Hello, friends!
Here is the long promised introductory e-mail for the Keystone Project Houston Team’s intercessory prayer effort! We are excited to get this started and equally grateful for your willingness to partner with us! God is doing incredible things and you are an important part of it.
Many of you have been praying for different members of our team for quite some time. Thank you for your commitment to labor in prayer for us. If you are just now getting to know us, check out our website: http://www.keystoneproject.org/. Here you’ll find information about the Keystone Project as a whole, our mission and vision, as well as a description of our mission team in Houston.
As we have prayerfully considered goals for this year, we realized a need for a more specific and intense covering in prayer. God is challenging us to pursue Him more and more deeply in five particular areas. In short, these areas are as follows:
1. Leadership Transition – Raising up leaders who will share God’s vision for discipleship.
2. Replacing ourselves – Equipping those leaders to take on the work for their own people to the point that they no longer need us.
3. Long-Term Solutions to "Lift the Curse" – A practical and sustainable means of relieving the poverty of the refugee/immigrant population
4. Launching a Second Team in Houston – We believe God is calling us to send a second team into a different area of the city.
5. Specific and Strategic “Spa” Ministry – We have started the process of going into the two brothels on our street focusing not only on rescuing these women, and men, from their physical and spiritual bondage, but also on discipling them in following God’s heart and vision.
As you can see, we have a lot of ground to cover! We would be foolish to try to do this on our own. That’s where you come in!
You are receiving this message because you have informed a member of our team that you were interested in joining us in this work through prayer and would like to receive more information. If God is calling you to come alongside us, then we are asking you for at least one day a month of intentionally focused prayer for our team and the work that God is doing here in Houston.
Ideally, there would be at least one person doing battle with us through prayer every day. Obviously, the more the merrier!
Our commitment to you is that we will get you the most up to date information possible so that you can pray informed. To do that, we are trying to take advantage of technology that is available to us.
So to get started, please fill out this web form (with only 5 questions) to help us with scheduling by clicking on this link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1ujy3TWhDsqLvK1rjs2jhiG99-uUGW_9NKZFI3EX2ROs/viewform
