Russ & Meredith Martin - Singapore

Praying for Martins @ Congress

Your prayers are needed and will make a massive difference in the next 21 days. The Fourth Lausanne Congress is about to happen and we're serving at the core of the leadership team.

Our theme: Let the Church declare and display Christ together.

In 12 days we will:
Welcome 5,000 participants from 200+ countries to Korea and 1,000+ participants to a virtual experience.
Lead a team of 200+ volunteers.
Guide and facilitate all the creative, digital, marketing, commuications and IT touchpoints participants will experience.

It's a massive effort and needs a massive amount of prayer.

Please pray:
That our kids would be safe and thrive in their school routine at home with a family friend for 15 days while we are gone.
 For our physical strength and energy. We are working long days leading and collaborating with teams around the globe.
For logistical arrangements as a significant number of participants have not reported their flight details, are still waiting for a visa or fundraising their fees.
For the Congress Virtual Experience (VX) as Russ' team tries something new and there are hurdles to overcome.
That indeed the global Church would declare and display Christ as we seek to partner in God's global mission.

In 21 days, everything will be wrapped up and participants launched into a fresh season of ministy.

We couldn't be in this without your faithful prayer and financial support.
