MALAWI
 Stephen
and Gail Harper (Thondwe) (left)
ask for prayer for
their friends Zoe and
Michael.
Stephen and
Gail have been trying to show
the love of God to this couple since
Zoe lost her brother unexpectedly a while ago.
Michael has recently bought
himself a Study Bible and says he intends to read it. He is a
Freemason and took an oath to read the Bible, but hasn’t until now.
ZAMBIA
Bethany
Smith (ex Wallsend) is settling in at
Katoka with
Mary Ratter. She has had a
brief period of being unwell, and is finding it very hot with high
humidity, but otherwise she’s fine. Please remember her in
prayer.
PAKISTAN
Ann Hughes
(ex Wallasey) during October plans to visit
Kunhar Christian Hospital,
travelling by car with Liz Greig.
Pray for safety in travel,
for good health and for a time of mutual encouragement.
THAILAND
Rupert and
Janet Abbott (Chiang Mai) foster babies awaiting adoption.
They have advised that the twin boys whom they handed over for
adoption in July have been returned to them. Sadly, they were
rejected by the adoptive parents, who thought their development had
been delayed. Pray that these
lively two year-olds will find a loving home.
ARGENTINA
Dick and
Irene Robertson (Oran) are helping their son
George in his schools work,
which reaches hundreds of children every week. They also have nine
Bible classes of their own. Pray
for them as they teach these children the Word of God on a regular
basis. An annual rally for all the Sunday schools is planned for
11th October. Pray for dry
weather for this event, which is held in the open air.
BRAZIL
Jeff and
Denise Watson (Foz) ask us to
pray for Oscar, the
brother of a lady in the fellowship.
Oscar has a drink problem but has promised to change after
suffering liver disease. He comes to meetings but has not made a
commitment to the Lord as yet. His estranged partner, by whom he has
three children, has agreed to marry him if he does change his ways.
Walter and
Elizabeth Alexander (Vitoria), will be at
Ituiutaba for a conference
and special meetings from 3rd to 9th
October. Walter will
be speaking at the Missionary Conference in
Sao Paulo on
10th and staying for the
weekend. Please pray for
Walter and Elizabeth as they travel and minister.
MEXICO
Eglon and
Judith Harris (Orizaba) are currently revising the Daily
Bible Readings and study materials for the first year of their
four-year Bible teaching programme. Before printing these, they need
to decide what changes are needed and which doctrines to highlight.
Pray that they will be given
wisdom for this task.
CANADA
 Peter
Smith returns home on Monday,
5th October and expects to be there for the whole month. He
is coming to visit his mother, after her recent knee replacement,
between Nov 10th-23rd. She
continues to do very well.
Numbers have picked up again with the
Postal Bible School to just
over 1500 students, but Peter
would value
prayer that they shall see the interest greatly increase and
the real need for new teachers met. They particularly need brethren
who would be willing to mark New
Life Bible Studies, as they have had a number of male
prisoners sign up.
SPAIN
 Ken
and Carmen Stunt (Almazan) ask us to
pray for
Daniel, a young man from
Ecuador who lives in Soria.
He recently came to Ken and
asked for advice on how to study the Bible. He is a believer and has
a real gift for getting alongside youngsters. Please also
pray for the Thursday women’s
group, the Friday men’s group and the fortnightly Bible study on
Monday evenings, where they are currently going through
Numbers.
