CTI establishes "World Partners" regular giving program
Interested in helping to sustain CTI's international music ministry? Interested in investing in the lives of young Christian musicians? CTI Music Ministries is pleased to offer a brand new monthly giving program, "World Partners".
Our World Partners help give us the financial stability we need to continue our mission in a world of rising costs. They invest in the spiritual formation of young Christian musicians who will impact the world for Christ for many years to come. We desire for this group of givers to grow into a community of closely connected prayer partners centered around CTI's mission.
World Partners enjoy a front seat to the mission of CTI through monthly ministry updates included with giving reminders or statements. They can be confident that their hard earned money is being put to good use because each ministry update will outline how their "World Partner" gifts are making a difference through God’s work in CTI.
Enrolling in World Partners is easy now that online giving is in place! Yes, that’s right, we now offer easy and secure online giving for those who want to contribute regularly as a World Partner or give a one time gift to the ministry.
To become a World Partner, visit www.ctimusic.org or email CTI's development director, JoeVanderArk, at joe@ctimusic.org. He’ll be happy to answer your questions regarding World Partners or other giving inquiries.

Teams report safe arrivals overseas
We've heard from both teams this morning via e-mail, and all is well!
Please pray for 1422 in Taiwan as they adjust to a 13-hour time difference (!) and for 1421 in Bolivia, which, though only two hours ahead of Minnesota, required about 24 total hours of travel to reach. Also, the capitol city of La Paz is at 12,000 feet in elevation, so pray that the team is able to rest and overcome the altitude sickness and weariness that accompanies it.

Teams depart for international ministry
Both of our fulltime teams departed Minneapolis this morning for a month of international ministry in Asia and South America.
14:22 will be spending four weeks helping Youth With a Mission (YWAM) spread the Gospel through school appearances, street shows and relational "coffee-house" ministry in Danshui (Taipei), Taiwan.
14:21 will spend the month partnering with the Youth for Christ International (YFCI) charter in Bolivia as they seek to expand their evangelism and discipleship efforts in the capitol city of La Paz, and and increase YFC exposure in the cities of Cochabamba and Oruro.
As always, we value your prayers for CTI and our ministry partners worldwide as we mobilize these 14 "musicianaries" into this next component of their year on the field with us.

CTI announces Fall 06 international ministry locations
We have just this week formalized plans to send our two fulltime teams to minister internationally this fall.
14:21 will be working with Youth for Christ (YFC) in Bolivia through school presentations, open air plaza evangelism, helping some local Bolivian worship bands develop their abilities as "lead worshipers" and possibly opening for a few other bands in concert settings. The team will be working in the capitol city of La Paz as well as the outlying cities of Oruro and Cochabamba- places where YFC either has a presence and wishes to increase their exposure, or desires to break new ground.
14:22 will be continuing our recently developed partnership with Youth With a Mission (YWAM) in Taipei, Taiwan- a strategic partnership involving both a commitment to the lost and a passion to see young people released into ministry. This will be the third CTI team to join the YWAM mission in the region.
Both teams will depart from Minnesota on November 16 and will return on December 13th. Please pray for our teams and our partners as they prepare for these month-long outreaches!
