Romans 12:10-12

“The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much.”

James 5:16


Weekly Prayer Requests - July 21, 2010

 

DAY 3 - Caroline Gross: NIGERIA

 "Ministry of Mercy keeps growing because the director cannot refuse a needy child. A set of quadruplets were successfully raised to their present two years of age. The mother of another set brought her four. When one baby died of a third set, their mother hurried to the orphanage with the remaining three. The greatest continuing needs are for food, education and medicine."

 

DAY 6 - Dorothy Woodside: ZAMBIA

"Camps begin in August. I have been asked to speak at the Senior Girls' Camp. Please pray for these girls. Many of them are 'game playing with God'. Pray that they will be serious about their relationship with God."

 

DAY 7 - Moses & Susan Injeti: INDIA

"[Pray for our] 'Summer 2010 10K Project'. This project is to see if we can get the Good News out to 10,000 children. We are focusing on villages around our city which don't have churches, as well as slums, schools, and children's homes, using Wordless Book bracelets and a variety of methods to teach the lesson."

 

DAY 9 - David & Ruth Harvey: PHILIPPINES

"In Cainta, where there has been only a preschool for 20 years, we are looking into the possibility of starting an elementary school for the 2011-2012 school year. A neighbor has offered a very special deal on 935 square meters of land - approximately 4 times the size of the property the school now occupies and very close to its current location."

 

DAY 11 - Carolyn Oates: AUSTRIA

"Pray about the ongoing talks with a lady and her daughter. Religion is taught in the schools here and her daughter's teacher told her all Bible stories are just made up. The daughter no longer believes in God, but is still asking questions. The mother is dumbfounded.  We continue to meet over the summer."

 

DAY 14 - Paul Meehan: HUNGARY

"Hungary has been drenched in rain with much flooding for the past several weeks. Many homes have been severely damaged along with most of the farmland. Please pray as this is causing severe damage to an already hurting economy!"

 

 DAY 25 - Mark & Kim DeJager: PERU

 "We have begun to visit the parents with children in the Christian school using a survey to get feedback on the school from them, and then to ask them several questions about their relationship with God. . . So far, we have over 20 families who have asked for follow-up visits which will entail a weekly Bible study in their home."
