July Semiannual Training
The Semiannual Training on the Crystallization-study of the Book of Numbers is taking place this week in Anaheim and by video in our five halls in Los Angeles. Please ask the Lord to flow out from the speaking brothers. Also ask the Lord to cause all trainees to give heed to the word so that Christ as the morning star may rise in their hearts day by day. May they diligently pursue the growth and maturity in life required for the formation of God’s army to protect God’s testimony and fight for His move on earth.
Los Angeles Young People
This summer, from August 10 to 17, our young people will have a special camp called Pursue 2019. Registration is now open for junior high and high school students, as well as serving ones. Please pray that many of the young people would give this time to the Lord and that their hearts would be open for the Lord to gain them in their teenage years.
Oak Glen
Oak Glen is our SoCal blending camp, not only for young people but for all ages to use—for conferences, churches, districts, and groups. However, the loan has not yet been fully paid off. To pay the remaining loan and release funds for planned improvements, it is suggested that each giving unit pledge $50 per month through the end of next year. Donations may be given to the church in LA, designated for ‘Oak Glen,’ or at http://socalblendingcenter.org.
North America College Training
Saints and churches are continuing to persevere in prayer for the upcoming NACT so that the Holy Spirit may move in an unprecedented way in this generation of college saints. To join the forty days of dedicated prayer (from June 11 to June 20, the last day of the training), please visit these websites:

Ethiopia College Training
Since last October’s ITERO in Addis Ababa, the Lord has opened many doors in the universities in Ethiopia. In December, an invitation to speak to a group of 50 seeking students in the southwest resulted in the word spreading to other universities and a one-week training attended by 500 students. These ones then went back to their respective campuses and shared what they heard with their friends. Many expressed their desire for a longer time of training during the summer.
After much prayer and consideration, there will be a one-week training in three locations this July and August. A total of 2,300 college students from over 25 universities are registered. These students are so eager and full of anticipation. They are ready to pay any price to attend despite the false accusations and slanderous talk they hear against us. Hallelujah!
Please pray for this time and consider giving to support the cost of training such a large number. (The average expense is $105 per person for one week.) Gifts may be given to the church in LA designated for ‘Ethiopia College Training.’ Through His move in the Body, may the Lord fully gain this group of college students for His testimony and advancement in Africa!
