Prayer, Week of June 16
The Kingdom and the Church
"Jesus went about in all of Galilee, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom." (Matt. 4:23)
"The kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit." (Rom. 14:17)
"I John, your brother and fellow partaker in the tribulation and kingdom and endurance in Jesus." (Rev. 1:9)
The Bible first presents the kingdom and thereafter presents the church; the presence of the kingdom produces the church. The genuine church is the kingdom of God in this age; today the believers live the kingdom life in the church. We are in the kingdom in reality only when we live, walk, and have our being in the spirit, not in our natural man. The purpose of the vital groups in the church life is to live the kingdom life—the God-man life. (The Development of the Kingdom of God, msg. 3, I, II, II.E, I.D)
Lord, lift up our daily life for our church life. Save us from any kind of emptiness or passivity.

Thursday, June 20, 7:30-9:30 pm at Hall 5 (522 S Sepulveda, #203; Los Angeles 90049)

Prayer, Week of June 9
Pursue, Gain, Experience, Magnify the Unlimited Christ
"I know that for me this will turn out to salvation through your petition and the bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ, according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I will be put to shame, but with all boldness, as always, even now Christ will be magnified in my body, whether through life or through death. For to me, to live is Christ." (Phil. 1:19-21a)
To magnify Christ is to express Christ without limitation; it is to show the whole universe that the very Christ by whom we live is unlimited. (The Experience of Christ, msg. 1, I.C)
We have knowledge but we must pursue Christ to gain more of Him and experience Him more. He is unlimited, unsearchably rich, but our experience and resulting magnification of Him is too small. Lord, save us from emptiness; fill us with the experience and enjoyment of Christ in our daily living. "Draw me, we will run after You" (SS 1:4a).
Living the Hidden Life of Our Father
"When you pray, enter into your private room, and shut your door and pray to your Father who is in secret; and your Father who sees in secret will repay you." (Matt. 6:6)
"Surely You are a God who hides Himself, O God of Israel, the Savior." (Isa. 45:15)
The principle of the kingdom people is that they live a hidden life. The kingdom people, who live in an emptied and humbled spirit and walk in a pure and single heart under the heavenly ruling of the kingdom, are not allowed to do anything in the flesh for the praise of men but must do all things in the spirit for the pleasing of their heavenly Father. We can never practice living a hidden life in secret in our natural life; if we are serious about being the kingdom people, we must learn to live by the hidden life of our Father. (The Development of the Kingdom of God, msg 2, II., II.B, I)
Lord, bring us into many little experiences of living a hidden life and having times with the Father in secret!
North America College Training
We believe that forty days of persevering prayer in one accord will result in an unprecedented move of the Holy Spirit in this generation of college saints during the upcoming NACT. We ask that you join us in earnest and persistent intercession on behalf of the NACT this year. Specifically, we hope to have forty days (June 11—July 20, the last day of the training) of dedicated prayer on the part of the churches and the saints in the following five general directions:
- To fully gain a new generation of college-age saints for God's eternal purpose of Christ and the church—Psa. 24:6; Eph. 1:9-10
- To bind the strong man Satan and to plunder his house of young vessels chosen by the Lord for His use—Matt. 12:29; 2 Tim. 2:21
- To prepare the hearts, strengthen the spirits, and preserve the health of the saints so that they can partake of the training—Eph. 3:16-17; 1 Thes. 5:23
- To grant the serving saints the love, faith, grace, wisdom, energy, and endurance to minister to the young people—1 Thes. 1:3; 1 Tim. 2:1
- To rule over all things in the outward environment (weather, transportation, food and lodging, safety) related to the training—Rom. 8:28; Eph. 1:22

Ministry Digest
Issue 1 is out in English and Chinese; available copies have been distributed. Issue 1 in Korean and Spanish will be published in September, issue 2 for all languages in October. The purpose of the Ministry Digest is 1) to gradually get us into into the riches of the collected works of Witness Lee, and 2) to bring churches and saints into a regular habit of reading the ministry. You may subscribe at http://md.lsm.org.
Oak Glen
At the end of the SoCal Blending we heard an update on Oak Glen. This is our SoCal conference center, not only for young people but for all ages—for conferences, churches, districts, and groups to use.
The remaining loan is $372,000 but we have paid down the loan (to reduce interest costs) by using $2 million from the sale of Engedi that was intended for improvements at Oak Glen. To pay the remaining loan and release funds for the planned improvements, it is suggested that each giving unit pledge $50 per month through the end of next year.
Donations may be to the church, designated for Oak Glen, or at http://socalblendingcenter.org; this website will soon have the slides shown at the SoCal Blending.
Bibles for America
The BfA Blog in Spanish has been relaunched at http://blog-es.biblesforamerica.org. The format has been redesigned to make the content more accessible and readable. In the past, the posts have been read by audiences in the U.S., Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Peru, Chile, Venezuela, Guatemala, and Ecuador, as well as other Spanish-speaking countries.
Please pray that Spanish-speakers all over the world will continue to discover the blog and receive help to understand God's Word and live the Christian life.
FTTL Graduation
The graduation meeting of the Full-Time Training in London will be this Saturday, June 15 at Bower House. Fourteen trainees from nine nations will graduate. Please pray for the Lord's blessing on the graduates to be useful, living, and functioning members of the Body, as well as for a new crop of first-term trainees from the UK and Europe. Please also pray that the graduates will experience and enjoy Christ, live Christ, pursue Christ, gain Christ, spread Christ, and minister Christ for the building up of the Body and the preparation of the bride.

