Some of you know of our past involvement in outreaches during Olympic style events. For the upcoming Asian Games, September 19-October 4 in Incheon, Korea we have played a rather small role, working with brethren who have organized an outreach. It is such a joy to see others step in and take up the opportunity to reach out to the athletes and coaching staff.

Especially the Asian Games is such an opportunity. Of the 45 countries participating in the games, nearly 40 of them are countries where a traditional approach to missions is not possible. 13,000 athletes, coaches and staff from these countries will be participating.

Of course, prayer is essential. We would like to make you aware of at least two initiatives aimed at equipping you to be able to pray specifically for the outreach. Please consider signing up for both of them to get regular updates from the team on the ground in Korea during the games. There will of course be some overlap of information but it will be worth it to get a full picture of what is happening.

Asian Games prayer e-mail list. This is being organized by Mrs. Francis Martin. She is sending great information about the opportunities and will be sending daily updates from the field once things are underway. To subscribe to that e-mail list send an e-mail to this address cecy2302@hotmail.com and ask to be subscribed to the list.

Facebook; Asian Games Prayer page. You should also watch the updates on this page. To make sure you get notice of new info and are able to comment, you should be a friend of the page. Click here: Asian Games Prayer Page

We would like to encourage you to go to these sources for updates and regular prayer requests from the outreach. You will make a significant contribution as you intercede.
