Yemen - Medair UK

The Yemeni people are experiencing a storm of crises including underdeveloped health systems, water scarcity and political challenges. The ongoing currency crisis, and rising inflation, is putting further pressure on Yemenis, making food, water and fuel unaffordable for many in the country - which imports most of its needs. Please pray for the Medair team responding to these emergencies and providing support to as many people as possible through essential nutrition and health care, and water, hygiene and sanitation services. Pray for the malnourished pregnant mothers and young children visiting Medair supported health facilities in remote and isolated areas. Ask God to enable a way for them to receive treatment, so that they make a strong recovery and live happy lives.

Israel - Holocaust survivors come to faith - IMJP

International Mission to Jewish People shares the Good News with Jewish people all over the world. Jerusalem is home to an estimated 546,000 Jewish people, including elderly Holocaust survivors and there is an urgent need for them to hear the Good News of Jesus. Our missionary Aviel Sela regularly organises free Hebrew classes for Russian-speaking Jewish people and evangelistic bus tours of biblical sites. He has already seen two Holocaust survivors come to faith and begin walking with the Lord since the beginning of this year.

Libya - political stability - Middle East Concern

Please pray for political stability and the installation of a government that protects religious freedom. Please pray the rule of law will apply and be enforced across Libya, in a fair manner. Please pray for an end to the killing of and all manner of violence and abuse against Christians, including kidnapping for ransom by militia groups, and to discriminatory policies targeting church operations. Please pray for conditions allowing the church to flourish and that more and more of God’s children in Libya will come to know Jesus; and allowing Christians, including converts to freely express their love for God.

Israel - those recovering from addictions - WEC

Betel International is now a legalized entity in Israel as both a Christian organisation and as an body entitled to engage in commercial activities. Praise God for the funds to purchase a suitable property, both for a residence for those recovering from addictions, and also as an income generating project - ideally a tourist hotel. Pray that Covid restrictions will lift significantly for this new venture of faith to advance.

WEC International

Saudi Arabia

March 2022

Empowering Saudi believers

Pray that the truth will be presented to Saudis through personal witness, satellite programmes and websites. Praise God that a few Saudi believers are doing just this: teaching the Bible in Arabic through YouTube, mobile apps and websites. Saudis are avid users of the internet and social media. Pray that God will give wisdom to those who run media and internet platforms which talk about Christ and the good news.
