Doors Are Opening Worldwide by Dr. Clint May

We covet your prayers for this ministry. As you can see from our newsletter, the Lord is on the move in the lives of children and students. It is an honor to serve the Lord in this capacity and witness God's powerful move in kids’ lives today. What a joy it is to cast the vision with leaders worldwide. It is difficult to describe or wrap my mind around what the Lord is doing, but He is in control, and I want to follow His leadership. As you read through this newsletter, please pray for these different ministry opportunities and the children and students involved.

Two Trainings in Ivory Coast Were So Powerful by Isaac Mphande

The two trainings were so powerful, and I thank God for the success of the Empowering the Next Generation conference in Abidjan and the Way of the Disciple conference in Assinie. L.I.T. Ministries is growing in Africa and around the globe. We praise God for this great work. Along with Heidi Hayslip, we had the opportunity to share the gospel and preach the Word of God to about 2,000 children and parents. What a joy to minister to all those kids, and they were dressed in traditional clothes of African countries and regions. (In the picture to the right are Isaac from Zambia, Heidi from the USA, Charles from Ivory Coast, and Pam from Nigeria.)
