AFRICA

Join us in giving thanks to our Lord Jesus Christ for His faithful provision in Guinea Conakry. By His grace, new boreholes have been completed at the Free Methodist Churches in Foédou and Moribay. These provide much-needed access to clean water. Please pray many in these communities will come to know Jesus, the Living Water.

ASIA

Please continue to pray for the new work beginning with the Filipino group in Creative Access- MY. Thank God for bringing together a team of leaders to form a community in an important gateway city. Ask the Father to guide and grow this ministry according to His will, purposes and perfect timing.

EUROPE

This coming weekend, Area Director Josh Fajardo travels to northern Italy (Milan and Parma) for a Church Development Network encounter and exploration. Pray for potential new work and partnerships in Italy.

LATIN AMERICA

Brook and Susan Selby are now in Panama. Please pray that they will discern the Spirit’s guidance as they search for the right place to live, begin building strong relationships, and connect with the people and culture.


Ask the Father to give Area Director Ricardo Gomez wisdom as he leads strategic meetings with Impact Latin America and the Area Leadership Team over the next two weeks.

MIDDLE EAST

Pray for the discipleship of a new group in Jordan from the "majority" background. These individuals are boldly growing in their faith and sharing Jesus with those around them. Ask the Father to grant them wisdom, courage and protection.

FMWM FAMILY

Retired missionary Harry Winslow recently underwent surgery to repair ankle fractures caused by a fall. He is being transferred today to a nursing and rehabilitation center in Greenville, Illinois. Please pray for his recovery, especially that he will regain strength in his legs.

ICCM

Please pray for families and children in Malawi who depend on maize for daily food, especially in areas where farming is difficult. Thank God for His provision for sponsored children. Pray for ongoing food security, dependable rainfall, and for God to strengthen ICCM as they care for families facing hunger.
