Several people have asked about the logo of PreVision Partnership. Designed
by Board member Jan Louie of DesignLogix it conveys...
1. A ministry rooted and grounded in Biblical, historic, orthodox
Christianity reflected in the Christian fish symbol facing left, to the
past
2. A vision of the future reflected in the eye looking right, to the
future
3. The centrality of the Cross of Christ reflected in the central
intersection of the logo
4. A worldwide passion, vision and ministry represented by the
global image
(Faith
Stories, of people who have come to faith in Christ over the years
share their stories, will return in the next issue of PreVision Post.)

I hope you enjoy reading this latest edition of the PreVision
Post. If you can only pray about one thing, please pray for our faith to
increase more than our financial needs! Keep in touch.
Yours, Peter

 Greece...
I just got back from Greece in October from a fabulous
PreVision Biblical Tour-with-a-Purpose. I strongly encourage you to
consider joining us next March for tours of Greece and Israel.
Nancy Sapp, a tour participant says: "...it
was inspiring - a trip of a lifetime. Nothing I have ever done can
compare to it. The New Testament scriptures are now more personal to me.
Walking in the cities of Athens, Corinth, Philippi, Thessalonica, and
Berea where Paul lived, worked, and preached was an incredible experience.
Because of your insightful teaching while at those sites (and while
traveling to them), I see Paul and his ministry in living color - real
and exciting. In addition, it was edifying to meet evangelists who are
now ministering in Greece. They are definitely the "Pauls" of
today. I felt I had gotten my money's worth by the 3rd day and by the 8th
day I was in awe!"

 Recent Ministry...
While in Greece, I
had the awesome privilege of speaking to about 150 Greek young
people at an event hosted by Hellenic Ministries. The picture
above shows the band rehearsing with the Acropolis as a backdrop in the
window behind them! I was also able to meet with a number of church
leaders for fellowship and encouragement.
I continue to spend significant time on
the book I am writing on personal evangelism --- "Hooked on
Fishing". A good book takes long time to write! I have also been
speaking at several churches in the Atlanta area and further afield. The
conference topics I most often speak on are "Rediscovering tghe
Gospel" (helping believers realize afresh the power of the gospel
for joyful living), "Hooked on Fishing (influencing your friends for
Christ --- and enjoying it!) and Christian leadership. Next year,
I am committed to conferences in South Africa, India, China, and Greece,
as well as several Biblical tours.

 Partners NEEDED...
Finances are still
very tight. All donations and honoraria (speaking "fees") go
directly to PreVision Partnership; my salary is paid from donations after
we have paid all overheads, expenses, and administrative costs. At this
point, I am now earning less (with a family to support) than when
Becky and I started in pastoral ministry in 1989! We have
approximately 50 Ministry Founding Partners providing approximately 55%
of the budget. We need to add another 50+ Ministry Founding Partners to
fully support the ministry. Please pray about this need and respond as
the Lord leads you. We are thankful for each and every one of you who
already support us financially.
If you want to underwrite a trip or part of one, please consider my trip
to India (Hyderabad and Nepal) in February to train pastors and hold
evangelistic meetings (this has changed from a Family Life topic). These
costs include travel, expenses, a portion of salary, and scholarships for
pastors and participants.
