Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,  I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13-14

Praise God for the South Asia Regional Collaborators that provide tremendous support for the CBS ministry. Please pray for the opportunity for more leaders to be trained and establish additional classes.

Praise God for answering several prayer requests for healing of serious medical concerns in the Philly Metro Zone. Please pray with this Zone for a greater CBS presence in the New Jersey shore area.

Praise God for His sustaining Holy Spirit power that has enabled many Servants Team leaders in the Southeast Texas and Southern Louisiana Zone to persevere and continue to serve even while facing serious health issues and the passing of loved ones.

Praise God for His faithful Teaching Directors in the South Carolina Zone who share His Word each week. Please pray that they will be strongly encouraged by the Holy Spirit and filled with His joy as they attend a Teaching Director Gathering in January.

Please pray that the upcoming Children & Youth training in an undisclosed country in the Latin America & the Caribbean Region will be well attended. Pray for God’s direction as leaders finalize details for this event.

Please pray that God would enlarge the territory in the New England & Upstate New York Zone and that the opportunity to share His Word would increase. Please pray that participants and leaders in this Zone will invite friends, family, and neighbors to classes so communities will be transformed by God’s Word.

Please pray for all CBS class leaders and participants around the world to experience an intimate relationship with the Savior of the world, Who came to save and restore each of us and may we all be filled with joy as we celebrate His coming.

Please pray that God would continue to provide for the needs of classes in the Southern California Zone as they begin to welcome their seasonal participants.

Please pray for a CBS leader in an undisclosed country in the Middle East/North Africa Region as they plan a retreat for CBS leaders in January. Pray for God’s favour, open doors and that the event will bring encouragement to the attendees.

Please pray for King Jesus to embolden CBS leaders and participants to continue to proclaim the good news of His kingdom in the face of opposition.