Prayer, Week of June 2
Experiencing the Development of the Divine Life
"His divine power has granted to us all things which relate to life and godliness…He has granted to us precious and exceedingly great promises that through these you might become partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption which is in the world by lust. And for this very reason also, adding all diligence, supply bountifully in your faith virtue…" (2 Peter 1:3-5)
The kingdom of God is Christ Himself as the seed of life sown into His believers, God's chosen people, and developing into a realm over which God rules as His kingdom in His divine life.
We need to experience the development of the divine life and the divine nature contained in the divine seed that has been sown into us so that we may have a rich entrance into the eternal kingdom. We should be diligent to pursue the growth and development of the divine life and divine nature for a rich entrance into the eternal kingdom. (The Development of the Kingdom of God, IV.,V.,V.B)
Lord, make us diligent in pursuing the development of Your life and nature!
We Have Not Yet Attained, but We Pursue
"I also count all things to be loss on account of the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord, on account of whom I have suffered the loss of all things and count them as refuse that I may gain Christ and be found in Him." (Phil. 3:8-9a)
The excellency of the knowledge of Christ is the excellency of Christ realized by us. Christ is excellent in Himself but our realization is limited. We need to have a vision of the preciousness of Christ and the excellency of the knowledge of the all-inclusive, unlimited Christ. (Memorial Day Conference, msg. 5, II.B, B.1)
"Not that I have already obtained or am already perfected, but I pursue....one thing I do: Forgetting the things which are behind and stretching forward to the things which are before, I pursue toward the goal for the prize." (Phil. 3:12-14a)
Like Paul, we should pursue Christ Himself and "pursue toward the goal for the prize." In order to pursue Christ, we should not think that we have attained, and we should forget the things which are behind and stretch "forward to the things which are before." (Memorial Day Conference, msg. 6, III, III.A)
SoCal Blending Conference and Weekend Children's Camp
"God has blended the body together…" (1 Cor. 12:24b)
In the blending of the churches we receive nourishment, we receive revelation, and we receive a vision of God's eternal purpose concerning Christ and the church. Such a blending is not only for our own mutual spiritual benefit but is also for the mutual building up of the Body of Christ. (1993 Blending Conference Messages concerning the Lord's Recovery and Our Present Need, ch. 2)
This weekend, June 8 to 9, the Southern California Blending Conference will be held at the Ministry Conference Center (1200 N. Hubbell Way, Anaheim, CA 92801). For the last four years, we have held similar conferences, and each time all who attended were encouraged. This practice of gathering has afforded the Lord an opportunity to speak a specific word for our present need. Bring your personal FM radio for translation into Chinese, Korean, and Spanish. The schedule is:
Saturday: 4:00–5:45 pm Meeting 1; 5:45–7:00 Break (no food for sale); 7:00–8:45 pm Meeting 2
Lord's Day: 10:00–10:30 am Lord's Table; 10:30 am–12:30 pm Meeting 3
The Weekend Children's Camp for K–6 will take place during all sessions in Anaheim at 1853 W Ball Rd. Please note: Lord's Day, June 9, there will be no meetings in any of the halls in LA.
Please pray strongly for the Lord to gather all the saints and children for this special time of blending and that He will speak a timely word to meet the present need of all churches in Southern California.
All information, including children registration, is at http://www.socalblending.org. Please register your children byTuesday, June 4.

German-Speaking Conference
June 8 to 10 will be the annual Pentecost-weekend conference for the German-speaking churches. We expect a rich feast and the blessing of the Lord in the fellowship and blending among all the saints. Let us pray that the Lord will release new light into each one of us for the building up of the churches.
United Kingdom
The exit of the UK from the EU (Brexit) has been delayed until October 31, but there is another vote in Parliament this week, and a new prime minister will be selected in the coming weeks.

