At the beginning of October, the Keystone Project launched a second US team in Portland, Oregon.  Three of our Houston team members have joined the Portland team for varying amounts of time.  Jacob Hundt has been there for the past two months and will be returning to Houston in December.  Hannah Brougher is with the Portland team for a period of six months and is planning to reassess in May where the Lord is calling her to minister. Erik House also moved onto the Portland team for an indefinite amount of time.

Since arriving on site in the second week of October, the Portland team has been working diligently to make connections with their neighbors - families from Nepal, Bhutan, Burma, the Middle East, various South American countries, and Americans alike.  Since it has been cold and rainy most people stay in their homes, so the team has been going from house to house, sharing the gospel, praying for people, and calling them to the disciple-making vision. 

Most of the team is committed for short term, acting as a launch team with a goal of raising up others to take their place for the long haul.

·         Please pray for them to find the people of peace that God has already prepared to continue the work there.

·         Many of their current contacts are Burmese Muslim families, some of whom are seriously considering Christ.

·         Pray for supernatural evidence of the truth of the gospel – dreams, visions, opportunities for healing, etc.

·         Pray for the spiritual protection of the disciples the Houston team members have left behind, as our team continues to work with them, that they will keep growing in relationship with and obedience to Christ.

For specifics on their disciples, review "Our Disciples" posts from the past few months. 

Note: the Muslim family that Erik was working with in Houston moved just before he left for Portland. Also, Hannah had another disciple named Dominique, high school senior from Mexico, who is currently being discipled by another Houston team member.
