Flying to Norway today! (June 5th)

Andrei grew up on the streets of the former Soviet Union. A YWAM team first introduced him to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ and then continued to pour hope into his life. I met Andrei twelve years ago in the remote forests of Sweden. I was co-leading a survival leadership course called NIKO for students across northern Europe. For three days, I watched the Lord reveal something amazing in Andrei's teen-age life---God was challenging him to become a leader, and he was embracing this calling!
Four years ago I met Andrei again. His gifting of leadership had been developed through years of experience in YWAM. I was teaching the staff of North Europe at one of YWAM's training centers in Norway. He was attending my week-long teaching, learning to find a sponsorship team and God's provision for his young family and ministry. The teen from the streets of the Soviet Union (that I had met in the Swedish forest) was now a husband, father of two daughters, and leader of a dynamic ministry changing the lives of hundreds of teens for the sake of the Cross!
It is because of leaders like Andrei that I am flying back to Norway today (Sat., June 5th). Once again, Michael Berg (my director at YWAM Orlando) and I have been invited to teach about our Father's will to provide for every minister who dares to fulfill His calling on their life. Our host, Terje, tells us that, "[Since you taught in the] Full Support Seminar in 2006, the financial support for YWAMers in Norway increased by 67%. Many have a whole new [financial] support situation and a new freedom to serve God in YWAM!"
Because people like you have been so generous, I have had the resources to confidently share about God's provision and goodness to the next generation of world changers. Together we can train and release this upcoming wave of Andreis and many others like him!

Would you make a special gift of $500, $200 or some other amount to help me train many more like Andrei?
