Our team: Carson Long, Josh Kienzle, Everett Douglas, and I came from California, Arizona, and South Carolina. We arrived two days after our departure, trained for three and half days, made the two-day trek back home, and slept...finally. Fifty-five house church leaders showed up eager to be equipped. The focus of our training was on "multiplying disciples" using 1 John 2:12-14 as our template.

"I am writing to you, little children, because your sins are forgiven for his name's sake. I am writing to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning. I am writing to you, young men, because you have overcome the evil one. I write to you, children, because you know the Father. I write to you, fathers, because you know him who is from the beginning.

I write to you, young men, because you are strong, and the word of God abides in you, and you have overcome the evil one." 1 John 2:12-14 ESV

These women and men will return to their homes and begin reproducing what they learned. In January, we trained a group who trained 914 others in just two months. We are expecting the same again this time. Thank you for sending us. The return on investment is far better than the stock market.
