ERRC Prayer Requests & Praise Report
August 2014
Summer is one of the busiest times of year for ERRC. We want to pause to thank God for all the things he has accomplished through our ministry:
Praise God:
- CAC, in partnership with Denver Seminary, held the 4th annual Chinese Worldview Today seminar in Beijing in June. We had 11 great students, including 6 seminarians and 2 ERRC long-term teachers.
- ERRC had 24 people in China to participate in our summer teaching programs. They made a big impact with elementary, middle school, high schoool and undergraduate students. Most are home now, but 2 teachers will stay until the end of August.
- CAC partnered with Lakeside Church in Folsom, CA to host 20 teenage students from China & 2 Christian University professors who served as team leaders for J-Life summer English Camp.

Pray with us:
- ERRC is hosting orientation for our new teachers from Aug. 17-27. Pray that they will be prepared for their new teaching assignments this fall.
- Destruction of crosses from church buildings is continuing in Zhejiang province in China. Pray for the strength of Chinese Christians in this circumstance and for their witness for Christ.
- ERRC needs to raise $8000 by the end of August to meet our 2013-2014 budget. Pray for God's provision so that we will be able to end the fiscal year without a deficit.
