Living a life of faith

I recently moved from the town where I came to faith in the WELS church, literally across the street, to a location where the nearest WELS church is about an hour and a half away. Although there are a lot of churches around (almost literally one on every corner), there are none that we are in fellowship with. I've felt myself becoming terribly lonely and disheartened by the prospect of never again experiencing fellowship with any neighbors or people in my community. So much so that I've even caught myself losing my desire to witness to "these heathens and false teachers," and I know that emotion is sinful because the first thing that comes to mind when I hold the light of Scripture to my own heart is Jonah trying to evade God's command to witness to Ninevah. Since the logistics of traveling currently preclude getting to the WELS church much more than once per month, what are the best examples from Scripture for a lay-person to live "missionally" and continue to bear witness and fulfill the Great Commission?

Here are a few biblical examples that come to mind: the unnamed Israelite girl in 2 Kings 5, Daniel (chapter 6), Nehemiah, the healing of the demon-possessed man (Luke 8:26-39), Lydia (Acts 16:11-15) and the heroes of faith chapter of the Bible (Hebrews 11).

If the distance from your home to your congregation is a barrier to more frequent participation in worship services, do speak to your pastor. He can direct you to many resources that can supplement your devotional life. God bless you with the strength to let your light of faith shine brightly in your life.
