Here are this week’s praises and requests!
PRAISES
American Indian Field: Chris Amberman praises God for the signs of spiritual growth she is seeing in a few of the kids from Bible Club. One of the girls has been reading a story Bible Chris gave her last year, and she is almost finished. This same girl is asking questions about baptism. Pray that God will keep her heart open to His love and that He will give Chris the right words as the girl seeks answers.
Mexico: Dennis and Twana Johnson shared that the Lord is working through the youth at Bread of Life Christian Center in León. The kids have been ministering at Comienzos (New Beginnings) orphanage, which has 25 kids who live there full time and 20 to 25 more who come during the day while their parents work. Although the orphanage has many physical needs, such as construction, food, supplies, etc., the Christian directors’ focus is on the kids knowing about God and His love for them. Praise God for this new outreach, and remember both the children in the orphanage and the kids in youth group as they build friendships and share Christ’s life-changing love.
Texas/Mexico Border Ministries: A high school sophomore who accepted Christ during the first semester at Taylor Christian School recently shared that she knows God has a plan for her life. Keep praying for this young Christian as she follows God’s leading.
REQUESTS
Bolivia: Santa Cruz Christian Learning Center needs teachers for the 2013-2014 school year. Ask God to speak to the hearts of those teachers He is calling to serve in Bolivia. Pray also for God’s Spirit to recruit the needed personnel for WGM Bolivia as the field sharpens its ministry focus to target Bolivians under the age of 29.
Haiti: Paul Shingledecker will hold a follow-up management and leadership seminar May 30-31 for the Radio Lumière directors’ council. Pray that God will continue to challenge the leadership to greater excellence as Radio Lumière changes lives daily around the world.
Kenya: Jim and Alice Vanderhoof request prayer for a couple of missionaries who are undergoing serious spiritual warfare in their ministry. Please pray that God will remove the opposition and accomplish His will through them.
Mexico: Dennis and Twana Johnson are also feeling the enemy’s attacks as Bread of Life Christian Center grows in number and spirituality. Although interpersonal relationships have been challenged, marriages have been strained, and the youth have been tempted, the Lord is victorious! Sunday morning testimonies reveal that those struggling are overcoming the challenges and that those listening to the testimonies are being encouraged in their struggles. Pray for strength for the congregation and for Dennis and Twana as they fight the powers of darkness and encourage and counsel those in need.
South Sudan: Mango Ministries is scheduled to hold Community Health Evangelism Training in Tonj May 27-31 and a surgery clinic in Werkok May 27 to June 1. May the Lord heal damaged hearts and lives during these outreach events.
P.S. If you feel the Lord calling you to respond to any personnel needs, contact recruiting@wgm.org.
