National College Training: Living Overcomers
The National College Training was the beginning of a new era in the Lord’s move on the campuses and we must strongly pray for its continuation. We believe that the time is near for the Lord’s coming and this generation will see His face! May they be a factor to usher in the final revival that will bring the Lord back! In particular, pray that the students (and all of us) would maintain daily habits of:
- Loving the Lord and eating His word in the morning
- Reading His word
- Walking by the Spirit, shining in the midst of the darkness of this age
- Participating in the prayer meetings of the church
- Preaching the gospel
- Praying with companions regularly
- Freshly consecrating

Summer School of Truth
Praise the Lord for His blessing in this year's Summer School of Truth. There was a genuine atmosphere of seeking the Triune God among all the young people this past week. As we experienced His rich dispensing, the Triune God became real, not only as doctrine or knowledge, but as a Person who lives in us and is constantly caring for us every moment of every day.
There was a strong conclusion to SSoT, both in the final meeting Saturday night and in the various district meetings on Lord's Day. Many shared on the workshops and messages that were given to introduce daily life practices to initiate contact with the Lord and to keep the dialogue open no matter the difficult circumstances.
Pray for a rich continuation of the good deposit in all the young people as they descend on their junior high and high school campuses this semester. Also pray for the Lord's leading and direction in the serving ones for the continual care of the young people.
Internet
Matthew 7:7 says, "...seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you." Please ask the Lord to fulfill His word and bring many hungry seekers to find nourishment on internet sites which present the riches of the ministry. These include BfA, Rhema Books, LSM online publications, Witness Lee and Watchman Nee websites, Recovered to the Bible, and many web sites of churches, campus clubs, and individuals.
Please pray also for the saints who give time each week to “war the good warfare” (1 Tim. 1:18) for the Lord’s move on the internet.
Alaska
On June 27-28 and July 11-12 the church in Anchorage distributed approximately 280 New Testament Recovery Versions and 380 ministry books at the Anchorage Market and Festival. A booth has been reserved for another weekend. Please pray that the Lord would operate in the hearts of those who have already received Bibles and books.
Additionally, the saints in Alaska recently sent an email to BfA recipients throughout the state to find out if any would like to participate in a local or online Bible study. Please pray that the Lord would motivate many to respond and that they would be connected in a solid way to a Bible study. Pray also for the Lord’s leading and the abundant supply of grace for the saints as they care for those who respond.

National College Training: Consecrated Age Turners
The National College Training concluded July 18, but the burden goes on. May we all become a corporate, praying “Hannah” to bring forth these young ones as today’s “Samuel,” a corporate Nazarite willing to cooperate with God to be His age-turners and end this age.
From http://beseeching.org: We consider that the National College Training was the beginning of a new era in the Lord’s move on the campuses and must strongly pray for its continuation. We believe that the time is near for the Lord’s coming and this generation will see His face! In particular, pray that the students would:
- Establish a set time and place each day to romantically love the Lord and eat His word in the morning;
- Immediately commit to daily read His word;
- Walk by the Spirit in daily life, shining as an anti-testimony in the midst of the darkness of this present age;
- Experience outpouring of the economical Spirit of power by participating in the prayer meetings of the church and by preaching the gospel with authority;
- Pray with companions regularly, being built up with one another and loosing their friends and classmates to be saved;
- Daily renew their consecration before the Lord for the rest of their lives to turn this age;
- Bring the fire of the Lord’s recovery to all of His saints in His recovery and be a factor to usher in the final revival that will bring the Lord back!

