1. 1. Continuing Steadfastly in Intercession
      The brothers encourage all the saints to continue to pray steadfastly for the Lord’s move on the earth:”Whether in our estimation we succeeded or failed in our prayer over the past thirty days, we need to press on and advance from this point forward. We strongly encourage all the saints to take the thirty suggested prayer burdens on unceasinglypray.org and pray over them again during the month of May.” Read the complete letter from the co-workers in the Lord’s recovery at https://unceasinglypray.org/letter/. The saints who have not signed up previously still can sign up in the above website to receive a daily email with a prayer burden and a short paragraph of the ministry excerpt.
   2. Memorial Day Conference – Online
      The church in Fremont will join other localities in Northern California and the Northwest to participate in the conference. For each language, we will have a designated Zoom meeting for the saints to join to watch the conference message. After each message, the saints will be arranged into breakout sessions (likely 50 or less in a group) where they can overflow their enjoyment of the messages to one another and blend with other saints.
      
      We request the saints to sign up for the upcoming conference using the following form, which is very easy to fill out: https://bit.ly/2X89Wv9
      
      Note that signing up on the form is NOT a requirement to join the conference, nor will the saints be required or assigned to prophesy or share if they sign up. The saints’ registration information, however, will give the brothers more data to plan accordingly and communicate with them any timely updates and additional information.
      
      Below is the meeting schedule:
      Message 1: 5/22 (Fri) 7:00 pm
      Message 2: 5/23 (Sat) 10:00 am
      Message 3: 5/23 (Sat) 7:00 pm
      Message 4: 5/24 (LD) 10:00 am
      Message 5: 5/24 (LD) 7:00 pm
      Message 6: 5/25 (Mon) 10:00 am
      
      Since the topic of the conference will be on the world situation and the Lord’s recovery, we encourage the saints to read the following two books prior to the conference:
      • The World Situation and God’s Move:
        (available at https://www.ministrybooks.org/books.cfm? xid=O6E7QZT2TZRQH)
      • The World Situation and the Direction of the Lord’s Move:
        (available at https://www.ministrybooks.org/books.cfm?x id=3659BMVJ4YJLG)
   3. “Family Time” for Families with Children
      https://TheBibleTellsMeSo.com is a website maintained by the saints and will post videos, called “Family Time”, at 4:00pm every day from Monday to Friday for 5 weeks, starting 3/30. Each episode features Bible verses, crafts, stories, greetings from families from all over the world, and activities that can be done at home for children and parents together. You may call in to leave a voice message or share photos of children with their craft, which may be featured in a future episode.
      
      Besides Family Time, the website also hosts many useful materials for families who are looking for biblical, faith-based stories, songs, and activities. You can follow them on Facebook or at Twitter @TheBibleTMS.

   8. Semiannual Summer Training:
      Due to the continued spread of COVID-19 and the likelihood that various government mandates regulating and restricting public gatherings will be extended, Living Stream Ministry has decided that the June 2020 Semiannual Training will not be held corporately as a live training in Anaheim, CA. Instead, the churches will be able to participate in the June 2020 Semiannual Training by video training only. More information about how to participate in the video training will be shared to all the saints later.