Prayer, Week of May 26
Memorial Day Conference Follow-up
The general subject of the Memorial Day Conference was "The Experience of Christ." Praise the Lord for His timely speaking!
The church life is the sum total of our Christian living; we all live Christ, and our Christian living is added together to make the church life. The most important thing for us to do is to experience Christ as our enjoyment today so that the church may be built up for His glory; this is the way for us to be preserved in the Lord's recovery until He comes back. (message 1, I.H, III.E.8 = Key Statement 1)
Since Philippians is concerned with the experience and enjoyment of Christ, which issue in joy, it is a book filled with joy and rejoicing. The experience of Christ is primarily in our spirit, but the enjoyment of Christ is in our soul. The reason that many lose the enjoyment of Christ is the problem they have in the soul; if you do not have much enjoyment of Christ, it indicates that you are not one in soul, joined in soul. (message 1, III.A,B,D)
"Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice." (Phil. 4:4)
"Only, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ…that you stand firm in one spirit, with one soul striving together along with the faith of the gospel." (Phil. 1:27)
"Make my joy full, that you think the same thing, having the same love, joined in soul, thinking the one thing." (Phil. 2:2)
Lord, in all the churches, may what has been spoken become a vision that governs our lives. Lord, deepen our experience of You and save us from the problems in our soul so that we may enjoy You much more and shine brightly with You for Your magnification.
Southern California Blending Conference
Lord, give everyone a hunger to attend this conference, and overcome every practical hindrance.
BfA in Anchorage, Alaska

The distributions will take place on Saturdays, June 1, June 22, July 20, July 27, and August 17. Please pray for the Spirit to prepare the hearts of the attendees and for some to be open to receive the seed of the Word.
GTCA Cities near California – Phoenix
GTCA is the carrying out of the burden to "gospelize, truthize, and churchize" North America. This long-term labor is part of the one, unique work of the Lord to build up the Body of Christ.
Saints began meeting as the church in Phoenix in the 1990s. Today, the average number of meeting in the table and prophesying meetings on the Lord's Day is about 170. The church also gathers on Tuesday for prayer, with approximately 50 participating. In addition to the corporate meetings, there are college student meetings, small group meetings, Chinese-speaking student meetings, language meetings, sisters' meetings, and YP meetings.
The church in Phoenix is currently burdened for: 1) propagating the resurrected, ascended, and all-inclusive Christ by means of districting; 2) forming a full-time team to labor on Arizona State University campus; and 3) raising up full-timers regularly for the Lord's move here and elsewhere.
Düsseldorf, Germany
The annual book fair is Thursday to Monday, June 6 to 10. The church will have a booth to distribute Recovery Version NTs. Last year more than 800 NTs were distributed. Lord, cause the recipients to read, infuse Your truth into them, and bring them into Your present move in Germany!

Prayer, Week of May 19
Preparing, Raising up, Shepherding the Next Generation
"This charge I commit to you, my child Timothy, according to the prophecies previously made concerning you, that by them you might war the good warfare." (1 Tim. 1:18)
"O Timothy, guard the deposit." (1 Tim. 6:20) Deposit: That which was committed and entrusted to Timothy, the healthy words that he received from Paul, not only for himself but also for others. (note 1)
The Lord surely loves and cares for our children and young people, and His good intention for them is that they would become the next generation in His move. Throughout history He has depended on the faithful labor of His saints to raise up the next generation, mainly their own children, for the continuation of His divine economy on the earth.
The lessons learned by the first generation [among Israel in the wilderness] surely became part of the heritage passed on to the second generation.
The second generation did not pass through as much as the first generation did, but they received the benefit of what the first generation experienced. I believe that the older generation told the younger generation about all they experienced, enjoyed, and suffered. This speaking was part of the raising up, or the building up, of the second generation. (Raising Up the Next Generation for the Church Life, foreword and chap. 17, sec. 5)
Lord, release the entire spiritual heritage, both enjoyment an suffering, of our older generation for the preparing and raising up of our next generation.
Memorial Day Conference
"The seasons (feasts) appointed by God as holy convocations signify the gathering of God's redeemed people to have a festival with God for His joy and enjoyment so that the redeemed may participate in it with Him and with one another. According to Leviticus 23, there were seven annual feasts. Seven is the number of fullness. The seven annual feasts were in the fullness of God's riches." (Truth Lessons, Level 3, Vol. 2, ch. 8, sec. 2)
This weekend's Memorial Day Conference (May 24 to 27) in Seattle, Washington is one of our seven New Testament "feasts." Please pray that the Lord will take more crucial steps in expanding and enriching our experiences of Christ for the advancement of His purpose.
Many localities, including LA, will be partaking of this time via webcast. Pray that many will give their time to attend these webcasts and to speak with one another after the meetings. Lord, prepare us all to feast with You for Your joy and for our enjoyment with You and with one another!
SoCal Blending Conference and Weekend Children's Camp
The Southern California Blending Conference will be June 8 to 9 in Anaheim. For the last several years, we had similar conferences, and each time all who attended were encouraged. This practice of gathering the churches in Southern California has afforded the Lord an opportunity to speak a specific word for the present need of the Lord's recovery. All the saints are encouraged to reserve this weekend to gather together for corporate blending and to enter into the Lord's present speaking to the local churches in Southern California.
On the same weekend, there will be a wonderful time of blending for the dear children of the saints in the churches at the Southern California Weekend Children's Camp. This gathering is open to children in K to 6th grade; please register as early as possible before June 4.

