God has laid some amazing opportunities before Team Expansion through the Global Alliance Summit in California, starting this evening, November 12, and ending on Sunday, November 15.  Ask God for a great response from this event so that Team Expansion’s impact can be multiplied in the most needed areas of the globe.

In a region of North Africa, the local government is trying to make some Christians, both local and foreign, leave the country. Ask that the Gospel would spread rapidly in spite of these circumstances.

KW reported that he spent 9 months in prison for sharing the gospel and was charged with “political activities by the spreading of foreign religion.” Instead of dampening his fire, it emboldened him more to share the Good News without fear. Pray that KW will effectively plant a church that will grow and reproduce in his village and province of Southeast Asia.

Pray that our brothers and sisters in chains sing praises to their Christ – “let the redeemed of the LORD say so!”

When SF returned home after church multiplication movement training, he took time to prayer walk around his village, which has no believers other than his own family. He shared 45 Chronological Bible Stories with an interested person in his village. A few days later, the village headman paid him a visit and told him to leave the Christian faith or leave the village. If SF returned to spirit worship, he would be allowed to stay. As long as he is Christian, his family is refused registration documents. SF told the headman he has been a believer for 7-8 years and never had a problem before. He said he has rice planted in his fields and asked to be allowed to stay until after harvest. It was agreed. Pray that village leaders would change their minds and SF might be allowed to stay. Pray for SF and his unreached village and that SF might be able to plant a church there.

Team Leader Summit ended last night. Pray for team leaders and their teams to plant life-giving churches around the world where currently there are none. Pray that these churches thrive with worship, praise, and adoration of the Living God and His resurrected Son.

Rejoice in God’s goodness to plan and implement Team Leader Summit November 3-6. Ask God to bless this time on campus to enable, equip, and empower team leaders for effectiveness in returning to various fields among the least reached peoples of the world.

Give thanks for opportunities to serve team leaders from around the world during Team Leader Summit at Team Expansion’s Emerald Hills campus. Thank God for occasions to share, worship, and pray together. Pray for team leaders and their families to be encouraged and built up to be strong beacons for Jesus Christ.

Praise God for aligning plans for Team Leader Summit with His plans. Pray that His Spirit enables us to sustain, oversee, encourage, and coach leaders and their teams to establish indigenous Biblical church/disciple making movements among unreached peoples of the world.

Team Expansion is hosting for our workers a Team Leader Summit Nov 3-7. Give thanks to God for orchestrating this event for all our team leaders and their families, for orchestrating funds, travel and housing for all attending, for sorting out speakers and presenters, meals and childcare, and every detail it takes to make this event happen.