Summer School of Truth
The Los Angeles Summer School of Truth continues to August 1 with overflow Lord’s Day, August 2. Please pray for the young people to enter into a normal and genuine touch with the Lord day by day, so that the mysterious Triune God would no longer be a mystery to them. May the Lord cause all the young people to become loving-seekers and loving-experiencers of the processed and consummated Triune God.
European Young People's Conference & Children and Parents’ Conference
The 2015 European Young People's Conference (ages 13 to 19 plus serving saints) and the Children (ages 4 to 12) and Parents’ Conference is in Małe Ciche, Poland, Lord's Day, July 26 through Saturday, August 1. Over 1100 young people, serving saints, parents, and children are registered.
It is our desire that the Lord would have a way to reach each young person attending this conference, that each young person’s love for the Lord would grow and that they would consecrate themselves in a deeper and more thorough way in this conference. We therefore ask all the churches to stand with us in prayer during the conference that the Word of the Lord would be prevailing.
Through this conference in past years, many U.S. young people have been brought into the Lord’s burden for Europe. Lord, do more this summer for Your move to and in Europe!
Chinese-Speaking Students’ Perfecting
The annual Chinese-speaking students' perfecting training will be held in Franklin Park, NJ from July 27 to August 2. As in the past, there will be weekend extensions to the perfecting training in other areas in North America. The intent is to perfect these newly-saved students in truth, life, vision, and service.
Russian-Speaking Students Training
We thank God that every summer, in August, students from all over the Russian-speaking world have the opportunity to meet in Moscow to participate in student training. Many can attest that every time their participation in training is an excellent opportunity to devote their time on vacation to the Lord, to seek Christ with their peers, to get improvement in the truth and the life of the gospel, and to find a new beginning with the Lord before the new school year.
This training is in Moscow July 24 to August 29. http://studentslovingjesus.ru/traineeship-2015/

National College Training: Consecrated Age Turners
The National College Training concluded Saturday. The report from Friday night, with the corporate consecration of 1300 college students: “The atmosphere was palpable, electrifying, and unquenchable! And all who were there will have the memory of tonight stamped into their being. Lives have been changed and the Lord has gained what He is after!” (Longer daily reports and photos are at http://beseeching.org.)
Let us continue to petition the Lord to:
• keep the fire burning in every student who attended;
• bring this atmosphere of consecration to other students in the recovery and to all the churches;
• release the gospel through the students wherever they are before their school year; and
• cast fire on all the college campuses to gain an unprecedented number of freshmen this fall.
Summer School of Truth
L.A.’s Summer School of Truth will be July 24 to August 1. This year we will cover Lesson Book 2 - The Triune God and the Person and Work of Christ. First Corinthians 8:4 says, “There is no God but one.” Although our God is one, there is something mysterious about Him. In Matthew 28:19 the Lord Jesus says, “Baptizing them into the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” Here the Lord speaks clearly of the three—the Father, Son, and Spirit. But “name” is singular. The burden for the upcoming SSoT is for the young people to enter into a normal and genuine touch with the Lord, day by day, so that the mysterious Triune God would no longer be a mystery to them. May the Lord cause all the young people to become loving-seekers and loving-experiencers of the processed and consummated Triune God.
Also pray that the Lord would cover all aspects of coordination and fellowship leading up to the SSoT for a bountiful release of the Triune God.

New Training Center in Mexico City
FTT Mexico began in 1999 as a section of FTTA. It moved to Mexico City in 2002. The training center used since then needs to be replaced because 1) by the fall semester it will be overcrowded, 2) it is one hour from UNAM, the number one university in Mexico, which frustrates trainees in practicing campus work, and 3) the area around this training center is less secure than when we began here.
We agreed to purchase a new facility which is much larger, only 11⁄2 miles from UNAM, and in one of the safest locations in Mexico City. The cost is 3.5M US$; we have received a little over 2M US$ and made a 50% down payment.We need 1.5M US$ by August 15 to obtain the title. Please pray for this.
Offerings may be given to the church, designated for the Mexico City training center.
Young People's Conference of the Americas
The 2015 Young People's Conference of the Americas for ages 12 to 22 will take place in São Roque, Brazil Wednesday, July 22 through Lord's Day, July 26.
Krakow, Poland
Please pray for the monthly English Bible and Polish ministry book distributions in Krakow. Please pray also for the shepherding of the seeking ones here and for the raising up of the church in Krakow.
Greece
Recently, the Lord released a three-year residence permit for the full-time serving ones from the USA. Praise and thank Him for His faithfulness and for answering the prayers of the saints!
Please pray for Greece as it goes through the present economic and political crisis. Pray that the heavens will rule and that the Lord will soften many hearts and produce a desperate seeking in the Greek people.

NCT: Loving Seekers to be God’s Age Turners
The National College Training (NCT) is NOW. It continues through Saturday, July 18 on the University of Illinois campus. The goal of this training is to raise up a generation of age turners who will bring the Lord back. “Come, Lord Jesus!” (Rev. 22:20)
Let us petition the Lord to bestow the top divine blessing of His own presence as the out-poured Spirit upon this training. May we intercede on behalf of a new generation of young people that each will have a life-changing encounter with the God of glory. Supplicate for their total possession by the Master for His use.
Pray that these young believers as a group will offer themselves willingly in the splendor of their consecration and be like the dew from the womb of the dawn, watering Christ in the day of His warfare (Psa. 110:3). Beseech on their behalf that not one of them will despise their youth, but will become a pattern to the saints (1 Tim. 4:12).
Daily updates of the NCT can be viewed at beseeching.org.

