The GNW has had a big investment in Russia, with summer projects, Stint teams and now with several of our own serving there  as ICS.  The theme of the conference is spiritual multiplication…would you join me in praying for the students who are coming from around the Russian Federation to the conference, that the Holy Spirit will give them a vision for how He wants to multiply their lives?
