The ILI vision is catching fire here as we are midway through the second day. Faces that registered an element of skepticism at the very beginning are opening to the truth of the teaching and the excitement of shared vision for God's Kingdom. The amazing mix of nationalities contributes greatly to the liveliness of the group, especially with the Africans inspiring us to greater freedom in worship!

When Andrey was teaching last night on Passion for the Harvest, he asked each table to discuss a Kingdom cause/vision that we could pray for as a group, and this was powerful. The fellowship times are precious and I feel so privileged even at this early stage in the conference to be able to begin mentoring some of these amazing and anointed young leaders.

History Makers Southern Ukraine just wrapped up Day 2. Ruslan Asadov, from Russia, and David Hull, from England, did a superb job of teaching and launching vision today for our students. We were able to celebrate with HM Spain that national leaders were teaching on Launching the Vision at the same time. What was muddled and confusing early on became clear with God’s purpose and power by the end of our teaching time. Prayer Triads were formed today as well and already we see “divine connections” have been made and meaningful prayer is forthcoming. Our worship peaked tonight with a calm but convicting visitation from the Holy Spirit which propelled us into a time of prayer with our triads that, nearly 2.5 hours later, continue for some. It has been a blessed day in many ways but we anticipate even more to come on Wednesday and the rest of the week as well.
