Full Gospel Men’s Prayer Breakfast @ Beltrami Electric Conference Room
Jan 4 @ 8:00 AM

The Bemidji Full Gospel Men’s Prayer Breakfast will be held Saturday, January 4 in the Beltrami Electric Conference Room (4111 Technology Dr NW). Starting at 8am, there will be a light breakfast followed by a time of music and the sharing of testimony. This month’s featured speaker is Jeyshua Bush.

Jeyshua’s bio:

My name is Jeyshua Bush, I am 27 years old and a lover of Jesus. I have 3 siblings, a brother-in-law and a niece who is almost 2. We have
lived in Bemidji my entire life. My parents brought us to church, revival meetings, Bible studies and our family has been involved with ministry as long as I can remember. I think I was around 5 when I asked Jesus into my heart.

In the past few years, I have helped with singing, leading worship, and taking the lead at various college age ministry groups. I also lead worship at my church. Currently I am working at Cass Lake Elementary as a para educator in a Sped room. I am thankful to have a Christian principal who encourages the staff to share God’s light and love with the students.

Outside of work I enjoy hanging with my family, being outside, playing various sports and chilling with my friends. I also enjoy Bible studies. Currently I am leading a men’s Bible study with mostly young adults attending. I also enjoy coordinating/organizing events. One of my favorites was the 50-hour worship tent in Bemidji. My goal is to continue event coordinating, raising up leaders in Christ, and hopefully igniting a spark that spreads to the world.
