In the history of the Lord’s recovery, training the young people has always been crucial for the Lord’s move, and this training requires the proper facilities. The Full-time Training in London (FTTL) began in 1997 and currently operates out of the Bower House estate in north-east London. In 2017 an adjacent property, Bower Farm, which was previously part of the original Bower House estate, was purchased. This property consisted of old barns and stables. Having recombined these two properties together, the training center has now become one 17-acre campus.
In recent years, permission was granted to redevelop the barns and stables at Bower Farm into FTTL accommodation and facilities. The new training center would comfortably provide the classrooms, kitchen, study areas, and dining facilities for at least 200 trainees. The space can also be opened up into a single meeting room that can seat close to 1,000 saints. This will be the first meeting space of that size in Europe and will be a great support for the blending of the saints in Europe and a strengthening to the church in London. It sits within the London metropolitan area, one of the largest in Western Europe, with 15 million inhabitants, and is within a commutable distance for over 20 million people, from Oxford in the west to Cambridge in the east.
Importantly and perhaps most strategically, this training center is for the Lord’s move in Europe with the view towards His return. By the Lord’s sovereign arrangement, there is now a direct train ride from Heathrow airport, the busiest airport in London, to this training center, whereby all major cities in Europe may be reached within 1 to 2 hours. We believe the Lord can and will greatly use this training center to raise up European young people to stand as the testimony of Jesus at the end of this age.
Please continue to pray that the Lord will provide the necessary funds and serving ones to carry out the construction to complete this project for the going on of the training. May the Lord gain this facility for the young people in Europe to be trained for His move on the earth.
