Order of the Mustard Seed

For the last year Renée has been in training as a sort of intern with The Order of the Mustard Seed (OMS), the group behind the 24-7 prayer movement that has swept the globe the last 25 years. This week I’ll be accompanying Renée to Germany for the commissioning of new order members, their annual gathering, and a prayer retreat. This is not a career change for her. It’s a fresh commitment to six practices: prayer, creativity, justice & mercy, learning, mission, and hospitality. Renée already practices all of these, but her officially joining this profound group will strengthen and encourage us both. We’ll also be spending time there investing in some other key Navigator leaders who are also members of the OMS. Please pray with us: Lord of the Harvest, may the planting of this small seed of Renée’s faith & commitment yield disproportionate fruit through her in the years ahead. 

Pray First!

P.S. Our trip to Holland was fruitful. We’ve received messages since returning describing how the 100 ministry leaders and laborers who gathered were inspired. In fact, we were inspired by them with their earnest hearts and sincere questions. Thanks for praying! Here’s a link to 5 photo glimpses of our time there: Photos.
