Happy beginning of Advent!
Lots to look forward to on so many levels. This week, can you please pray for:
- an increase in God’s provision of resources: spiritually, financially, emotionally, mentally…any way possible would be great.
- the team members He has already planned to send out in 2010: for their application process (apps due Dec 7…we’ll need to be discerning about that deadline)
- team dynamics among our staff: not that we don’t enjoy each other! but want to keep refining and improving how we reflect God as a community for His glory. definitely grateful for their fellowship in this!
Thanks so much! Have a great week!
Worship Foundations International is inspired by Ezra 3.10-11. When the foundation of the temple had been laid, all the people couldn’t help but stop to praise God with everything they had.
Nehemiah was a contemporary of Ezra. He had the privilege of building the wall that surrounded Jerusalem and the temple of the Lord. Nehemiah and his team weren’t priests or ordained ministers; they were faithful worshipers of the Lord Almighty. They fearlessly honored Him by both building the work and defending it (Nehemiah 4.13-14).
Thank you for being a part of my Team Nehemiah. Because you fearlessly build this work by giving and defend it with your prayer, I am freed spiritually and materially to pour more of my life into mobilizing more and more musicians to become more and more like Jesus.
Where we stand today: 60 people! Only 940 more to go...
Team Nehemiah trusts in the God of Isaiah 60.22 to multiply each person by 1000. Whether measured by senders, goers, or new disciples, our currency is lives, not dollars. Our first goal toward that is to multiply the efforts of my role by 1000 people who are
- building Global Impact with their gifts and
- defending Global Impact with their prayers.
We don’t just want to gather a crowd; we want to build His army. Besides giving and praying, please encourage like-minded others to join! Even a gift of $5/month or $60/year is helpful, but far more precious than that are your prayers. If your church, fellowship, or small group would like to band together to lend support, let me know. We’ll work together to get you some basic information or set up an appointment for me to come and share the vision. Regardless of our economy, the Kingdom of God is immune to recession when we combine forces for His purposes.
Giving is not a requirement to pray. If you'd like to pray alongside us by receiving these updates directly in your email, just fill out the form below. Once you register, you can log in to adjust your settings. I won't use any contact information provided here for any purpose other than to ask for your continued spiritual fellowship with me in my role as Global Impact coordinator...not even to give to WFI in general! (I honestly don't have time to figure out other things to do with your info, anyway!)
How to subscribe
By using this form below, you will automatically be subscribed to both monthly ministry updates (more detailed-once a month) and weekly prayer requests (bullet points-once a week, excluding update weeks). They'll magically appear in your email inbox whenever I post them, and you can expect at most about one email per week, if I'm on schedule.
If you'd like more control over what you want to receive (i.e. just one or the other), you'll need to register, then log in to your profile to adjust your subscriptions.
Invite a friend!
If you know of someone who might be interested in what WFI is doing through Global Impact, feel free to forward this to them. Please add your own personal note so they won't think I'm spamming them!

Definitely a case of "the more, the merrier!" This task is far bigger than I am. While God can do anything, He delights in using His people. If you would like to lend your time, experience, and energy to
- a networking team (lots of facebooking involved)
or
- an events team (includes both vision sharing and ministry time)
please let me know! For more details, click here. Contact links are below. Thanks!
Not mine...yours! It really is a privilege and honor for me to be involved through prayer with what God is doing in you. Just click on any of the links below to start a conversation!

To give online
Go to the WFI donation page and select Josie Leung from the dropdown menu to designate a gift to my support account.
We apologize we are not able to handle automatic transfers at this time due to the processing charges. If you would like to make regular gifts automatically, we encourage you to set up a recurring payment through your bank to Worship Foundations International. That way, we can all steer clear of processing charges. As a token of our appreciation for helping us this way, we won't be asking you for any of your personal banking info. ;) Thank you for understanding!
