ISP Around the World

How are you? We pray that you and your family are healthy and safe, and that you are continuing to grow in your faith, even in the midst of our current pandemic.

Even though Mark and I and the teams we’re on have been unable to travel and collect stories during this time, we’re hearing stories from all over the world about how God is at work in people’s lives. Previously, International School Project staff members traveled the world training teachers how to deepen their faith and reach their peers with the gospel.

Now, our team members meet with teachers online via Zoom to plan both virtual and in-person outreaches. Later this month, six teams of Mongolian teachers plan to travel to cities in their country where there are existing teacher communities.

They will train Christian teachers to explain their faith to their peers and help them grow in faith. They’ll also hold professional training events for teachers in those cities. A seventh team will travel to a new city and seek to establish a teacher community there.

In Cambodia, teachers from cities across the country join a weekly prayer and planning video call. In several of the cities, teachers are planning professional training events as well as evangelism and discipleship training for teachers who are ready to reach out to their peers.

In Ecuador, our local staff members have opened up new ministries in three cities. Most of the work was done via video calls. They host a weekly call so teachers can pray with each other and encourage each other.

God continues to open doors for us to reach teachers around the world, who are some of the most influential members of their societies.

Pray for teachers in Mongolia, Cambodia and Ecuador to grow in their faith and introduce their co-workers to Christ. Pray for Mark and I and our teams as we help Cru staff members around the world tell the stories of how God is at work in their lives and help disciple people through digital methods.

Thank you for your generous gifts and prayers for our ministry. You allow us to continue doing the work God has called us to do.
