Two new schools starting on Thursday

Hey everyone!

Our base here in DC is so excited to run the first Discipleship Training Schools (DTS) since 1989. That means the last time a DTS has been run was before I was born. That is a long time!

We are now moving into our new house, which is called Embassy Church, on Embassy Row. We will have both DTSs (see below) in that building. Embassy Row is home to embassies from every nation on the Earth except for 5 (which America has decided to cut off relations with). It is very humbling to be dwelling in such an influential location, and such an honor I don't feel worthy of. We are also going to be a block away from the National Cathedral. I'll take pictures and make them available next week so you can see too!

As for the DTSs, there are going to be two running simultaneously. One is called the American Sign Language (ASL) DTS, which is for the deaf, to equip them to reach out to the deaf community (I'll probably get to learn sign language during the next few months!!!).

The other is called David's Tent DTS. This school will have a focus on worship and intercession, and for their outreach they will be staying with us in DC to help run David's Tent later this year, and then going to Israel for a few weeks.

While I won't be on full-time staff with these schools, I will be able to support them and offer assistance as needed. I've been asked to spend 1 hour/week teaching Bible Overview, Inductive Method Overview, and Inductive Bible Study through some specific passages

Here are the videos the school leaders made to introduce their schools and invite people to join them. The ASL video is in sign, but is still really cool to watch. Enjoy! Please pray for us!

Where am I, what am I doing and what's my mailing address?

Our nation's capitol building

Hey everyone that is interested!

I just got to Washington, D.C. last Sunday, June 9th. It's now about a week later, and I am thoroughly enjoying this place! There are about 10 staff at the base right now in various roles, with more to arrive soon. There are also two Discipleship Training Schools (DTSs) starting on June 27th (more to come on those next week!)

We are also looking and searching for the locations that we will use for our housing, House of Prayer (HOP), training and office spaces. We are hoping and praying for a location that is safe, affordable and gives us room to grow in the future.

Some people were asking about a mailing address, so here it is:
