Latest prayer points

Chile
Students in Chile: Praise God for the cohort of students who have recently completed “Euangelion”, a four-week evangelism training course run by GBU Chile. They have been looking at the Bible to understand the gospel and taking steps in the preparation of a 10-13 minute evangelistic talk. Pray for the students who will hear the gospel through these young people to have open hearts. (IFES - August 2021)
Brazil
Sharing Jesus in Brazil: Daniel and Mariana Poquiviqui are indigenous missionaries sent by the Terena Church to work among the Xukuri kariri indigenous people, Northeast of Brazil. Pray that the message of salvation in Jesus Christ would find open hearts and minds. Pray that they’d be able to carry out tutoring classes for children and provide pure clean water to the village. (Emmanuel International - August 2021)
Paraguay
Protection for children: Viva’s partner network in Paraguay is continuing to protect children from harm and abuse in spite of the challenges brought by rising Covid cases and social restrictions in recent months. Pray for the network of more than 300 churches and organisations as it provides training about positive discipline, the prevention of abuse and violence against children, and early pregnancy. Pray too as the network is actively working to change laws and policies. Through its advocacy efforts and relationships built, it is involved in influencing two regional and two national government policies to strengthen the protection system. (Viva - August 2021)
Covid in Latin America
Covid in Latin America: Many countries within Latin America continue to struggle with the severe health and economic effects of the pandemic. Furthermore, vaccination rollout remains slow, with various countries unable to acquire the amounts needed to have major impact. Please pray for fairer distribution, wise decision making, and protection of the vulnerable. (Latin Link - August 2021)
