Prayer Requests for Week Commencing 16 - 04 - 2007

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.  An index of previous weekly Missionary Prayer Requests is given at the foot of the page.  

MALAWI

Jonathan and Ruth Newell ask us to pray for their missionary colleague Oscar Mwila, a Zambian national, who will be getting married on Saturday 21st April. His bride Christine is also from Zambia and she will be joining him in the work in Blantyre.

RWANDA

Peter and Jenny Andrews ask us to pray for their son Chris and his fiancee Angela, who are also getting married on 21st April, at Mackintosh Evangelical Church in Cardiff. Jano and Chrissie Mulindabigwi will be attending the wedding. Jano played an important role in the lives of all three of the Andrews’ boys when they were in Rwanda.

JAPAN

Ken and Christine Cowell have been encouraged to hear that Mr Sugimoto professed faith last week.  He and his wife have been attending the meetings for just over a year, and his wife trusted the Lord two weeks ago. Prayer is requested for the monthly English service to be held next Sunday, and for Ken as he starts teaching at the university again this week. Pray that some new students will start to attend the meeting.

FRANCE

Ian and Francoise Newberry request prayer for Alan, with whom Ian has been in contact for the past five years. Alan has a stand at the market where Ian has his bookstall each Friday morning. Alan told Ian that he had recently been contacted by an evangelical church in his town and had also attended a Christian concert. He bought a Bible from Ian’s bookstall, and one morning Ian saw him at his stall reading the Gospel of Mark. Please pray for Alan’s conversion. Prayer is also requested for Ian as he takes seminars on prayer in Nantes on 21st and 22nd April.

Allan and Anne Kitt ask for prayer for a special evangelistic evening at Villefranche-sur-Saone on Saturday 21st April, with the choir from Geneva Bible Institute. Allan and Anne’s daughter Rachel and her husband, who are students at Geneva this year, will be taking part.

REPUBLIC OF IRELAND

Continue to pray for Noel and Liza McMeekin, who finish their run of annual Postal Bible School prize-givings this week. Please pray that these meetings will be used by the Lord to reach many, as most of the folk attending have no other contact with the gospel. This week, prizegivings will be held on 20th Carrigaline, and on 21st Midleton and Clonakilty. Pray for safety of travel for Noel and Liza.

SPAIN

Ken Barrett requests prayer for the preparation and the commencement of the evangelical stand at Alcala Book Fair, from Friday 20th April onwards. Please pray for reasonable weather and for the sale of books which will bring people to Christ. Pray, too, for the moves being made by national evangelical organisations to expose the basic religious inequality being perpetrated by Alcala City Council, who want to impose a local tax selectively on open-air street meetings held by evangelicals. They are specifically appealing over such a council charge for a meeting held on Easter Sunday. Ken also asks for prayer for a special Science and Faith conference which will be held at Alcala University on Monday 23rd April. The speaker will be Pablo de Felipe, an evangelical research scientist.

LOCAL

Terry McConway  of Gateshead is planned to be with us for the Gospel Service this Sunday.
