Pray that local missionaries will be encouraged as they fellowship together. Nearly 200 ministry workers from two regions recently participated in a local ministry’s Leadership Development Program in which they worked in small groups to learn ways to lead Bible study participants into ministry work. “During the small group discussions, the participants were reminded that they should be able to perpetuate a reproducible ministry,” the ministry leader said. “They discussed the step-by-step process on how to help people become workers of the Lord Jesus.” Donations support ministry events such as this.

“Then Judas and Silas, both being prophets, spoke at length to the believers, encouraging and strengthening their faith.” (Acts 15:32)
