“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Matthew 16:16

Praise God for a new beginning after the summer break in the Dominican Republic.

Praise God for His abundant provision as Northern Plains classes prepare to begin this CBS year.

Please pray for the second phase of the CBS School Library launch with 12 new Christian schools and the third phase, training 100 instructors with a major child sponsorship ministry.

Please pray that the Lord will give His faithful Servants Teams in the North Carolina East Zone peace and trust in His constant grace and abiding presence as their classes start the study of Psalms.

Please pray that the Lord who instructs us to “let the little children come” will roll away the heavy stones for three classes in the New York Metro Zone so that their Next-Gen ministries can be resurrected.

Please pray newly formed Servants Teams bond together, operate in truth and love, and become of one mind and one Spirit, as they prepare to train their leaders for the coming class year.

Please pray for the couple being considered to serve on the Cambodia National Leadership Team – that they may be strengthened, guided by God’s wisdom, and empowered to lead with faith and humility.

Please pray for God’s sustaining grace for CBS leaders and participants who live in countries hostile to Christians.
