2026 June Semiannual Training
The Semiannual Training is taking place this week, June 29 to July 4, in Anaheim and by webcast in Los Angeles and around the world. The subject is “The Believers (1).”
Pray for the release of the Lord’s word to meet His present need for the building up of His Body and the preparation of His Bride. May our vessel be open and empty to receive and digest His up-to-date speaking. Pray that through this training the Triune God will operate more in us to accomplish His will, fulfill His purpose, and satisfy the desire of His heart.
FTTA and FTTA-MA
Last weekend, 85 trainees graduated from the FTTA and 31 from the FTTA-MA. Please continue to pray for all these ones to follow the Lamb wherever He may go. Videos of the graduation meetings are available for a limited time at ftta.org and ftta.org/MA, respectively.
The classes of the Middle-age Full-time Training in Anaheim are given in English, Chinese, Korean and Spanish. It is hoped that many saints, especially those between the ages of 35 and 65, will seize this opportunity to be perfected. Let us petition the Lord to release many more saints, especially more English-speaking saints, before the August 18 deadline to redeem the time and give themselves for this.
LA Family Bible Camp and Truth School Follow-up
Thank you, saints, for your prayers! Our recent LA Family Bible Camp and Truth School was full of blending and the enjoyment of the Lord. This year the topic for the families was “Made Known” (Psalm 48:3); for the young people it was “The Two Spirits” (John 3:6, 4:24; Rom. 8:16). Please continue to pray:
- For the Lord to bless all the children, young people, and families in their going on with Him.
- That our children be impressed that God has made Himself known in creation, in the Bible, and in Jesus, and respond by opening their eyes, opening their Bibles, and opening their mouths to talk to Him.
- That our young people exercise their spirits regularly to touch the all-inclusive Spirit.
2026 FIFA World Cup Gospel Outreach
“The disciples of the Lord have the real presence of the Triune God as their exceeding joy to make them persons who are ‘Jesusly human,’ those who are sweet, charming, and attractive to those whom they contact, without any deception or hypocrisy.” (2026 June Semiannual Training, Key Statement 1)
Since June 11, saints from LA and nearby localities are going out into the communities to distribute Bibles and tracts at various World Cup-related gatherings. Our focus has not just been handing out Bibles, but having quality conversations with people in which we can feed them with at least one footnote. Many people have indicated a desire for further contact; we are doing our best to connect with them right away for fellowship. May the Lord anoint the follow-up and gain many of these ones for His purpose!
Please continue to pray:
- For the Lord’s word to run and be glorified (2 Thes. 3:1) and to grow mightily and prevail (Acts 19:20).
- For the saints to be filled with the Holy Spirit to speak the word of God with boldness (Acts 4:31) to all kinds of people.
- For more grace-filled conversations (Col. 4:6) and remaining fruit (John 15:16).
