USC

USC begins classes Monday August 25. Please pray that:

  1. Our students would be full of joy and grace, shining brightly at our campus gospel table
  2. We would continue to make solid connections with seeking students, especially freshmen.
  3. The Lord would bless the speaking at our campus ministry meeting.
  4. Many new students could be bridged to the homes of the saints.

Southern California Young People

The 2014 Junior High Gospel Perfecting Conference and the Southern California Young Peoples Blending Meeting, are Saturday, August 30th in Arcadia.

Internet

Ask the Lord to bring seekers to internet sites which are rich in life and truth, and to cause these seekers to interact with these web sites so that continuing fellowship may develop.

Albania

Tirana is the capital of Albania. There are 9 saints and 2 children meeting together. David and Elda Chang (in L.A. in past years), who migrated here with their two girls, opened an English pre-school last year (http://tiranaschool.org). And the Lord has been using the school in many ways. Please pray:

  • that preparation for the new year, which begins September 1, would go smoothly;
  • for more students to take the place of those who are older or who moved away;
  • for the Lord to strengthen and encourage the saints here!

Düsseldorf, Germany

The church life began in Düsseldorf in 2008 with 12 saints through a migration. Since then the church has grown under the Lord’s blessing through both increase and migration. The attendance in the Lord’s Day meeting now reaches up to 40 and the church has outgrown its current rented meeting rooms. A property has recently become available for purchase which could serve as a meeting hall for the church as well as a location for the blending of the saints in the region. We in Düsseldorf feel very good about this purchase.

If you desire to help, you may give to the church designated for Düsseldorf meeting hall.

Sri Lanka

September 1 to 14 there will be a two-week intensified propagation in Colombo, the capital of Sri Lanka, a city where there is a local church.
