Ever since our Central/South America meeting in the Dominican Republic#ampsummit, I have been secretly begging/praying that the Lord would appoint David Platt David Platt Official David Platt Page, author of the New York Times Best Selling Book Radical, as the new President of the International Mission Board (IMB). It has been the secret cry of my heart. Today, I received the answer to my prayer and not only did it increase my faith but it led me to tears. This is a major step for our mission and I am incredibly JOYFUL and PROUD to see where this Man of God is going to lead us in the future. And praise God, for answering a little girl's silent prayers.

Here is the press release:
