TeenStreet Back with Metamorphosis!

PETALING JAYA, 16 June, 2006:

OMTeenStreet returns this December 9 - 14, 2006 at Mantin, Negeri Sembilan with “Metamorphosis” led by Dan & Suzie Potter, OM Youth Specialists.

“We believe that God is seeking to transform us from ugly, self-consuming caterpillars, whose desires are totally focused on ourselves, to the flight of the butterfly. This involves going against the gravitational pull of this world and takes a total transformation of our mind, body and spirit by God. He is challenging us to experience His original plan for us – LOVE, and is saying, ‘Come fly with me’,” says Dan Potter.

“At TeenStreet we aim to motivate and equip teenagers to have a real relationship with Jesus and reflect Him in their world. We’ve created an interactive teaching programme with loads of fun, thinking and feeling for the youth,” adds Suzie Potter.

Specially developed for young people (13-17 years old) who want to live as Christians, TeenStreet is a jam-packed week of powerful Bible teaching, contemporary worship, hands-on activities and vital Christian community. It takes place on an annual basis and has impacted and discipled over 20,000 teenagers across Europe, Brazil, Uruguay, Czechoslovakia, India and Malaysia.

Leading this ministry are its founders, Dan & Suzie Potter from the USA who love hanging out with various tribes of young people all over the world and are therefore no strangers to teens. They have worked with Operation Mobilisation since 1988 and have been Programme Directors of TeenStreet for the past 14 years. The Potters are experienced communicators and unique entertainers, blending several art forms such as illusion, pantomime and comedy to communicate hope creatively to a generation who base their “hope” on what they see and experience.

TeenStreet Malaysia is a partnership of the local church and OM Malaysia, an interdenominational mission agency dedicated to fulfilling the Great Commission and training disciples towards that end. Don’t miss this opportunity to participate in TeenStreet Malaysia 2006!

Yes! I Want To Pray For TeenStreet2006

PRAISE God

¨ For the opportunity to work again with Malaysian Christian youth.

¨ Kolej Tunku Jaafar is the confirmed venue.

PRAY for TeenStreet

· Our goal and prayer is to see about 300 teenagers & 100 odd Coaches, Service team and other leaders attend TeenStreet Malaysia this year.

· Pray that God will continue to supply our financial needs which is expected to cost around RM175,802. This is due to the huge camp subsidies for the youth, bringing in a team of youth specialists from the USA, teaching materials and tools for creative ministry purposes.

· Pray for increased manpower – Coaches, Service Team members, Ministry & Management personnel.

· Pray for preparations for a TeenStreet Reunion on Doulos on 22 July. Pray the teens will have a great time and remember TeenStreet 2005 lessons about “Love God, Love People”.

PRAY for Dan & Suzie Potter

· God will prepare their hearts and sustain them as they run TeenStreet Germany in August and Youth Workers’ Training. Dan was ill earlier this year so pray for continued good health.

¨ Dan & Suzie will have new ideas and other creative methods of connecting with the teens.

PRAY for TeenStreet Committee

· Pray for God’s ideas, wisdom, strength and protection for the committee, continual good working relations and unity. Pray especially for strength and good time management as the members attend to other life and ministry responsibilities.

¨ Details of the programme, people and logistics e.g. accommodation, music, transport, trainers, service teams etc will be worked out in due time.

PRAY for the Teens

· God will move the hearts of many teenagers and call them to TeenStreet 2006. May they have a real personal friendship with Jesus and impact Malaysia and beyond.

· Church and family members will be supportive and encourage their teens to attend. Publicity materials are targeted for circulation in early July.

¨ Pray for Teens In Mission from 22 – 23 July, for teens to experience life, ministry and learning on Doulos. We hope participants from TeenStreet 2005 especially will benefit from this short term mission opportunity.
