PRAYER POINTS

Please pray for those within our church family who are sick and suffering.

GOSPEL GLEANING PRAYER POINTERS
  • Pray for the 12 Church Planters working among the Erukula people. They regularly encounter persons and families in situations that challenge them. What should they do? Pray that Psalm 119:33 will be lived out in their lives and ministries. Here's what it says: Teach me, O Lord, the way of Your statutes, And I will observe it to the end. The Holy Spirit leads them into such situations. His intention is to teach them the way of His statutes in very real and practical scenarios. May they learn and apply it to the utmost! As we come into situations that challenge us, may such be true for us as well.
  • Praise God for the Chad and Niger Christians who have a strong desire to reach into unreached people groups. During this month of Ramadan pray especially for those trained by Global Disciples who will be heading into neighboring countries to the north. Specific prayer is requested for regional leaders Daniel and Barnabas as they travel into dangerous areas where there is strong persecution of Christians.
