North Platte Berean Church
Prayer's Priority
In this single-week message, Ted and Judy Olsen lead the NPBC body to understand the power of God that can be accessed through prayer. Beginning this week, we're inviting the Body to join together in a 12 Weeks of Summer Praying Walking Experience. Each week we'll have a new prayer emphasis as we walk around Lincoln County and pray for our community!

Ted & Judy Olsen
Ted and Judy are international missionaries serving with Global Fellowship. Their primary focus is in South Asia – India and Nepal – where they work with national teams to bring the Gospel to caste-defined cultures that have never heard of Jesus. They also seek to plant churches in these groups. They have two sons and 12 grandchildren.

The Work in India & Nepal
Remoteness is both a challenge – and a blessing
Prayer is key to responsiveness
A loving attitude is disarming
The Power of God is a very significant factor in conversions
A Hindu priest comes to Christ
The touch of Christ impacts communities
Total impact on smaller UUPGs
New converts are readily baptized
New disciples love informal church
Small congregations meet in halls and small churches where possible
Bankhariya grateful for “church”
BUT … Persecution is increasing!
