February 2024

Praise God that last month, Potter’s House were able to reopen their dental clinic serving a community where they recognised a significant need. Pray this service is a blessing to those who will benefit the most. Pray also for the 25 secondary school students supported by the Potter’s House Education Programme who will be graduating in 2024. Ask God to sustain them and give them wisdom through their final year.

Pray as we consider the principles of the International Day of Social Justice (20th Feb); pray for human rights, participation, access and equity. Pray we see these flourish in our projects worldwide. Please pray for: increased inclusion for families affected by disability. Increased access to education and health services for minority groups. Equity for girls, disproportionately affected by both Covid and climate change. Pray for greater access to fair legal systems, which support human rights.

Pray for guidance and wisdom of the facilitators at Potter's House in Guatemala, who give love and care on a daily basis to 'Treasures' that do not usually receive it in their homes. In particular pray for those who are experiencing feelings of loneliness and abandonment, for peace in their hearts and minds. Pray also for opportunities for dental and health clinics in the Western Highlands Community Centre in Guatemala. Some of the 'Treasures' have severe dental problems, as well as diabetes, cancer, respiratory and stomach problems for Treasures and their parents.

May 2023

Due to its proximity to Central American countries such as Mexico and Guatemala, Belize is known as a transit point for illegal drug trafficking. Numerous incidents of drug discovery in schools in the south of the country involving students have been recorded. Many university students have expressed feelings of hopelessness and being stuck due to government corruption and nepotism. The pandemic saw the IS/ IVCF (IFES movement in Belize) ministry contract, but new shoots are emerging. Pray for students, staff and volunteers seeking to share Christ’s hope in schools, colleges and universities.

September 2022

Please pray that local Guatemalan churches would recognise their responsibility and calling to share a holistic gospel with those in their own communities, and that they may find new, creative ways to do so. For unity, reconciliation, and forgiveness between the different political, ethnic and religious groups, and for justice and equal access to services for those most at risk. For God’s protection over the Guatemala team members, as they live, work and travel in a country with a high incidence of violence and for their health and wellbeing during the Covid-19 pandemic. That God would raise up many more Guatemalans to serve cross-culturally within Guatemala, as well as in other countries, and that churches would be willing to support them long term.
