Bringing Forth the Mission
Apostle Paul’s life on Earth is an inspiring story of a man who transformed from hunting down Christians for persecution to one who loved Christ. His devotion to the mission given to him by Christ is testament to his undeniable and unwavering love for Christ. Paul was eventually thrown in jail by the Roman Empire and later beheaded as punishment for leading people to Christ.
However, the mission of ApostlePaul.Life is not about Paul the person, it is about bringing forth the mission given to Paul after his transformation. And as Paul himself wrote in the book of Romans (15:21) regarding his purpose, it was to preach the gospel:
To whom He was not announced, they shall see; And those who have not heard shall understand.
So who am I? My name is Bob Yacobucci and I organized an event called Faith Festival at a local ballpark in 2007. This mission given to me by God is a wonderful story of how mountains were torn down by God.
I recall when the Faith Festival was all set up, and just prior to opening, I was standing at the entrance gate to the ballpark and I said to God, “I did as you called me to do, it is now up to you to call the people” and God called. The event drew dozens of diverse Christian churches and organizations to set up booths at the event to showcase their individual missions. Over 2,500 people came together in one place with music along with a diverse set of churches and individuals.
Soon ApostlePaul.Life will be organizing events similar to Faith Festival that will unite churches in a geographic area to join at a neutral welcoming location. Media will be used to reach out to those who are not familiar with Christ and invite them to the event.
If you are a church, individual Christian, or if you are someone who is not familiar with Christ and you want to know what it means to be in peace with Christ, please provide your contact info so we may keep you informed of upcoming events.
