God's hope to survivors of natural disasters: Indonesia has recently suffered a series of natural disasters, including a major tsunami. This impacted the lives and livelihoods of over 500 people on the islands of Java and Sumatra, leaving communities devastated. Global Christian charity, Lifewords is currently resourcing pastors and volunteers with Bible booklets, as they bring God’s hope, healing, and comfort to survivors. Please pray for people in Indonesia who are experiencing hopelessness in the face of crisis. Pray that with the help of organisations and partnerships, these broken communities may receive the support they need to help rebuild their lives, homes and hearts. Pray too for the protection of Christians who are serving in the midst of chaos and trauma.
Love Phnom Penh Festival: In November 2019, the Cambodian churches are holding an evangelistic crusade which they are calling the 'Love Phnom Penh Festival'. Franklin Graham, President and CEO of the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association will speak at large-scale meetings on three days. Please pray for the organisers; for permission to use the city’s stadium for the event; for Franklin Graham and his interpreter; for people to come, hear the gospel and be saved; and for Cambodian Christians to pray, prepare and invite friends.
Christian radio programmes in remote communities: One radio listener in Myanmar wrote, “I am now in a very remote area. In my village, we do not have a pastor, evangelist or any Christian worker. One day, when I tuned the radio, I heard a radio programme broadcast in my native language and was so excited to be listening to the programme. From that time onward, thankfully I am very blessed by the Word of God. This is the only programme I am now relying on for my spiritual and physical growth. Not only me, I invite villagers to come to my house and listen to the radio programme. Thank God for this opportunity.” Pray for the impact of Christian radio programmes in remote communities throughout Myanmar. Pray that God would transform lives.
Expatriate Japanese churches: Praise God that Japanese Christians are setting up churches outside Japan in order to serve expatriate Japanese. Pray that these churches will be a refuge for those struggling with certain aspects of living overseas. Praise God that the strong sense of community that Japanese people have is present in these churches and ask that unbelievers would be led to Jesus through this fellowship. Pray for these churches to be equipped to prepare new Japanese Christians for their return to Japan, as their new-found faith may give rise to friction, due to the many cultural and social barriers they are likely to encounter on returning home. Pray also for strong networks between overseas Japanese churches and gospel-centred churches back in Japan.