Summer Training
In the winter training we saw the salvation and provision of God bringing us to the kingdom. The result is that we come to the mountain of God where we spend time with Him (as Moses did), He speaks to us, and He shines into us to make us shining. May we be those with unveiled face on top of the mountain in God’s glory, not those below, trembling under the cloud.

The Need for a New Revival
God became man to make man God in life, nature, and expression but not in the Godhead so that God could produce and build up a corporate expression. When we have a vision of this, the God-man living comes forth. This living has a function—shepherding.
In this conference we saw the high peak of divine revelation. What should we do? In 2 Samuel 7:5-17 Nathan spoke a high peak of revelation to David. David’s response: he “went and sat before Jehovah” (v. 18) and prayed (v. 18-29). Like David, let us pray, Lord, do in us what You have spoken. Penetrate our living. Bring forth Your shepherding through us.
Summer Training
In the winter training we saw the salvation and provision of God (ch. 1–17) bringing us to the kingdom (ch. 18). The result is that we see the vision of God’s building and enter into the building work (ch. 19–40). Lord, grant us all more vision and more building!
Lord, give each one of us a heart to love Your word and to receive this training in a fresh way.
National College Training, “Come, Lord Jesus!”
The National College Training is July 12-18 on the University of Illinois campus in Urbana- Champaign (halfway between St. Louis and Chicago). An invitation to pray for this training is at http://beseeching.org/prayer-for-college-training/.

Middle-Age Training
Saturday, June 20, 35 trainees graduated from the Middle-age training in Anaheim.
Please pray that:
- all continue in the grace of God which trains us in our daily living (Titus 2:11-12);
- each one “follow the Lamb wherever He may go” (Rev. 14:4);
- the Lord bring at least 40 new trainees for the entire fall term.
Korean-speaking Bible Seminar in LA
We had a very special seminar last Saturday. Seventy-five new ones participated and the majority of them were young men in their 20s and 30s (55 were from one theology school). Also many young saints functioned in various services including becoming the host in the group sessions. We all enjoyed what grace is and how we can enjoy the Lord as grace.
Please pray that:
- These new ones could remain in contact with the saints who were in the same group session.
- We could maintain a good relationship with the theology school and this school could be open door
for the gospel of kingdom. - More young brothers and sisters would function in gospel preaching and shepherding.
London
From April to May, we had a series of 8 weekend retreats in London. 653 attended these retreat weekends, including 218 new ones. The subject was God's Eternal Purpose as Seen in the Book of Ephesians. During these two months, all were infused with a seeing that God's eternal purpose, His heart's desire is the church. Please pray for all those 218 new ones to be contacted and shepherded and to enter into the church life.
European Blending Trip to US
European university students will be making a blending trip to the U.S. The full trip includes the FTTA graduation, the summer training in Anaheim, a week of sightseeing and activities with students in the Chicago area, and the National College Training.
Lord, grant these students many precious experiences of Yourself and Your Body.
FTT London
Saturday, June 13, was the graduation of the Full-Time Training in London. It was marvelous. Over 600 attended to witness what the Lord has done in the 15 graduates from 10 countries over their two years of training.
Czech Republic
On June 13 we had our sixth seminar in this series of six. The topic was “The Vision of the Glorious Church.” The atmosphere of the seminar was pleasant. 13 saints and 5 new ones attended. Two of the new ones attended this seminar series for the first time. There is a feeling among us to continue the seminars in some way. This also was shared with the attendees at the seminar.
We are so thankful for the prayer support of the Body. As a direct result of the seminars a very good connection has been established with a sister from outside of Prague, with a brother who lives close to Prague, and with one couple from Prague. The sister who came from 170 km east of Prague will arrange a time of fellowship in her town with some other seeking believers whom she knows. This will probably be in second half of July. We would like to continue with the seminars in September and perhaps even try to have some seminars in other cities.
Sri Lanka
In the past 6 months, the Lord moved rapidly in Sri Lanka through the coordination of the Body. Overseas saints came to labor in one accord with the local saints for various moves from December to April. The Lord indeed poured out His blessing. The church in Mannar was raised up, and the saints were full of burden to declare that they would co-labor with the Lord to raise up 17 local churches in the next 6 years. More about the saints’ experiences in Sri Lanka is at http://lmasia.org/temp/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/E-2015-06.pdf (English) http://lmasia.org/temp/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/Asia-2015-06.pdf (Chinese)