North America College Training
Late last week, 2780 of the 2800 spots at the upcoming North America College Training were filled. From Los Angeles, we have 108 saints participating, including 55 undergrads, 3 grad students, and 16 high school seniors. The others are trainees and serving saints. Thank the Lord for what He has done so far. Please continue to keep all of these ones in your prayers!
Bibles for America
Thanks to your effectual prayers, all obstacles to shipping The All-inclusive Christ at low rates have been removed. We are moving forward to make this helpful book available to the public soon. Please pray for many thousands of seeking Christians to learn of this special offer and place an order. Pray that this book will bring more of God's children into the experience of Christ as their rich, all-inclusive portion.
Germany
Nineteen FTTA-XB trainees complete their three-week gospel trip in Germany this Tuesday. Please pray that they receive an enlarged vision and a strengthened burden for the Lord's move in Europe. Please also ask the Lord to continue shepherding all the new contacts through the local saints in Germany to gain remaining fruit for the strengthening of His testimony in Germany.
Malta
A group of saints visited the saints in Malta May 12 to 17. (There were a few prior visits in recent years.) They also had fellowship with a pastor and distributed Bibles at the university. Please pray that the Lord will gain the seekers, raise up the saints, and establish His testimony in this small European country.
Novi Sad, Serbia
On April 28 approximately 130 brothers and sisters from 16 countries gathered in Novi Sad, Serbia, a city on the banks of the Danube River. They joined the 11 saints and their children who regularly meet there for the first Lord's table in Novi Sad and in the country of Serbia.
Among all who gathered for this feast, there was a strong feeling that we witnessed and experienced something of the Body. We realized the Lord had found a group of saints who made themselves available to Him for His need in this age. They are open to follow Him according to the present truth as it is revealed in the Bible and in the fellowship of the ministry. May the Lord continue to spread freely with and among the saints in Serbia, in the Balkans, and in the whole Earth.

Azerbaijan
Please pray that the Lord would continue to open the door for the spread of the gospel of the kingdom to gain proper vessels in this country. A couple laboring there will be joined by another couple in July; pray for more saints to receive the burden to come and coordinate for the propagation in Azerbaijan.

