• "No matter where around the globe we find
  expressions of the body of Christ, the critical
  need is for leadership ...leadership that is
  godly, gifted, bible-centered, and willing to
  sacrificially lay down its life for the bride of
  Christ.
• Many of the concepts that you will be grappling
  with during your time together are absolutely
  essential in becoming such desperately needed
  leaders.

• So I will be praying two things for you during
  your retreat First, that the Spirit of God would
  invade your space and your gathering, and that He
  would anoint all your considerations with a
  profound sense of holy presence. That you would
  experience an outpouring of spiritual power and
  reality from on high that would supernaturally
  energize all the leadership concepts and insights
  that each of you wrestle with. Secondly, that God
  would give you greater clarity and hence passion,
  to be the type of leaders needed for such a time
  as this in Singapore and beyond.
• May the Lord, by his Spirit, make it so."
• Dr. Sam Metcalf
• President, CRM-US

Purposes for the Weekend

• Eph. 3.16 I pray that from his glorious,
  unlimited resources he will empower you with
  inner strength through his Spirit. 17 Then
  Christ will make his home in your hearts as you
  trust in him. Your roots will grow down into
  Gods love and keep you strong. 18 And may you
  have the power to understand, as all Gods people
  should, how wide, how long, how high, and how
  deep his love is. 19 May you experience the love
  of Christ, though it is too great to understand
  fully. Then you will be made complete with all
  the fullness of life and power that comes from
  God.
• Eph. 3.20   Now all glory to God, who is able,
  through his mighty power at work within us, to
  accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or
  think. 21 Glory to him in the church and in
  Christ Jesus through all generations forever and
  ever! Amen.
