Pure Christ Ministries was founded by Blake Beavers, a member of the Highland Country Fellowship family, with a mission to equip local churches throughout Latin America to bring hope and transformation to individuals facing some of life’s most difficult challenges, including poverty, addiction, abuse, trafficking, and exploitation.

Through gospel-centered discipleship and practical vocational training, local churches are empowered to help people encounter Christ while also developing the skills and opportunities needed to build healthy, sustainable futures for themselves and their families.

By partnering with pastors and church leaders, Pure Christ Ministries seeks to foster lasting change through spiritual growth, community support, and vocational development. As lives are transformed by the gospel, families are strengthened, churches are encouraged, and communities are impacted for the glory of God.

The ministry is committed to seeing local churches become centers of hope and restoration, demonstrating the love of Christ in both word and action.

Please join us in praying for Blake, Pure Christ Ministries, the pastors and leaders they serve, and the communities throughout Latin America that are being reached with the hope, healing, and truth of Jesus Christ.

At Highland Country Fellowship, we believe the church is called to be the body of Christ - bearing one another’s burdens, praying for one another, encouraging one another, and serving one another in times of need.

One of the ways we live out that calling is through our Member Care Ministry, led by Member Care Coordinator Ben Pegues. Ben brings years of ministry experience to this role, including more than 18 years as a hospice chaplain, as well as degrees from Dallas Baptist University and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.

Member Care ministry is carried out through three primary teams:

• Prayer Team – Sends out weekly prayer requests and faithfully lifts up the needs of our church family throughout the week.

• Meals Team – Provides meals for individuals and families experiencing illness, hospitalization, recovery, or other challenging circumstances.

• Visitation Team – Offers personal support, encouragement, and prayer through visits during difficult seasons such as hospitalization, loss, or serious health concerns.

If you would like to request care or learn more about serving on one of the Member Care teams, visit the Member Care & Prayer section of our website or contact Ben Pegues at (214) 843-6278.