Prayer, Week of May 12
This prayer email is composed from the speaking Lord's Day morning in the joint meeting of the church in LA. Let's pray ourselves into these burdens and have them become part of our living. Let's not discard this page after the prayer meeting. You can also listen to the speaking at http://tinyurl.com/LAnextgen.
Looking Away Unto Jesus to Enter the Good Land (Heb. 12:2)
"Let us go up at once and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it." (Num. 13:30)
"Let us…run with endurance the race which is set before us, looking away unto Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of our faith." (Heb. 12:1-2)
The things that happened with the children of Israel in the wilderness are an example to us, for our learning (1 Cor. 10). In Numbers 13 the children of Israel were journeying and ready to enter into the land. The spies went into the land for forty days. Ten returned with an evil report, a report of unbelief (Heb. 3:19), but Caleb and Joshua trusted God's word and were confident that the land could be taken.
Joshua and Caleb had faith, but this did not originate from them. Hebrews 12:2, "Looking away unto Jesus, the Author and Perfecter of our faith." If we spend time with the Author, He writes faith into us.
Another source of faith is the Word. Romans 10:17, "Faith comes out of hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ." We need to eat. The Lord is the living bread (John 6:51), the words from the mouth of God are bread (Matt. 4:4), and the enemies are our bread (Num. 14:9).
Most of the giants, the enemies, are not external, but internal. If we look at the giants it can be very discouraging. But when we eat the Lord in His word, we spontaneously overcome the enemies and they become our bread. It is impossible not to have enemies because if we want to possess and enjoy the good land, Satan will not be happy. But the real giant is our fear. We all pass through times of tears but we swallow the giants of bitterness by enjoying the Lord in His word.
Let us be today's Calebs to declare, "Let us go up at once and possess it [the land]." "Only My servant Caleb, because he had a different spirit and has fully followed Me, will I bring into the land which he entered; and his descendants shall take possession of it" (Num. 14:24). Let us do this for ourselves and for our descendants, our next generation. "Your little ones, whom you said would become plunder, I will bring in, and they will know the land" (Num. 14:31).
The Next Generation Entering the Good Land (Num. 14:31)
Joshua and Caleb were part of the next generation. They were part of the generation that came out of Egypt and were on the pathway to the promised land, a land flowing with milk and honey, a full type of Christ. In comparison to Moses, Joshua was a young man (Exo. 33:11).
Moses was taking the lead among God's people. But a time was coming, when someone else would have to rise up. This one was Joshua. But Joshua, a young man, needed to be prepared, perfected, raised up, shepherded. He was prepared and shepherded by an older man, by Moses.
The entire next generation needs the older generation to help raise them up, to care for them, to prepare them to stand for the Lord. This next generation includes those from one month old and upward (Num. 3:15)—our children, young people, college students, trainees, and young working adults.
Caleb and Othniel are examples to show us God goes on and as He continues to move, He needs people, and He especially needs young ones, the next generation who have been raised up, prepared, who have learned, who are ready to rise up in God's time of need.
The young generation needs those of the older generation who have the experience. This is not optional. It's not the conferences or the big meetings or just the select few serving ones. We all need to rise up to care and raise up the next generation for the church life.
For our prayer, our eyes need to be open to see the preciousness of the next generation. With our eyes being open, we would spend and be utterly spent on behalf of their souls (2 Cor. 12:15). As they are trying to live the godly life, they face giants, most of which we did not know at their age. So as the darts are faced by the next generation, we must take care of them.
They do not need our criticizing them, looking down on them, or holding them to a certain standard, but they do need care. They need a supporting, listening ear. They need perfecting. They need to loving patterns in the home life and church life. May we bring this burden to the Lord in prayer.
New Sixth Grade Believers
Thank the Lord for the spirit of learning and the resulting prayer and coordination that raised up care for the sixth graders since last fall. This was supported by the prayers of the church. Nineteen sixth graders from LA and Santa Clarita received the Lord at the conference last weekend.
Please pray for 1) a definite experience of the Lord in their baptisms, 2) development of a habit of reading the Bible with their family, and 3) the Lord's preservation of them to be part of the young generation entering the good land!
North America College Training
The North America college training will be July 14 to 20 on the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign campus. The subject is "The Jubilee!". Thus far around 2600 have signed up but there are still about 200 spots open and the final deadline is this Wednesday, May 15. Let us therefore pray that the Lord would release everyone who needs to be there to sign up, especially those who are high school seniors and those who are first time participants. May the Lord fill every one of the 2800 seats!
Oak Glen
The Oak Glen property has been very useful. The sixth grade conference was held at Oak Glen. Our young people conferences, college conferences, and many of the halls have gone there for retreats.
It is very important that we pay off the loan as soon as possible so that we can invest in improvements at the camp. So far the church in LA has contributed about $450,000. The target is additional $250,000 by the end of this year. We open this to the saints, to go to the Lord, and open to the Lord, and to take this opportunity to experience grace in giving. You may give to the church designated for Oak Glen or go to https://socalblendingcenter.org/donate/.
Southern California Blending Conference
This conference will be June 8 and 9 in Anaheim. Meetings will be Saturday 4:00 pm and 7:00 pm, and Lord's Day 10:00 am with simultaneous children's meetings. Translation will be provided; bring your FM radios. Information is at http://www.socalblending.org.
We urge all the saints to reserve this time to gather together for corporate blending and to enter into the Lord's present speaking to the churches in Southern California. May the God of peace be with all the saints. There will not be meetings in LA on June 9.
More specific instructions will be forthcoming regarding children's registration.

