Prayer Update - 15 November 2011

God is good! Things continue to move forward very rapidly with all things Distant Shores Media and the Door43 project. Here's what we are praying for and thanking God for:

• The Christian Community Fair in Minneapolis this past weekend was a huge success. We had a booth there and met many people who are now part of the DSM/Door43 team - praying for open doors for the ministry and helping spread the word!
• Board meetings were also this past weekend. It is always encouraging to meet with the godly men who help direct this organization. Please pray for continued wisdom as we seek to discern God's leading and move forward with the opportunities before us.
• 500@30 - The "500@30 - A dollar a day for the global church" fund-raising campaign is off to a good start! We are thankful for a number of new donors and plan to get the actual numbers updated on the support page updated very soon. Please pray that God would raise up more people and churches to help make the "free + freedom" vision a reality by financially supporting DSM and the Door43 project.
• Door43 development - We need help from web programmers who can help write some simple utilities that will set up some of the templates and configurations needed in Door43 to improve things like navigation between Bible references. Please pray for more web programmers who can spare some time to help out!
• Open Bible Stories - We are making progress on the Open Bible Stories project and the new beta video of "The Compassionate Father" is now online! Please pray for the story-writing team and the video creation team - that we would be able to finish the stories in English very soon. Then we need people to help translate into other languages too!
