50 Years Later

Now I’m on my way to Korea!  In 1974 Billy Graham and others sponsored the first historic Lausanne Congress on World Evangelization. I had recently come to Christ through a 1972 Billy Graham crusade in Cleveland, Ohio. Much later in 2010 I participated in the third Lausanne congress in Cape Town South Africa. Now this September about 5000 leaders and I have the privilege of joining the fourth such gathering 50 years after that first gathering in 1974. Please pray with us: Lord of the Harvest, please lead these 5000 leaders from 230 countries to be focused and faithful in fulfilling God’s assignments for us in our generation. (2 Timothy 4:5-7) 

PrayFirst,

P.S. All our MENA regional leaders agreed that our gathering was our best yet, with deep connecting, clear focus and growing bold faith for growing the next generation. Then Renée and I flew on for a field visit with our son and his family.  They’ve established a beachhead, and a team is beginning to grow around them.  Renée remained with them while I’m flying on to Korea.
