Prayer Requests for Week Commencing 04-10-2010

 

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.

 

DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO

Mary Ratter (Katoka) advises that 17 young people were baptised a week ago at a nearby assembly, and 13 evangelists have requested Sunday school material for their villages. Give thanks for these encouragements.

MALAWI

Jonathan and Ruth Newell (Blantyre) and the family have settled back well into life in Malawi. They were delighted that the fellowship at Bethel Chapel had grown in their absence and that Greyson and Beatrice Maliri have proved their faithfulness in leading the church. Give thanks that Jonathan’s trip to Australia was a blessing and an encouragement.

ZAMBIA

Special prayer is requested for Philip Cole (Chingola), who was recently involved in a road accident in which a man died. Police are carrying out investigations. Pray for the relatives of the deceased man and for Phil and Debbie as they go through this difficult experience.

PAKISTAN

Liz Greig (Ghari-Habibullah) says there is an urgent need for doctors at Kunhar Christian Hospital. Pray that someone will be found soon, even if it is just to cover Dr Haroon while he takes a much-needed holiday. Pray also for Liz, who will be giving the Bible studies at a nurses’ conference from 15th to 17th October. Her subject is ‘Worship’.

FRANCE

Alan and Valerie Kyle (Dunjerque) mention that the Onésime bookshop in Dunkerque is in need of someone to coordinate the work. The current worker is reluctant to leave before a replacement can be found. Pray for this need.

NORWAY

Give thanks that one of the prisoners whom Nat Rodgers (Skien)visits has become a Christian. ‘B’ has been studying the Bible for a number of years, but finally made a decision after reading a tract about the cross. Please pray for him as he begins his Christian life, and for the other prisoners, a number of whom are depressed because of their circumstances.

SPAIN

Jesus and Helen Ortiz (Soria) request prayer for a special evangelistic outreach from 7th to 15th October, with a visiting speaker from South Africa. Meetings will be held in Soria, El Burgo and Almazan, with the theme ‘Turning from idols to serve the true and living God’.

LEBANON

Give thanks that Jonathan Dieter  (Beirut) obtained his residence permit (See October Missionary Prayer Newsletter) last Friday, without any questions or complications arising. He didn’t even have to pick it up, as it was brought to the school for him!

LOCAL

Coffee & Chat each Wednesday morning at 10:30 am. 

Keith Bullock (Carisle, OAM) is with us  on Sunday for the preaching of the Gospel at 6:30 pm.
