Global Challenge - South Africa

Global Challenge is an initiative by OM where Christians can join a short outreach to communities around the world. In South Africa we host an outreach every year in the July school holidays. This year we will reach out to communities living around Gauteng.

Just over a week to go!

We have a little more than a week to go before about 400 people arrive in the city of George for the Outeniqua Challenge! We have received applications from about 390 people and we will have about 40 people who will attend our 3-day orientation and training in George from 2-5 July. There will be a total of 33 countries represented by these people.

We are continuing to work on the last minute details, but things seem to be in order. We are seeing God strengthen us as well as provide some extra hands for these final details. We can definitely bank on the fact that God is in control!

Please join us in praying for the final things that need to be done that J.P., Pollyanna and Bonny will be working on. Also, pray for the nearly 400 participants who will be coming to join the Outeniqua Challenge. First pray that God removes anything that can be used to prevent them from coming (better options, family, finances, visas, etc.). Next pray that God prepares these individuals to be used by Him during this outreach. There is amazing potential with 45 teams being sent out around the Southern Cape. We are excited about seeing what God is going to do in and through the participants.

We greatly appreciate your prayers and welcome any comments or encouragement you would like to post on this blog. Thanks.
