This week we pray for the many organizations and individuals that work with Chinese people globally (some focusing on China and others with Chinese people abroad). 

We ask for prayer for China Partnership as we move forward with several initiatives and new systems. CP recently incorporated in November 2015 and two weeks we ago received our 501(c)(3) designation, for which we are very grateful! As we have much to be thankful for, we also ask for prayer for wisdom concerning stewardship of all God has given us.  

Pray for CP: 

– Praise the Lord for our recent 501(c)(3) designation!

– Wisdom as we begin a fundraising initiative to raise up our First 100 individual donors.

– For our training and coaching of Chinese pastors and church leaders to be gospel and grace centered.

– For CP staff to have wisdom and discernment. 2016 is a foundational year as we put into place new organizational processes that will enhance our work in the years to come.

– For several CP full-time and part-time staff who are in different seasons of transition – that we would walk by faith and trust in the Lord’s care and provision.

Pray for Others Ministering to Chinese: 

– For individuals living in China ministering to Chinese people. For their protection, greater language aptitude, and the humility to walk faithfully with others.

– For organizations working with the Chinese church to have wisdom and discernment in their programs and initiatives.

– For churches and individuals worldwide who seek to reach Chinese people working or studying abroad. Pray that they would grow in their hospitality and in reliance on the Holy Spirit for the right words in conversation.
