Fall Conference & Exit 316 in Slovakia
Pray …for us that the message of the Lord may spread rapidly (2Thes 3:1)
Fall Training Conference
Every September our entire team gathers together for five days of inspiration and training. This year our theme is “Baton, passing the life of Christ to the next generation.” Our teaching sessions and times of discussion will focus on how to increase our effectiveness in Disciple-making. This has been a central emphasis of JV for years, but we are asking God to show us how we can be still more fruitful in this area.
This conference is an important time of connection and recharging for the entire team. Pray for the speakers, that they will be powerfully used by the Lord, and for the times of fellowship and reflection, that God would lead us into greater intimacy with him.
Exit 316 in Slovakia
After two years of airing weekly broadcasts on national television in Czech we have a library of 80 episodes of Exit 316. This is a tremendous resource that we would like to use in a still broader way. Since neighboring Slovakia shares a very similar language, we are working to see if Slovak television would be willing to also broadcast the show. This would open the door to reach hundreds of thousands of young people with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Obviously a step like this will encounter the enemy’s opposition. Pray for the negotiations which are going on this month with officials in Slovak television. Pray also for endorsements from key religious and political leaders that could open the doors for this strategic project.
Most of all, pray that God would open doors for the gospel and protect the team as they stand in faith for this key opportunity.
