We're looking at the 12 Principles of Church Multiplication from the booklet "Church Planting Guide." Today, Abundant Gospel Sowing.

Let's take a look at the 12 Principles of Church Multiplication from the booklet "Church Planting Guide." First up is Fervent Prayer.

Join us in praying for the Circle of Silence ministry in Mexico. The team continues to encourage, train, and mobilize the church in the eight-state circle/region around Mexico City to fulfill the Great Commission.

Pray for the leaders as they continue to make new contacts in the northern region of Mexico to share the mission of the SaturaMexico team. In the state of Michoacan, in Purepecha God has touched the hearts of the people of an indigenous group, and lives have been transformed.

Pray for Vicki and her daughter Libby Pasterik as they prepare to go to Panama early Wednesday morning.
Vicki asks us for prayer for the trip:
"Please pray as we work to build relationships - with Crossroads Church in Pittsburgh who invited us to be part of this adventure, with the church planting team in Panama City that we will be working with, and with our team in Panama that we have been working with for 4 or 5 years to reach Panama with the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
We love how God connects the dots and brings people into relationship to accomplish His purposes here on earth. So grateful to be allowed to be part of His plan."

Thank you for your prayers for Willie and Mike as they traveled to the Caribbean to help train our leaders there. They brought them reports of what God is doing in the OMS world and encouraged the churches and the ECC Light to the Cities teams.

From Willie: "We felt the Holy Spirit’s presence in each meeting with leadership, pastors, missionaries, and the people we met on the streets.

“We had a number of meetings with the leadership of both partners, pastor’s meetings, and worshiped with them on Sunday in their churches. It was very noticeable that they were excited to be receiving training about Jesus so that they, too, could share what they had been taught.”

OMS Ukraine missionary, Brent Weaver, met to coach disciple-makers in Estonia last week. We're grateful for the encouraging meetings he had, including with the Estonian men's and women's group (pictured), considering lament and the trustworthiness of God as they read in Lamentations 3 and Habakkuk 3.

From OMS missionary Roger Kruse, church multiplication facilitator for India: "We have received heartwarming reports of new believers in India being transformed by the power of the Gospel. Recently, our church planters began ministry in a remote village with a highly disproportionate number of widows (due to tiger attacks!). Our Indian coworkers brought compassionate help, as well as the Good News of Jesus, which has supplanted the heaviness of struggle and sorrow with HIS joy and peace."

What are you most looking forward to in 2022?

From OMS missionary, Jose Banales, church multiplication facilitator for Mexico, "We are very grateful for the Satura México team and partners in ministry who just completed a youth camp in which 330 campers attended, from 10 different churches, with 18 adult pastors and leaders from six locations in the Mexico City area."
