COFFEE COAST

We thank you for lifting up our Indonesian brothers and sistes who have laboring in the harvest fields this past month. In the most recent news, we have learned that several couples and a single young man have come to faith and are ready to follow the L*rd in believers' b*ptism. They are being welcomed into the family by a house fell*wship in their area and have begun the discipleship process to nurture them in their new faith.

Pray that God's will be done and His Kingdom come in these new believers. Pray;

  1. That God will do His work to transform their hearts and minds for their benefit and His purposes.

  2. That God will protect them from the evil one and the persecution that will surely come as a result of placing their faith in our Savior and following with believers' b*ptism.

  3. Pray that the persecution will serve to strengthen their resolve and push them and the other believers deeper into the embrace of their Lord.

  4. Pray for our team and the elders of the house fell*wships who will be discipling them and equipping them for the Lord's work.


Pray also for our team as they continue to go out to share the Gospel in the local cafe eateries. Pray that;

  1. God's Spirit goes before them to prepare the hearts and minds of those who will hear their witness.

  2. God's Spirit will bring to their minds all that our Savior has given them to share.

  3. God will protect their witnessing times from interuptions and distractions that the evil one would want to sow among them!


DISTANT SHORES TEAM PREPARATIONS;

Please be praying for out teams that are busy preparing and developing the curriculum for our upcoming Marriage retreats scheduled for Jan and Feb of next year 2027. We praise the Lord because He has solidified the teams and brought to us those who have been prepared and recently certified in Marriage counseling for such a time as this!

In addition, He has given to us precious portions of His Word to become the foundation of our curriculum to be used in Tanzania and portions of our sessions in Indonesia.

Pray that God will equip and inspire us as we;

  1. Continue to develop the library of stories from His Word to fill out our curriculum.

  2. Develop the retreat schedules and teaching methodologies both in Indonesia and Tanzania.

  3. Nail down the logistics of; internation tickets, local in-country transportation, retreat accomodations, food, translators in Tanzania, support raising, etc..
