MISSIONARY

Prayer Requests for Week Commencing: 01- 10 - 12

 

The following information comes mainly from the Echoes weekly prayer bulletin and further details can be found on their web site. Other prayer requests have come from direct communication with the missionary involved.  The prayer requests listed here are, as far as is sensibly practical, for activities that are happening on the particular week. A list of previous weekly Missionary Prayer requests can be found here.

The Assembly also, most months, publishes a monthly Missionary Prayer Newsletter, for prayer requests on a longer time-scale. Click here for the last monthly prayer newsletter.

Andrew and Gillian Shanks (Newcastle West) - Andy reports on the Gospel stand at the Ploughing Championships in New Ross, Co Wexford:  34 believers from all over Ireland and one brother from Wales helped at the stand and during the three days 187,000 people attended the show.  Almost all the literature and gospel CDs were given away and there were many good conversations with people from all over the country, and about 60 Bibles were distributed. Please pray for those who received the literature, Bibles and CDs, that they will read, listen and be challenged by the content.
