Please pray for
Mark and
Malichaba West (Maseru), who had a
break-in at their home on 4th October.
Mark
was confronted by a group of seven armed
robbers, who stole three laptops and some
cash. The incident happened around 7 pm
while the children were playing outside.
Please pray
for the family following this traumatic
experience and give thanks that no one was
harmed.
THAILAND
Geoff
and Pat Atkinson (Mae Sariang) would
value prayer
for a special children’s conference taking
place this week, from
12th to 15th
October. Last year about 250 children
attended and numbers usually increase each
year. Pray
for the team of students from the Bible
school as they help to run this event.
Peter
Ferry (Phuket) (right)will be
visiting
China for a couple of weeks from
Friday onwards. Please
pray
for him as he visits contacts and seeks to
encourage them. He will be in Shanghai to
start with and will visit Xining for five
days from 21st, returning to Thailand on
27th.
ARGENTINA
Please remember in
prayer,
Gloria Morris, who has been unable to
see properly since a blood vessel in her eye
ruptured a few weeks ago. She is receiving
medical treatment and the doctors have said
healing normally takes two months from the
original rupture. She is planned with
Charles
to be in Argentina till
2nd November
and was to speak at the Annual
Conference of a Women’s Missionary
Fellowship.
CANADA
Peter Smith
this week has ministry in
Edmonton
for one night, followed by a couple of
nights in
Coalhurst. Then on
Friday,
God willing, he crosses the USA border and
heads for
Okanogan for the first of four series
of
Treasure Seekers. Our
prayers would be appreciated for
these responsibilities.
FRANCE
Graham and
Alison Black (Bouc-Bel-Air) ask for
prayer
for a new
Alpha course which is just starting.
This time, instead of being held at the
church, it will be in a couple’s home. Two
people have promised to come and two others
have shown interest.
Peter
Wheeler (Arras) reports that the son
of a lady in their fellowship, who has been
in prison for several years, seems to have
come to the Lord. He has known the gospel
since he was a boy and several Christians
have visited him in prison.
Pray
for him, as his faith will be tested when he
is released in three months’ time.
SPAIN
Ken and
Carmen Stunt (Almazan) will be
visiting the
Canary Islands from
21st October
to 4th November.
Ken

two new elders will be recognised, one of
whom is the husband of their daughter
Ana.
Pray
for Ken
as he decides on an appropriate subject for
his talk.
LEBANON
Please
pray
for Nigel
and Annette White (Tyre).
Nigel
recently had his residency papers approved,
but Annette
has not received hers yet. This is the first

problem.
Pray that the Lord will overrule in
this situation.
