ANGOLA

Please pray for Ruth Hadley (Saurimo), who has been unwell over the last couple of weeks with suspected hepatitis. She is resting and hopes to improve with the right treatment.

JAPAN

Ronnie and Anne Cairns (Akashi) will be visiting their former area of service, Izumo, from 24th to 26th October. They have a very busy programme, with preaching, Bible teaching, sharing and counselling, both in groups and one-to-one. Pray for the believers, and also for unsaved folk who will be invited to the Sunday afternoon coffee hour.

 

 

 

PAKISTAN

Ann Hughes (ex Wallasey) has had a good week in Faisalabad. She was able to visit the brick kiln school and hear the children reciting Bible verses. Also, 66 ladies came to the ladies’ rally at Calvary Church, when she gave the opening message and Liz Greig closed with a report about the work at Kunhar Christian Hospital. This week, Ann will be staying with Eunice Jones for a few days before returning home on Friday. Pray for a time of mutual encouragement and that Ann will have a safe journey back. 

PHILIPPINES

Jonathan and Jingle Bradford (Manilla) ask for continued prayer, as they expect another typhoon to hit the Philippines. They are waiting until this one has passed before they replace their furniture. Jonathan has a lot of preaching and teaching engagements lined up but has lost all his books and manuals. Pray that he will find suitable Bible helps so that he can prepare his messages.

ARGENTINA

Bobby and Isabel Jack (Buenos Aires) ask for special prayer over the next two weekends, when Bobby will be speaking on “Revelation and the Heavenly Jerusalem”, with an accompanying exhibition. He will be presenting the gospel at two of the Sunday meetings.

FRANCE

John and Beryl van den Hogen (Roncq) request prayer for a seminar on Christian counselling being held this week in  Belgium. About 35 Christians will be attending from the north of France and the south of Belgium. The final session takes place next Saturday from 2 till 7 pm. Pray that those who attend will be able to apply what they have learned and help lead others to maturity in the faith.

NORWAY

Please pray for Margaret Hewitt, who is still feeling unwell. She has severe back pain and was due to have an operation at the end of October, but this has been delayed because of a heart problem. She has not felt well enough to restart the Sunday school yet. In addition to this, last week all her bank cards were stolen outside a shopping centre, by a couple whom she was trying to help.

SPAIN

Ray and Eunice Cawston (ex Glasgow) are visiting Murcia, until 2nd November. They have preaching and teaching engagements each weekend, as well as involvement in other areas of the work. The church building is being refurbished to provide a new 130-seat main area with a baptistry, together with an office and air conditioning throughout. The area being used at present will then provide badly needed space for children’s and youth work. Prayer would be valued for this project.

OTHER OVERSEAS SERVICE

Peter Hedley (ex Sidmouth) is making another trip to Albania from Tuesday 20th October for the next few weeks. Pray for him as he travels around and ministers in different areas.
