Monthly Prayer Calendar SEPTEMBER 2015
Greetings,
As summer comes to a close, we think of all that has happened here at FAME and around the world the last few months. We also think of you and know that your prayers helped in making all these things possible.
Just to give you a brief overview of the last few months, we had short term medical mission teams go to Brazil and India, FAME staff went to Myanmar to teach Community Health Evangelism (CHE) Vision Seminars, shipping containers of medical supplies were sent to Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Uganda, dozens of new volunteers came and served, we attended the North American Christian Convention (NACC), where we were blessed to meet some of you, and over $10,000 has been received and sent to Myanmar for flood relief. To God be the glory!
This month we ask for special prayers for FAME staff and their travels, both here in the United States and abroad; local free clinics in the Indianapolis area we are blessed to have as partners; and another short term medical mission team traveling to the Dominican Republic to serve with Del Corazon de Jesucristo in El Catey, Dominican Republic.
The team going to the Dominican will be led by Lonnie Burley, FAME’s Director of Short-Term trips. This team will be partnering with Dr. Steve and Julie Dorsey and will be participating in 5-6 medical camps in remote villages, as well as at the clinic in El Catey.
Please also pray for two upcoming events that will be taking place later this fall. FAME’s Night of Hope Annual Gala will be held October 23 in Carmel, IN. For information about tickets to the event, or to see how you can be involved, visit www.fameworld.org/night-of-hope/. The second event taking place in October is a FAME sponsored CHE TOT1 class. CHE (Community Health Evangelism) is a true best practices model integrating evangelism and discipleship with community based development. The TOT 1 (Trainer of Trainers 1) phase of training is aimed at understanding the Biblical basis for CHE and basic principles of wholistic community based development. Participants learn steps for implementation, how to choose a target community, and strategies for entering the community. If you would like more information about this CHE training class, please contact Lonnie Burley at LBurley@fameworld.org , or visit www.fameworld.org/community-health-evangelism-che/.
Again, thank you so much for your continued partnership with the ministry of FAME through prayer. You are a blessing!
