A multiplication of churches happens when Christians from one body establish a new church and the believers in the new church go out and plant another generation of churches, usually of new believers with whom they have shared the Gospel. This reproduction continues until there are many generations of churches and entire regions or people groups are reached with the Gospel. Pray that this would happen among the 45+ fields in which Team Expansion workers are laboring.

2016-02-29: Lord of the Harvest.
Give thanks to the Lord of the Harvest for raising up more workers. Thank God for the candidates who are attending Launch through March 12. Ask that this training enables new recruits to learn about Team Expansion and what is needed to get to the field to which God is calling them.
2016-02-28: Wisdom, Insight, and Discernment.
Pray that the Leadership Team at International Services might have wisdom, insight, and discernment to follow God’s steps and keep Team Expansion on task in reaching the unreached peoples of the world.
2016-02-27: Leadership Task Force Retreat.
Pray for plans for the Leadership Task Force retreat coming up in March. Every year the LTF comes to Louisville, KY for a weekend of worship and prayer, reviewing the past year, and looking forward to the future. Pray that the retreat is productive for the LTF and effective in reaching more people who haven’t heard the Gospel.
2016-02-26: Give Thanks to God.

2016-02-25: Unreached People Groups.
Pray that the 6,500+ remaining unreached people groups totaling over two billion unreached people will be reached with the Gospel. Ask the Lord of the harvest to raise up workers for the harvest fields.
2016-02-24: Amazing Movements of God.
While amazing movements of God have been and are being ignited and spreading like crazy over the world, we are still seeking to do our part to get the fire started in BH and Eastern Europe. Pray for revival among small local churches and for breakthroughs among the lost that can only be attributed to the hand of Almighty God, whose word is like a hammer and fire. Pray for breakthroughs in 2016.
2016-02-23: Ask God.
Ask God to identify apprentices to participate in discipleship training (D-Course) and move them to a community in Louisville, KY (Team Expansion’s home base) to have a cross-cultural immersion experience that will train apprentices to love their neighbors, make healthy disciples, and form simple, multiplying churches.
2016-02-22: East Asia.
One team in East Asia is using English classes, community sports projects and intentional relationships to share the Gospel among unreached groups. They are seeing God move in the lives and hearts of those hardened by years of doubt. Ask God to raise up teammates that are needed to join them in this ministry.
