Prayer for "The Greatest Journey" Discipleship

The "Operation Christmas Child" ministry continues even after Christmastime! 
The children who received shoebox at evangelism events are invited to "The Greatest Journey": a 13-week discipleship program at their local churches to learn more about Jesus through the Bible. 

This discipleship needs PRAYER!! 
Most families happily send their children to Christmas party events for them to receive gifts, but then adamantly deny their children permission to attend a weekly Bible lesson at a Christian church.  Only the Holy Spirit can work to open doors for the Bible, and transformation
in the children and their families. 

The 70 participating local churches in our state of Tlaxcala joined together for united prayer for this discipleship: for the children, their families, the Bible teachers, the churches, the communities, the Samaritan´s Purse organization and leaders, and more.

After our prayer session, we gave the churches the opportunity to share testimonies of the Lord´s work in their discipleship programs so far this season: and our mouths were left open!  Stories of a man healed when a Greatest Journey teacher prayed, of children who received shoeboxes and
the Gospel on the street who are now faithful participants in the discipleship, of a church who had zero students attend the second lesson but then prayed and prayed and now have 15 students attending.... now we wait to hear more miracles in answer to our prayer for the remainder of the season.