Church in Los Angeles Joint Meeting
"The bread which we break, is it not the fellowship of the body of Christ? Seeing that there is one bread, we who are many are one Body; for we all partake of the one bread." (1 Cor. 10:16b-17)
The whole church in Los Angeles—all of our halls, districts, and languages—will come together from 10 am to 12:15 pm on Lord's Day, May 12, to blend together as the Lord's one testimony in this city. This will be at LA Convention Center; a map with instructions is at https://churchinlosangeles.org/prayer.
Plan to arrive by 9:45 am to allow time for parking and walking to the meeting room. Parking costs $20, but we will distribute free parking passes at the entrance to the parking lot to those who 1) register with their district for a pass, 2) come early (pray that everyone does this) and 3) have a full (or nearly full) car.
Please entreat the Lord to gather all the saints to praise Him, to partake of Him, and to become more constituted into the reality of His Body.
We encourage everyone to plan toward lunch with others in homes or restaurants for blending (no corporate lunch at Convention Center). Pray for this.
Sixth Grade Conference Report
We had a great weekend with the sixth grade students May 3 to 5. A total of 19 out of 20 registered from L.A. and Santa Clarita for the conference attended (9 girls and 10 boys) with 18 serving saints.
The conference asked, Where are you? —hiding from God, dead in sins, without hope in the world. The students admitted their condition, repented and turned to God, believed that Jesus is their Savior from sin, and confessed their sins to the Lord. As a result they entered into the Kingdom of God, the Church.
We pray that:
- the one who missed the conference can have this experience of being saved;
- these newborn babes long for the guileless milk of the word;
- these new believers have a further experience of the Lord in baptism;
- they find companions to go on in reading the Bible, praying, and coming to the meetings;
- their parents will be involved in praying together, reading, and caring for others.
Praise the Lord!!
Oak Glen
We, the churches in Southern California, frequently use Oak Glen. The most recent use was the sixth grade conference. Thank the Lord for such a facility. The plan was to have paid the entire purchase amount by last December, but we were, and still are, far short of that goal. Let us open to the Lord about our giving, above our usual giving, to help with this purchase.
India
The October ITERO will be in Bangalore, India. Last October's ITERO in Ethiopia led to a great propagation of the recovery in that nation as well as much encouragement to brothers from many other nations in Africa.
Ask the Lord to use this October's ITERO to greatly strengthen and enlarge His move in India and the surrounding countries. Also ask the Lord to send many brothers from the U.S. including some from L.A.
Berlin, Germany
The church in Berlin is pleased to announce that we are in the final stages of securing a new meeting hall. We continue to need your fighting prayers, particularly for the signing of the contract and that the city authorities will give us the approval for the property to be used for church purposes by May 15.
United Kingdom
Spring weekend retreats are taking place at Bower House during all weekends of May. The goal of these times is to come together with fellow believers to blend and learn to function together in pursuing the truth and in serving practically. It is also a wonderful opportunity to invite friends, family, or someone you know who would like to know the Lord more or meet with other believers.
United Arab Emirates and Turkey
The Lord's Move to Asia newsletter describes His move to raise up seven churches in the UAE with over 200 saints meeting regularly. It also gives the testimony about the Lord's preparation of a couple who migrated to Istanbul, Turkey in 2007 and has continued since then.

Prayer, Week of April 28
Saved by Experiencing the All-Inclusive Christ
"As Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that every one who believes into Him may have eternal life." (John 3:14-15)
"All drank the same spiritual drink; for they drank of a spiritual rock which followed them, and the rock was Christ." (1 Cor. 10:4)
We need to see and experience the major types concerning Christ and thereby be saved from our rebellion, ambition, uncleanness, mistakes, serpentine nature, and death. Lord, save us out of our fallen self into much more experience of Yourself!
Praying to Bring in the Kingdom of God
"Your kingdom come; Your will be done, as in heaven, so also on earth." (Matt. 6:10)
"Truly I say to you, Whatever you bind on the earth shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on the earth shall have been loosed in heaven." (Matt. 18:18)
The church should pray to bring in the kingdom of God. The coming of the kingdom is not automatic. If there is no prayer, the kingdom cannot come. The church must be the outlet of heaven, allowing heaven's authority to be expressed on earth. (April ITERO, msg. 6, III.C.1,3.)
Lord's Day, May 12—the Whole Church Together in One Place
"If therefore the whole church comes together in one place," (1 Cor. 14:23) The whole church in Los Angeles will meet together Lord's Day, May 12 at L.A. Convention Center.
Pray that every member be released to come and participate in this time, to have a fresh experience of Christ, and to be blent in the Body. Pray also for the Lord's wisdom to those overseeing the practical preparations.
Sixth Grade Conference
The conference is May 3 to 5 at Oak Glen. Please pray for the Lord to prepare the hearts of all of the sixth graders leading up to the conference, to give each of them a definite experience of salvation, and to companionize them as they go on as young people in the church life.
Gospel to All the Nations Conference
The burden of a conference in Brooklyn, May 3 to 5, is the gospel to all the nations (Matt. 24:14) with a view of reaching African Americans. This burden has led to much prayer and fellowship and several conferences. This is a move of the Body and it needs the saints to pray and participate, regardless of ethnicity. This is not a matter of race; it is a matter of the ratio of African Americans currently meeting in the churches in North America (less than 1%) compared to the general population of African Americans in the U.S. (approximately 13%). We pray that the Lord would reap families from these communities throughout the U.S. and Canada.
Bibles for America
BfA plans to make free copies of The All-inclusive Christ available for the public to order via our website. Over the past months, we encountered some difficulty with the U.S. Postal Service regarding a potential large increase in shipping costs; fortunately, that issue has been resolved, and we have been approved to mail the books at our previous low rates.
However, prayer is still needed that there would be no further obstacles to shipping these books. Please pray that the USPS Bulk Mail Unit in Chicago will implement the lower shipping rate in a timely way so that people throughout this country could discover the riches of our all-inclusive Christ.
United Kingdom
A series of one-week trainings for the saints in Europe begins April 29 at Bower House in London. Subsequent weeks begin May 6, 13, and 20. The burden of these trainings is the "perfecting of the saints unto the work of the ministry, unto the building up of the Body of Christ" (Eph. 4:12). These times help the saints to be infused with the truth, perfected for their functioning in the church life, and equipped and vitalized for the gospel. The overall theme is "The Four Great Pillars in the Lord's Recovery: Truth, Life, the Church, and the Gospel."
Germany
The FTT Taipei one-month gospel trip in Germany concludes this week and the Boston extension (FTTA-xB) three-week gospel trip in Germany begins this week. Please ask the Lord for:
- rich blending and coordination of the Boston trainees with saints in Germany;
- smooth handover of contacts made by Taipei trainees to Boston trainees;
- contact with students by both Taipei and Boston to result in continuing appointments;
- the trainees to receive an enlarged vision of and burden for the Lord's move in Europe.

