Anderson Update: 09/08

September quarter - great launch!

On Monday this past week ProMETA began the third quarter of 2008. With a record number of students (36) in 12 countries, the virtual classes opened successfully! We've never had this large of a number of students in one quarter so this is wonderful. (A significant detail - we did not put out any advance invitation to prospective students nor to those who were currently enrolled in classes - this is something we normally do. God brought the students to us.) In the picture you see the ProMETA staff interceding for the 36 students, the five mentors - the Biblical Worldview course is being "team" mentored by Dr. Fernández and a very capable and gifted Spaniard. We pray that the course will eventully be mentored by him and Dr. Fernández move on to developing other courses. Thanks for praying, and keep it up!!

Current Prayer Requests

We've begun the 1st quarter of 2016 with 47 students. This is 8 students less than our goal of 55, but we are thankful to God for those he has brought to us. Pray for these men and women as they grow in skills and knowledge through ProMETA's accessible education. Our goal is spiritual transformation that impacts families, churches, and communities.
Pray for Judy as she ministers two hours a day four days a week to elementary students in a local Christian school. This is a great local ministry that is blessed by her experience and passion.
Pray for Keith and his busy travel schedule these next three months. Trips to Texas, Turkey Costa Rica (twice) and New York are on the schedule.
Pray for the Latin American movement leaders who are meeting with our Reachglobal area leaders for organizational movement training. This is done on a monthly basis on Skype and once a year face to face. (More about this later.)
Pray for the many ProMETA staff who are facing health issues. Two have recently had back surgery. Another will be having an MRI on his spinal column.
Pray for our Reachglobal mission as we stay the course this year. Our top two directors have resigned and we will be prayerfully searching for their replacements.
Pray for about a fourth of the ProMETA students who need scholarship help in order to enroll in ProMETA.
Pray for the students who are finishing their programs and will be graduating this year. We praise God for all that He has done in their lives.
