BANGLADESH/WEST BENGAL
God our father, we lift up the country of Bangladesh and West Bengal, India, to you. We pray that your spirit would continue to work powerfully through new believers in the house church ministry. We pray that you would give the persecuted strength to endure for your name’s sake. Pray for the church that is caring for the “least of these;” widows who receive love and support from the house church community.

We pray that your loving character would be displayed through the good works of the Christian Service Society (CSS), and developing strong Christian leaders through their many programs.

Please pray for the thousands of people who receive micro-loans from CSS. May they feel the love and compassion which originates from Christ. May the sponsored children grow in wisdom and stature and turn to a loving Father. Father, help the Leadership Training Program students who face persecution from their professors as they seek to earn their college degrees. Let them be a light in the universities and with the all people they interact with pointing them to Jesus.

Praise that violence in Bangladesh has diminished. A caretaker leadership team is in place and the internet has been restored. Pray that the Christian Service Society workers remain safe. Praise that the US has moved Bangladesh from a “no-travel” location (Level 4) to a “reconsider-travel” (Level 3).

We pray that the people of Bangladesh and West Bengal would “sing the
praises of the Lord… and proclaim among the nations what He (Jesus) has done.” (Psalm 9:11)

BRAZIL
Jesus, thank you that you have a deep passion to see your name made known to the remote jungle villages in the Amazon River basin. We pray that you would resource the River ministry of the Presbyterian Church of Manaus to reach the lost, make disciples and plant churches.

We pray that IPM will raise up 25 new church planters and evangelists to advance into more remote areas of the Amazon and unreached people groups and have a presence in all 62 municipalities (currently 33) of the Amazonas state.

Praise for our new Country Support Coach, Caio. He is stepping up to work with our Brazil partner. Please pray for Caio as he settles into getting to know our Brazil partner and their mission better.

Pray for the IPM church to continue to help thousands each year surrender to Christ, through their annual Passion event, english camps, river outreach and other ministries.

God, we declare that, you will be lifted up in the nation of Brazil as you are lifted up in the earth. (Psalm 46:10)

CZECH REPUBLIC
Please be in prayer for our friends in Central Europe. Recently they have experienced severe flooding in the region.

Pray for safety for our partners working in Ukraine to establish new churches for refugees, and provide love and care for those displaced by the violence.

Pray for our brothers and sisters in Frydlant Church (one of only 3 churches in the valley) that is thriving and growing. Pray for their bold witness to their
community. God you said to King David in Psalm 2:8, “Ask me, and I will make the nations your inheritance, the ends of the earth your possession.” We ask this for the country of Czech Republic today.

Jesus our King, we pray for the country of the Czech Republic. We pray that once again your spirit would move among the people, drawing them to yourself. We pray for them to turn from their sin and open their spiritual eyes to you. We pray for the leaders of Josiah Venture that they would continue to raise new young leaders, disciple them, and encourage new young church planters.

HAITI
Please be in prayer for stability and peace in Haiti. Pray for boldness and safety as Christians continue to bring the Gospel to others. New seminary students, new churches, and new believers!

Pray for Wiljennie (Wiljean’s daughter) and her husband Judelyn as they welcome a new baby into their family. Mom and baby are doing well. Praise that Wiljerry received his US Visa and that similarly, Wiljean will receive a Visa in October which will allow them to travel to the US. Prayers for the next seminary 2024-2025 class that started in August and prayers for the new church plant in Opech that opened in July. What a blessing that Haiti continues to welcome new believers!

God you love the people of Haiti more than we ever could, and we pray that you would open our hearts to love them as you do. We know that it grieves your heart that a people, whom so many claim to love you, also bend a knee to other gods. We pray now, against Satan’s hold on that nation. We pray that the power of the Gospel would transform the nation of Haiti from person to person. We pray for our partner Open Door Haiti as they are ministering to the people in Haiti. We pray for your ways to be known in Haiti, your salvation to all the people. (Psalm 67:2)

NICARAGUA
Please pray for the expanding church plants in the barrios where Chosen Children Ministries (CCM) serve those most in need in the country. Pray for clean water from wells CCM has drilled, for the families who are the recipients of the 100 new homes constructed annually, that their new homes would be places where their neighbors hear about Jesus. Pray for
the Bible college that teaches new church leaders, for medical clinics, food programs, and the child sponsorship program that provides food and educational opportunities to the 1200 sponsored children & their families.

Pray that the small micro-businesses started with seed money from Christ Community Church would serve their barrios well and would grow to be profitable for the owners.

Pray as CCM as they complete paperwork for future GO Team projects. Pray for the next GO Team that will be departing on October 12 as they make final preparations.

Pray for discipleship of new leaders in CCM, for the spiritual and physical care of those in leadership roles, and for wisdom as they guide the ministry. Shine your glory, through us, as we go and make disciples! (Genesis 12:1-13, Matthew 28:18-20)

SIERRA LEONE
Holy Spirit we praise you for your great redeeming work in Sierra Leone!

We pray for New Harvest Global Ministries as they seek to plant a church in every village. We pray that you would supply the leaders, the Bibles, the spiritual breakthrough, and the resources to continue to establish your church in that nation.

Pray for the disciplining of new leaders through teaching, coaching, and Mega Fest December, 2024. Praise you for the new Eric Hanson Building at the Every Nation College in Bo, and the thousands that will be impacted for decades to come.

Pray for the construction of shelters on New Harvest’s new Prayer Mountain in Bo, Sierra Leone, and for future GO Teams that will be working on construction for this project over the years.

Pray for the continued construction of additional buildings at the Every Nation College Campus as well as the completion of the Eric Hanson building, cafeteria, and library. Pray for the grand opening which has been scheduled to coincide with the Mega Fest GO Team in December. A container filled with supplies to finish the Eric Hanson building has been
shipped and should be arriving in October. Please pray that the needed generator arrives safely.

Pray for the roof for the Megafest building. They need funding to finish the roof and other work – approximately $325,000 is needed.

God, we are ready to be sent by you as we pray, give, and go to impact Sierra Leone. You are the Lord of all the earth and you are the Lord of Sierra Leone. We are willing to shout your name! Therefore I will praise you, LORD, among the nations; I will sing the praises of your name. (Psalm 18:49)
