Have you experienced a season of answers to prayers long prayed? In the Central Region we are in a season like this.

Over a meal our Central Region leadership team shared why they are praising God. One after another the team members shared answers to prayers they have been praying for many years: an alumni saying yes to serve at a campus in Iowa we have been praying for staff to be raised up for ten years, Latino ministry starting in Missouri and at a new school in Omaha that we have been interceding for years to start, and new partners raised for a staff who has been chronically underfunded.

What is particularly remarkable for us is that we have intentionally taken a one year break (fallow year) in setting regional goals to see what God develops. In response we are seeing the fruit of long prayers being answered. Praise God with us for hearing and responding!
