THIS WEEKS PRAYER ITEMS
Thank you for praying for the people and work of GC3.
Prayer is critical to all we and our mission partners do in our ministries so thank you in joining us in praying through the items we provide each week. The task of presenting the Gospel is far from over; there remains vast number of people globally who have yet to hear of God’s love.
Phyllis (Day 8)
As you read this letter, we invite you to join us in singing joyful praise unto the Lord and to rejoice together with us as Rehoboth Girls' Orphanage celebrates 120 years of God's gracious daily love and care. We also remember with gratitude and thanksgiving the faithful prayer and loving fellowship, whole-heartedly given by Assemblies and individuals in NZ for these many, many years.
We were greatly encouraged last weekend when many of our previous children accepted the invitation to come home for a celebration reunion. They came with their extended families up to three generations. On the 17th, the numbers swelled to about 450. All were so excited to see each other again and to join together in praise and worship. Dear prayer partners, your giving has not been in vain - thank you. I continue to wait on the Lord regarding my visa knowing that my times are safe in His hands.
Stephen & Karen (Day 15)
We will be visiting Australia and NZ in July and August. Please pray for our daughter Hannah's wedding and for good connection with friends and our partnership team as well as opportunities to share what God is doing in Central Asia.
Nigel & Nicola (Day 25)
Pray that the recently completed series on the Apocalypses of the Prophets will be a blessing to those who attended. Please pray as I prepare for the upcoming trip to Brisbane in late June and early July, that the Lord will continue to provide opportunities to share. Praise the Lord for the opportunities he has provided already.
Sandra (Day 22)
I have received photos and videos of the latest medicines and food that the staff have purchased at Dilolo and in Angola. They have also got local maize. It is wonderful that we can get the cash to them, and they can purchase and transport things like essential medicines and cartridges for the photocopy machine. The photocopier paper is available in boxes in Angola. This all keeps the hospital running. Mukanda, Mwaji, and the pharmacist are really very grateful.
My cataract operation got delayed last month so now I am set for 26th May. Please pray that I get this one done and then I will be able to get a date for the 2nd one.
Simon & Ann (Day 4)
We are still waiting for our visa, but it has been promised to be done by Thursday, and we plan to leave Thursday night. Please pray for that to process in time. Please pray that we bless everyone we meet in our travels and in our short home assignment (in the college break, June and July).
Thank you for praying for the new ministry Ann has been involved in. It’s been very encouraging to see God work in providing her with opportunities to help refugees.
We are excited to see our local church grow and please continue to pray for it to grow in both faith and numbers. The other day, after Simon got chatting to the taxi driver. The driver confessed that he was a Christian and that has neglected to meet with Christians and hasn’t been attending church, so he asked Simon for a contact number so he and his family could attend ours.
Darron & Susan (Day 9)
We would appreciate prayer as we head down to Georgia next week. We are visiting the international country director with the mission we are partnered beside. The purpose of the trip is to prayerfully consider steps moving forward for going back to Liberia, timing for going back and other things along those lines.
Trinity & Liv (Day 31)
Praise God for a successful semester of seminary studies online for Trinity. We both have university exams coming up, so pray that we can do all things for God’s glory. We have a meeting this week to get renters in our house, so pray it will go well. Summer is coming, and almost all churches in Norway close during this time. We will not close. Pray that this will provide opportunities for new people to hear the gospel and preaching through God’s Word.
Richard & Yuko (Day 7)
We ask for continued intercession that God will provide the Japanese saints and my grandchildren with great marriages and ministries.
We gift thanks that the surgeon was satisfied with my condition after operations for cataracts on both of my eyes.