Prayer, Week of April 21
Priests Possessed, Saturated, Living Christ Absolutely
"Then Jehovah spoke to Moses, saying, speak to Aaron and say to him, When you set up the lamps, the seven lamps will give light in front of the lampstand. And Aaron did so; he set up its lamps to give light in front of the lampstand, as Jehovah had commanded Moses." (Num. 8:1-3)
Numbers 7 ends with God speaking in the Tent of Meeting, and chapter 8 begins with God's continued speaking concerning the lighting of the lamps for light. This sequence indicates that whenever God's word comes, His people receive light. The holy task of lighting the lamps was a service of holy persons, the priests. A priest is one who is possessed by God, filled with God, saturated with God, and living absolutely for God; furthermore, a priest had to be clothed with priestly garments which signify Christ lived out of the priesthood. (Crystallization-Study of Numbers, week 9, II.C-C.1, III.D-D.1)
The Lord made us priests in position (Rev. 1:6). For lighting the lamps we need the word of God and the Spirit (the oil). When we have a rich supply of the word and the Spirit, we are priests in reality—possessed, filled, saturated, and living Christ. Lord, bring us all further into this reality!
July Semiannual Training Registrations
This is the final week to register for the July Semiannual Training, July 1 to 6, in Anaheim ($205). Late registrations will not be accepted. For saints in LA, registration and payment instructions are at http://tinyurl.com/summertrainingla. Registrations for the local video trainings ($105) are due June 11. Please contact your district's registration coordinator if you have any questions.
We hope that many saints will seize the opportunity to participate in this training. As the Lord leads, may many be led of the Lord to budget their time and money so that they can physically attend the meetings. "You [Timothy] have closely followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, long-suffering, love, endurance" (2 Tim. 3:10). May we likewise closely follow the Lord's up-to-date speaking so that the Lord may build His Body and prepare His bride.
Southern California Sixth Grade Preparation Meeting
This meeting will be Saturday, April 27, in Anaheim, 2528 W La Palma Ave, Anaheim, 92801, 2:00 to 3:30 PM. Visit http://www.SCYP.com and click on Event Registration.
We particularly ask for at least one parent of each sixth grader planning on attending the sixth grade conference, as well as all those who will be shepherding them during and after the conference, to join us for this crucial time of fellowship. The upcoming junior high years are a key determining factor in retaining and gaining our young people during their crucial transition from childhood to the teenage years so we hope we could all labor in one accord with one view to gain them during this weekend and beyond.
GTCA Cities in California – Fresno/Clovis
GTCA is the carrying out of the long-term burden to "gospelize, truthize, and churchize" North America. More than 20 cities are targeted for ongoing care and labor in 2019, including 3 in California.
Clovis is 9 miles northeast of Fresno. It is the location of a community college and close to Cal State University-Fresno. There are 20 saints living in Clovis who presently meet locally during the week and with the church in Fresno on Lord's Days. The prayer requests from Fresno and Clovis:
- The saints would continue to pray in small groups and shepherd the gospel contacts from the college campuses and the community.
- The Lord would raise up a campus team to labor on the 3 campuses: Cal State Fresno, Fresno City College, and Clovis Community College.
Birmingham, United Kingdom
There is currently a burden to strengthen the Lord's testimony in Birmingham, the second-most populous city in the United Kingdom after London. In line with this burden, there will be a special one-week training from April 23 to 28 in Birmingham. This time is for all who would like to be trained in the God-ordained way, and specifically for those who are open to, considering, or in the process of migrating to Birmingham. The first-year FTTL trainees will also join this training.
Novi Sad, First Local Church in Serbia
Serbia is a nation of about seven million people in southeast Europe. The first lampstand in Serbia will be established with the Lord's table in Novi Sad on April 28. Pray for a strong beginning of the Lord's testimony in the nation's second-largest city through the blending and fellowship in the Body.
France
The annual spring conference for French-speaking Europe will be in Paris, April 26 to 28.
Germany
Please pray for these on-going burdens:
- More families and serving ones to pick up the burden of migration in 2019 for the Lord's spread to additional cities in Germany.
- The Lord's grace to the migrated saints in their learning and practicing the German language.
- The meeting, shepherding, and gaining of German college students and young German families.
- The perfecting of the Arabic- and Farsi-speaking saints to grow in life and in their function for the building up of the Body of Christ and to open their homes as shepherds' tents.

