We are at church camp this week with a lot of students who don’t know the Lord. Please pray that many would be saved!
We are launching our Young One Festival this summer in hope that our next generation will be inspired to reach out to their friends who are far from God. Please pray God will use this festival as a platform for revival among our next generation. Pray that many ethnic churches and partnering churches will join us in the relay run along Yonge Street and in conducting evangelism activities at every five kilometer station on Yonge Street. Also pray that during July and August, the young will care about lost souls, pray for the salvation of their friends and invite them to the summer events of participating churches. And finally, we will have the Young One Rally on the first Saturday of September when we will implement the “Who’s Your One?” campaign. We are praying this festival will be effectively developed every year as a kingdom movement among our next generation of people in the Greater Toronto Area.
Please be in prayer for our church as we continue to bounce back from COVID-19. Just two years into our church plant, the pandemic shut down everything for one and one-half years. Essentially, Multiply Church is planting again but now with a new opportunity to gain a permanent facility for ministry, as opposed to renting a movie theatre. Because construction costs have increased and attendance and giving are down, we are in need of partners who will pray for God’s provision. Thank you so much for praying for this immediate need.
Please pray for the successful launch of Lemington International Fellowship Church’s Sunday services on July 10. Pray also for the visa application of Brother Ed Sarmiento. Pray that he will be granted a religious worker visa.
Pray for the successful closing on our future property and that God will provide the resources needed to build a local home for Sweet Fellowship Church for His use in reaching east Texans with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
My time as a backfill reservist on active duty is almost at an end here at Eglin Air Force Base, and I am not scheduled for any more of them. Thus, I am thankful for the three and one-half years of backfills provided by God, and now I must find a job, preferably as a chaplain in a hospital or in hospice. The where and when I leave up to God and will start submitting resumes this week. I look forward to where God will place me just as He has with six active duty locations.
Please pray for me and my family as I spend the next two months training at Fort Jackson in South Carolina. I will be away from my wife and six children. Pray for our spiritual, physical and emotional health throughout my time away. Pray that this time away would enable me to become a more effective, skilled and competent minister in the areas of evangelism, discipleship, counseling and leadership. Thank you very much.
The door to a unique mission/ministry opportunity has opened a crack. I have submitted an application for this position. Please pray that if this is God’s will for me, He will open the door that I can walk through it. May God’s will be done.
Please be praying that I can get fully funded this summer before the semester starts. Also, pray that my heart is postured toward God, who is the provider of all things and that I continue to trust Him and more than the sufficiency I place on myself.
We will be begin the work of planting Iglesia Bautista Hispana de Muskogee on July 1. Pray as we form a core team. Please pray members of the Hispanic community in Muskogee would be drawn to Christ. Please also pray for the provision of housing for our family.
May 29th we started praying diligently that the Lord would save specific people in our lives. We wrote their names down on cards, and we asked Him to use us to reach them. As of right now, we have more than 30 names on cards. We placed those cards in the horse trough we use for baptisms. Will you join us in praying those people will be saved? Will you pray that one day soon we get to pull those cards out of the trough because it’s time to add water and baptize them?
Going into the summer is always a tough thing financially for us. My wife is on a 10-month teaching contract and doesn’t get paid in July and August. Pray that God does His thing again this summer and provides for our family of seven. Thank you!
I will be retiring from the military in early October. At this time, I’m somewhat confused about what to do and where to go from here but am being patient. I was diagnosed with PTSD about three months ago and am currently undergoing treatment. Things are going well and there has been some slow progress. I still have my moments. This condition has made it difficult to stay focused in regard to where I am now with my career in the Navy ending soon. I look forward to retirement, but it’s been hard adjusting in the meantime. Pray that God will give me wisdom and clear direction on the next step in the journey. My wife had surgery for cancer two months ago but is doing quite well overall now. However, both of my sisters are dealing with it now. I ask that you pray for successful progress for Cathi and Vicky as doctors work with them to plan procedures and chemo treatments. Vicky has a higher level of cancer. Thank you.
Please pray our summer outreach projects for kids and families will draw many and that souls would be saved through them. Pray our church members will grow in love for God and one another. Pray for our family as we run hard during a busy season.
My wife, Jill, has been diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer and started treatment the second week of June. The treatment plan is 20 weeks of chemotherapy, then mastectomy, then radiation. Please pray for her.
My husband of nearly 40 years recently died of a massive heart attack. Please pray I can heal quickly and use his death in some way to praise the Lord and help others.
We are conducting our church camp east of Black Canyon June 20–23. Please pray all activities will be Spirit led and that the relationships, gospel presence and kingdom focus will be substantial.