The Need for a New Revival
John 21:15 “Jesus said to Simon Peter, Simon, son of John, do you love Me more than these? He said to Him, Yes, Lord, You know that I love You. He said to him, Feed My lambs.”
Three factors are necessary for the new and final revival: seeing the vision, living the life, and shepherding according to God. Our seeing must be so strong that we are energized, motivated, and governed. This will cause us to be one with the Lord in our living, which will issue in shepherding. Shepherding includes the gospel to sinners. Without shepherding, our vision and living do not stay healthy in our experience. When we love the Lord daily and shepherd His sheep, our vision and living stay fresh.
We need to follow the steps of the processed Triune God in seeking and gaining fallen people. Our not having the Father’s loving and forgiving heart and the Savior’s shepherding and seeking spirit is the reason for our barrenness. (message 5, outline I.B.1-2)
Summer Training
In the winter training we saw the salvation and provision of God (ch. 1–17) brining us to the kingdom (ch. 18). The result is that we see the vision of God’s building and enter into the building work (ch. 19–40). Lord, grant us all more vision and more building!
Please also pray for the bountiful supply to the brothers preparing to speak, and for wisdom to those caring for other preparations for the training.

The Need for a New Revival
To realize that we are God-men, born of God and belonging to God’s species, is the beginning of the God-man living (message 4, outline, I.E).
The new revival is to constitute us to live Christ always, in every place, at all times, with all kinds of people, and in all circumstances. This is not a once-for-all revival; it requires our constant attention to the One who lives the life of a God-man as the Spirit living in us and through us.
Ephesians 3:14, 16-17 “For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father, that He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power through His Spirit into the inner man, that Christ may make His home in your hearts through faith…”

Prayer, Week of May 31, 2015
The Need for a New Revival
God needs a corporate people to be raised up by His grace through the high peak of the divine revelation to live a life according to this revelation. A revival is the practice, the practicality, of the vision we have seen (message 3, outline I. and I.A).
God brings us into experience through revelation. John 14:19b, “you behold Me; because I live, you also shall live.” Lord, keep us beholding You!
“We should all declare that we want to live the life of a God-man. Eventually, the God-men will be the victors, the overcomers, the Zion within Jerusalem. This will bring in a new revival which has never been seen in history, and this will end this age”—Life-study of 1 and 2 Chronicles, p. 28. (message 3, outline IV.)

Chicago
The church in Chicago recently ordered a large number of BfA gospel tracts, product offer cards, Bibles, and books as part of a burden to practice more regular gospel outreach. Each week, the saints spend an hour to exercise the priesthood of the gospel by speaking to people in the community and sharing the free materials with them.
Please pray that the Lord would grace the saints and sustain them as they go forth each week. Pray also that the Spirit would prepare many people’s hearts to receive the free materials and to be open to the speaking of the saints. May the Lord bless the church in Chicago and may He continue to bring all the churches in the US into the priesthood of the gospel!
Australia
Lord’s Day, May 31, Dick Taylor, James Lee, and Craig Birchler departed to Australia. The National Serving Ones Training will begin this Friday and continue through next week Tuesday. This will be a re-speaking of the spring ITERO plus fellowship times with small groups of responsible saints. The subject is The Recovery of the Priesthood for God’s Building.
Ask the Lord to grant salvation from any form of clergy-laity for more recovery of the practice of the priesthood in Australia.
Also ask the Lord to richly supply the traveling brothers and to flow through them for the building up of every church in Australia.
Krakow, Poland
Since the beginning of this year there has been a positive response to literature distribution in Krakow. These distributions are conducted by coordination of saints from multiple churches in Poland. A one-page report is at https://blog.churchinlosangeles.org/prayer/. These saints request our prayer for
- the openness and the willingness of literature recipients for further meetings and that some may become the seeds for the church life here;
- obtaining a permit to legally set the distribution table in a strategic location in Krakow;
- the coordination and participation of the saints from different localities in Poland for further distributions and care of literature recipients.
- the migration of one or two families, with some serving saints, to Krakow in order to strengthen the direct care for believers in Krakow who have received literature or otherwise contacted the recovery.