Prayer, Week of April 14
Come Forward with Boldness to the Throne of Grace
"When Moses went into the Tent of Meeting to speak with Him, he heard the voice speaking to him from above the expiation cover that was upon the Ark of the Testimony, from between the two cherubim; and he spoke to Him." (Num. 7:89)
"Let us therefore come forward with boldness to the throne of grace that we may receive mercy and find grace for timely help." (Heb. 4:16)
The expiation cover signifies Christ as the place where God meets with His redeemed people and speaks to them in grace. The fact that God met with His people and spoke to them from above the expiation cover and between the cherubim signifies that God meets with us and speaks to us in the propitiating Christ and in the glory expressed in the propitiating Christ as His testimony.
The expiation cover on the Ark in the Holy of Holies equals the throne of grace in Hebrews 4:16. (Crystallization-Study of Numbers, msg. 8, II.A, II.D.1, III)
The Prayer of the Kingdom Life
"Truly I say to you, whatever you bind on the earth shall have been bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on the earth shall have been loosed in heaven." (Matt. 18:18)
We need to read and consider prayerfully the Lord's speaking in Matthew 18:15-22, which reveals how we can live the kingdom life....Verse 17 is so low, saying that we should let the sinning one who will not listen to the church be to us like a Gentile and a tax collector. But verse 18 says that we should touch heaven by our binding and releasing prayer....Whatever we pray, our Father in heaven will accomplish to gain that person.
Many times we feel that a certain saint is a hopeless case [in verse 17]....We would not take Christ as the heavenly ladder in verse 18 to climb up to the heavens with prayer that binds Satan and looses the sinning brother. We and the church may have no way with this brother, but should we give him up? We have to bind the binding one and release the bound one by praying together in harmony. (WL, The Vital Groups, chap. 1, sec. 2-3; part of reading for ITERO, msg. 3)
We can pray the same way for dormant brothers, brothers occupied with the world, and unbelievers.
Junior High Brothers' Conference
From April 19 to 21, brothers from across Southern California will gather at Oak Glen for the Spring 2019 Junior High Brothers' Conference. For this conference we pray:
- for the Lord to prepare the hearts of all of the young brothers in Southern California;
- that they would see how much the Lord loves the church; and
- that they would choose the church and would dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of their life (Psalm 27:4).
North America College Training
As of last weekend, 1615 are registered leaving almost 1200 spots open. Now is the time to strongly beseech the Lord to operate in the hearts and circumstances of all the students and serving ones to rise up and commit to attend the NACT this summer.
Bibles for America
A new version of our app has been designed to help people study 15 important topics in the New Testament using key verses and notes in the Recovery Version. Study topics include Christ, the economy of God, Christian experience, the church, and more. Verses and footnotes under each topic are linked to the online NT Recovery Version; an offer for a free physical copy from BfA is also included in the app. It is now available to download for free through the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store. It will soon be made available on our website.
Please pray for this app to be easily found and downloaded. Pray that it would be useful to those who are interested in studying the many important truths in the Bible.
Europe
The European Brothers' Training is Tuesday to Thursday, April 16 to 18 in London. They will watch videos of the ITERO messages, have group study times, and fellowship about the Lord's move in Europe. The International Blending Conference will be Saturday and Lord's Day, April 20 to 21 in London.
Please pray for the Lord's blessing on every aspect of this training and this conference (including the facility, hospitality, services, and messages) and the preparation of every attendee to receive the Lord's up-to-date speaking and to enter into the universal fellowship of the Body
Gdansk, Poland
Gdansk is the leading city in northern Poland with almost 500,000 inhabitants. The broader urban area includes 100,000 university students.
During the FTTA gospel trip in January, visiting trainees and local saints conducted a two-day distribution of the Polish NT Recovery Version near the University of Gdansk. The openness among the students encouraged the saints in Poland to continue to visit after the gospel trip. Since February, four distributions resulted in over 700 NTs given away. Dozens of good conversations were held; eight students received the Lord. Please stand with us in prayer that:
- the Lord burden at least two families and two single saints to migrate and live near the University of Gdansk, to take care of students open to meet with us and church-life students studying there.
- the Lord will open the way to visit Gdansk regularly and burden the three nearby churches to join in sowing and shepherding students who are open for further contact.
- more students will be open to give us their contact information for further fellowship.
