Christian radio brings hope of the Gospel

In Gabu, a Christian radio station is spreading the good news of the gospel. Evangelica FM broadcasts in Portuguese to the surrounding area and has the support of many churches and congregations. After a recent gathering of pastors, they recommitted themselves to support the station and to give a unified voice for the Christian church in that region. One pastor wrote, “All of us have been awakened to a reality: making the light of Christ shine in the community!” Pray for the staff as they make programmes that bring hope into that community.

Mobile clinic brings healing

The Abuja slums in Nigeria are home to hundreds of people affected by leprosy, living in the most unimaginable poverty. Most have limited or no access to medical care and attention. Give thanks with us that a mobile clinic has now been funded to serve the people of this community who are in so much need. Please pray for the team who will be bringing medical treatment through the clinic. Pray they will bring emotional and spiritual healing as well as diagnosing and treating leprosy.

Petition for Atewa Forest

The petition appealing to the President of Ghana to save Atewa Forest has gained over 13,000 signatures. Please pray that the Ghanaian Government would see that forest’s value far exceeds any economic benefit that could be gained from bauxite extraction and that they respond to protect this globally important site, as it provides a habitat for many thousands of species and a clean water supply for millions of Ghanaians. Please pray too for wisdom and protection for our colleagues in Ghana as they publicly raise support for this campaign.

African radio station

This landlocked state near the Sahara Desert is still a pioneer missions country, with two-thirds of the population unreached. There are less than 1% evangelical believers here and breakthrough has not yet been seen. In the middle of the bush a little two-room concrete building is being renovated with solar panels on the roof; there is no electricity for miles around. This will be a radio station aimed at reaching 10,000 people that haven’t yet heard the good news of Jesus. Pray for many to respond as they hear the gospel for the first time.
