Prayer Update - 27 September 2011

Praise the Lord! We have begun the process of transitioning the Door43 project to a more capable and robust server. This involves a lot of configuration, testing, planning and prayer - many of the decisions we make now will have significant impact on the future of the project and how effectively it is able to support the creation of discipleship resources in every language.

• Please pray for God's grace and wisdom as the systems administration team works through this process. We want to move as quickly as possible but need to plan things well. Thank you for praying with us for a smooth transition to the new setup.
• Please pray for God's provision to expand the DSM team - Two volunteers have expressed interest in leaving their current employment and joining Distant Shores Media full time within the next few months. We could really use their help and are asking God to raise up people who will help provide the financial resources to enable us to bring them on. Please pray that God will bring this to pass in His time!
• We are starting to think through the possibility of putting together a "concurrent editing" feature in Door43. This would enable people all over the world to work together on the same page in the wiki at the same time. The productivity gain would be significant, especially as we consider how to make it useful for Bible translation teams as well. Please pray that God would raise up developers who have the ability and disposition to make it happen.

We are blessed and excited to see the new things God is doing and the people He is raising up to be part of it. Thank you for praying with us!
