God is moving in extraordinary ways around the world! This month, we are heading to Ethiopia for the Motus Dei 2026 conference. “Motus Dei” means “movements of God,” which perfectly captures our heartbeat and prayer for the nations.
As many of you know, God has given us a breathtaking vision: to see a vital church or faith community established for every 1,000 people on earth. To help make this a reality, almost 400 leaders from over 125 countries are coming together. We aren’t just going to sit and listen to speakers; we are gathering to collaborate, connect, and solve real-world ministry challenges together to accelerate the fulfillment of the Great Commission.
Our theme for the week is “Vital and Sustainable”:
- Vital: This is about spiritual health. We want to see local faith communities deeply in love with Jesus and committed to reaching others.
- Sustainable: We seek to build movements of spiritual multiplication that actually last. We want the gospel to spread so that the churches we start send out their members to start new churches in their villages or neighborhoods, to four generations and beyond. When everyday believers are empowered to lead, these movements grow beyond our control, fueled entirely by the Holy Spirit.
We desperately need God to move. Times of corporate prayer and fasting are built right into the foundation of this event.
Please pray for:
- Unity and collaboration among the leaders as they gather.
- Safe travels and protection for all attendees, especially in light of the recent fighting happening in the world.
- A fresh wind of the Holy Spirit to launch this next chapter of ministry.
Every financial gift you give, every prayer you ask, every word of encouragement you utter—these are your contribution to what God has called us to do in this ministry.
Thank you for your partnership with us in ministry. None of this happens without you!
