Prayer Ministry of the Church in Torrance (7/21/2026)
Upon your walls, O Jerusalem, / I have appointed watchmen; / All day and all night / They will never keep silent. / You who remind Jehovah, / Do not be dumb; And do not give Him quiet / Until He establishes / And until He makes Jerusalem / A praise in the earth. (Isa. 62:6-7)
Thus says Jehovah, / The Holy One of Israel and the One who formed him, / Ask Me about the things to come concerning My sons, / And concerning the work of My hands, command Me. (Isa. 45:11)
Thus says the Lord Jehovah, Moreover for this I will be inquired of by the house of Israel to do it for them; I will increase them with men like a flock. (Ezek. 36:37)
** We suggest that we all read one Life-study message at the prayer meeting every Tuesday night before we begin to pray for the following prayer items. Tonight, let’s read Message #102 of the Life-study of Genesis.

Please pray:
- For the North America Chinese-speaking Perfecting Training:
The training on the West Coast will be held from Wednesday afternoon, July 29, 2025, to Lord’s Day noon, August 2, 2026 at the Fremont Springs Conference Center (FSCC) in Northern California. There will be online video training also. Some Chinese-speaking saints from Torrance will participate in the video training.
Please pray:
- That the saints be poor in spirit and have healthy spiritual appetites.
- That they aspire to be perfected and be open vessels to receive everything the Lord is pouring out in this training.
- That the Lord use this perfecting training to advance His move among the Chinese-speaking saints in North America for the building of the house of God.
- For the follow-up to the 2026 FIFA World Cup Gospel Outreach in the Los Angeles area:
From June 11 to July 19, many saints from Los Angeles areas went out and distributed a total of 1,825 Bibles (1,412 English, 236 Spanish, 177 Korean), 275 Spanish Gospels of John, and 2,654 tracts, resulting in 141 contact requests.
Please pray:
- That each recipient be inspired and reminded to open their New Testament daily and be granted a spirit of wisdom and revelation concerning His divine economy.
- That there may be diligent follow-up with those interested in further fellowship.
- That the Lord may instill in all the saints a heart for the people and may develop in them a gospel living that is “ready in season and out of season” (2 Tim. 4:2).
- For the European Young People and Family Conference (EYPFC):
The annual European Young People and Family Conference (EYPFC) will take place in Male Ciche, Poland, on 26 July through 1 August.
The Junior Conference is on “The All-inclusive Christ”; the Senior Conference is on “The Testimony of God Revealing Himself to His People” as seen in Exodus; and the Family Conference focuses on “Sanctifying Ourselves for the Sake of Our Children and Having the Increase of the Church Also Through the Children.”
Please pray:
- That all the young people love the Lord with a pure heart and be brought to the mountain of God to receive revelation, not only of the law, but of God and what kind of God He is.
- That both young people and children meet potential spiritual companions and broaden their sense of the geographic scope of the Body.
- That many families be enlivened and inspired to live a family life according to God’s economy for His eternal purpose, so that God’s economy may be realized in their family life.
- That the Lord shepherd and strengthen all the serving ones to serve by grace.
- That the enemy be bound and all the saints be preserved in travel and health.
- For the GTCA (Gospelize, Truthize, Churchize America) – California Central Coast:
GTCA has announced the burden for the Lord’s move in the Central Coast area of California between Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo. Saints have been meeting as the churches in both localities for more than 25 years. These cities are home to the UCSB and Cal Poly SLO campuses; each also has a community college. This geographical area spanning roughly 100 miles includes multiple small- to medium-sized cities. In recent months, there have been two conferences for the saints in this area and those burdened for the Lord’s move there.
Please petition the Lord:
- That He would continue preparing the saints in SB and SLO for His move in the Central Coast by their being blended and built up together, and learning together how to move practically as “one church.”
- That He would call, stir, burden, loose, and move inwardly in many saints—singles, couples, and families—whom He has chosen to strengthen this area. The burden is for at least 40 saints to migrate.
- For the Short-term shepherding trips and migrations to French-speaking Europe:
Please pray:
- That the Lord will raise up lampstands in Rouen, Versailles, Esch-sur-Alzette (Luxembourg), Geneva (Switzerland), Marseilles, Caen, Nante, and Montpellier.
- That the Lord will increase the team of full-time serving ones in Paris to take care of the Lord’s needs throughout French-speaking Europe. Please pray for the release of long stay visas for these saints.
- That many students, families, and mature saints will migrate to France within the next several years for the Lord’s interest.
- For the Bibles for America:
The following is from the Bibles for America 2025 Annual Report.
There was a significant rise in Bible orders in the latter half of 2025 and we sense deeply that the Lord is moving in a fresh and powerful way in the United States. We distributed over 205,000 Bibles and 41,000 physical books in this country, while our digital content reached over one million people in 192 countries. We have ordered 525,000 English and 25,000 Spanish Recovery Version NTs for 2026.
In 2025, we made a concerted effort to improve our outreach on social media channels by posting more frequently with content specifically designed for these platforms. Our eyes remain upon the Lord, the One who is on the throne and sovereignly ruling over every situation. We believe that all things are being arranged for the preaching of the gospel of the kingdom, that many might be saved and come to the full knowledge of the truth.
We ask for your continued prayer, fellowship, and practical support.
Pray specifically:
- For the Lord to increase the hunger for His word.
- That many be saved and come to the full knowledge of the truth.
- For more saints to participate in the gospel and truth distribution.
- For the bountiful supply spiritually and practically to all who are involved.
- For the Young People’s Service/Meeting in Torrance:
We should pay particular attention to the young people in our work in each locality. Today Satan’s organizations and philosophies pay particular attention to young people. Can we not infer that God is paying attention to young people as well? This does not mean that the souls of older people are not precious in God’s eyes, but it does mean that for the sake of God’s work and for the future of the gospel, there is more hope with the young people. Our gospel work should place special emphasis on high school and college students. We should spend and pour out our all to save, cultivate, edify, and lead these young ones. (The Collected Works of Watchman Nee, vol. 55, p. 49)
- Please pray that more saints would rise up and take the burden to pray for and shepherd the young people.
- Please pray that our current young people would be properly cared for in life and in truth, so that they may become the loving seekers of Christ in this evil age.
- Please pray that the Lord would bless the YP service and meetings in Torrance to raise up the next generation for His eternal economy.
- For the resumption of the campus work at CSUDH (California State University, Dominguez Hills):
Please pray that the Lord would open a clear and effectual door for the resumption of the campus work at CSUDH, preparing the interceding ones, serving ones, the environment, the administration, and the students’ hearts for His move on the campus.
“Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest that He would thrust out workers into His harvest.” [Matthew 9:38]
- For the saints who have lost their loved ones or are ill forthe sake of His divine interests (The all-inclusive Christ, the Kingdom of God, and the House of God):
Please pray that the Lord, the true Physician, would care for the sick saints and grant them healing through His all-sufficient grace, that they may experience and enjoy more of Christ throughout every medical procedure for His divine interests.
