Adrian was joined on the Kaduna
conference by Lee Furney, who
also ran our first full training
conference in Gusau, which is in
Zamfara state in the far North of
Nigeria. It has been very
encouraging to see the enthusiasm
with which the churches in Gusau
have seized this opportunity for
training.

Rick & Alanna Creighton will be visiting Gusau towards the end of January to run a training
conference for congregation members (in the evenings) and for evangelists and clergy
(during the mornings). They will be joined by Chris White for the first week.
Please pray for these conferences, that the
Evangelists and the trainers would have a
great time of learning together from the word
of God. Please also pray for safe travel all who
come to the conferences, and for the work of
preparation which needs to be done in
advance, both in planning lectures and
logistics.
Other news
The BTP Steering Group (Rick Creighton, David Huss & Adrian Watts) will be meeting on 18

review and to plan the work of the BTP. Please join us in praying for this meeting, that we would have
wisdom to know how best to use the opportunities God is giving us.
We will be looking ahead to the planned training conferences in January and August 2007. Please pray that
we would find team members for August, so that we will be able fully to 'staff' these training events.
We will also be considering ways of supporting students who are in financial or other practical difficulty.
Please pray for wisdom in this area.
Getting in touch
We'd love to hear from you! We'd especially like to hear if:
You or someone you know could join us as a trainer on one of our conferences in Nigeria.
You or your church would like more information about the work of BTP and how you can support it by prayer
or financial giving.
You have any feedback on how these News & Prayer letters can be improved.
