New Campus in Niger
The College of Prayer in Niamey, Niger has planted another campus in Halambare, one of the poorest regions in Niger. They rededicated their hearts before God to ask his forgiveness as the church in the region. All of the intercessors were committed to support the vision of the College of Prayer. Almost 80% of intercessors in Halambare are either children or youth.

College of Prayer in Norway is Thriving
"After visiting both the Stavanger and Tromso campuses in Norway what struck me was how people didn't come to pray for God to meet their needs, they just wanted God! The altar was filled with people who wanted more of Him. Sins were confessed and people were set free from lies about themselves. One day some of us left the meetings and prayed blessing over the city as we walked the streets. People were filled with the Holy Spirit, and leaders were raised up to new levels of operating in the Kingdom. How is that for a prayer meeting!"

College of Prayer - Iraq
In Iraq we were hoping that 50 or 60 would show up; instead 120 participated, including children. Leaders came from eight major cities including Baghdad, Babylon and Mosul (one of the most violent harbors of terrorists), and ten were pastor-leaders representing six different denominations. All of these Christians have been severely persecuted for their faith, but we were overwhelmed at their love for Jesus, their joy for what they have, and their willingness to lay down their lives for Christ.

College of Prayer - Jordan
Stephen and Emily Hartley facilitated an amazing two days of The Furnace, the College of Prayer for the next generation, in Amman, Jordan. That was followed by two wonderful days for the broader body of Christ. The combined attendance for both events was over 250 people representing 5% of all the Christians in Jordan. Leaders from all five of the Jordanian evangelical churches participated as well as representatives from the Anglican Church. Team leaders sensed an unusual undergirding of prayer enabling them to minister under the full measure of the blessing of Christ.
