Pray for DCPI World Zone Leaders

I had a terrific time meeting with several World Zone Coordinators and Regional Directors from Asia during DCPI’s Global Vision Summit in February. I’ve worked with R Jayakumar of India before, at training events in Thailand and India. “Jay” is a tireless Christian leader with a passion for saturating India with Christian churches. Several of the Indian leaders he coordinates have visions of planting tens of thousands of churches each! John Bond is a pastor in Australia. He has such a vision for expanding Christ’s kingdom that his church gives him four months each year to travel throughout the south Pacific to encourage and build up churches. Hendrick Vorster is a talented Christian leader originally from South Africa now living in Australia. He is a recognized expert in Church Growth with contacts around the world.

As you pray for me, I wish you would include Jay, John, and Hendrik in your prayers. These three men are constantly seeking ways to mobilize the church to shatter obstacles to Christ’s church, to train more Christian leaders, and to shine the light of Jesus’ love into the dark corners of the world. These are the people in Asia and Oceana with whom I work most closely to respond when Christians there feel, “I know God’s calling me to plant a church, but I don’t know how.”

In Bangkok, Chris McKinney and R. Jayakumar commissioned Arnold Pasion as Master Trainer for the Philippines.

While you’re at it, pray that God can raise up such a leader in China, and in South Korea, and in Southeast Asia. Our vision of equipping leaders to plant 5 million churches to reach the world for Christ isn’t really our vision—it’s God’s vision, shared with the leaders of DCPI, shared with pastors in Australia, shared with a Christian leader in India, shared with Christians across America—and ultimately, necessarily, shared with church planter after church planter around the world. Thanks for caring!
