jesus's presence. Our team went into 21 days of actively hearing God's voice, gathering daily for worship, prayer, devotion and partaking in communion in the sanctuary.

October — Prayer at the South Dakota Capitol
At the Pierre Capitol, we gathered believers and leaders to pray for our state — that every decision made would be centered on Christ. We worshipped, declared the blood of Jesus over the land, and partnered with God’s heart for South Dakota.

November — Back to the Nations
God called us back to Medan for another mission — hosting healing crusades, discipleship trainings, and strengthening the growing movement we witnessed earlier in the year. Momentum continued to build as people encountered Jesus, received healing, and stepped boldly into their callings.

A Home of Thanksgiving
Our Annual Thanksgiving Gathering once again became a place of belonging — where friends and newcomers alike experienced the love of Jesus and the beauty of true community.

December — Christ at the Center
We wrapped the year celebrating Christmas with disciples, friends, and family — honoring the King of Kings who made all of this possible.

50 Nights of Miracles
Week after week, every Saturday at 6:30pm, we gathered with one purpose — to host the presence of Jesus.
50 nights. 50+ miracles. 50+ encounters.
His presence was tangible, His faithfulness undeniable. All He needed was our yes — and He did the impossible.

And if you made this far, Bishop Joseph & Team completed 10 years of faithful servanthood, stewardship and ministry in the Black Hills

Looking Ahead
This year, every mission, gathering, prayer meeting, and testimony has been a God-given opportunity to serve as vessels for His Kingdom. Seeds have been planted — and many have already sprouted into transformed lives and vibrant discipleship.
We could not have done any of this without the team, partners, and supporters God has divinely provided.
All glory to God.
Our Prayer for the New Year
“Lord, we will not move unless Your presence goes with us.
Let every person we encounter experience You.”
As we step into a new year, we stand ready — surrendered, listening, and full of faith for greater things.
Here’s to more miracles, more salvations, more nations, more harvest
— until the whole world has heard the Gospel.
