Seattle and Portland

Romans 10:14–15 asks how people can believe without hearing, and how they can hear without a preacher? This is the original Operation X. The ministry went into the heart of godless areas in the PNW. Stops included the streets of Seattle and Portland, and the place formerly known as Chaz.

Oregon

Building on our first mission, a small group of men went to the campuses of the University of Oregon and Oregon State, places with high concentrations of atheists and agnostics. We also went into the streets of Corvallis, Eugene, and Portland. For His glory!
