From Live Dead team leader, Scott Hanson: Over the last couple of weeks there has been a remarkable improvement in Megan’s wrist. We know that God is touching her. The pain is almost completely gone and she is slowly building up her range of motion. As the pain has diminished the twinkle has returned to […]
Region: Africa
First marriage proposal
From team members with a newborn: A few days ago my wife and I brought our six-week-old baby boy to the land to which God has called us to serve. A land overrun with malaria, rich in sweat and hardship, teeming with rats, mosquitoes, cockroaches, bats bigger than our son—and full of unreached people. Neighbors […]
Secret but not so secret
Encouraging news from a team leader: We are excited to share about several underground gatherings in our country, secret but not so secret that those who are seeking the truth aren’t able to come. Imagine a home that consists of hand-made mud bricks with an enclosing wall surrounding the home to form a courtyard, 110 […]
Into Madagascar rainforest
From Live Dead team leader Scott Hanson: Tomorrow some colleagues and I head out on a 10 day trip to Madagascar. We are going to be visiting the southeastern rainforest where the Antaisaka people live. It should be quite an adventure complete with flying on small aircraft, driving on muddy 4-wheel drive paths and finally […]

Eternal life and death depends
A team member is grateful for your prayer while they traveled to their new country: We sensed God’s help through the long hours of travel to here. Within a couple days my husband fully recovered from whatever had caused his sickness. Mornings come early in what my son calls, “our new world” with a neighborhood […]
Even the most difficult
From a team member: In certain countries to be anything but a M*sl_m ultimately means death. However, this does not mean our task is impossible. I traveled with a worker who works among a warlike I3lamic people. A few weeks before I went, a tribal leader had a dream in which Jesus appeared. That leader […]
Strength for those who remain
A team leader prays to return: The number of workers deported from our country is growing. Generally speaking, the worst that happens to a foreigner is being deported but it can be life-threatening for friends born there. Almost all the platforms our teams operate have been closed and we learned many vehicles including our van […]
High price of following
A team leader requests prayer for friends. A family who left the majority religion to follow our Lord left their home country some months ago to escape persecution in their homeland. Recently their teenage son was kidnapped on the way to school. The kidnappers took their son back to the country of his birth with […]
