Pray for the members of the team that are traveling this week. Meg is in Florida visiting her mother. Coco is in Nicaragua.
Praise God that many accepted Jesus as their Lord and Savior this past week as the Siloam mission team shared the gospel with us in La Carpio. Pray for the new believers that will now be joining discipleship classes.
Please pray for Mark as he finishes writing a daily devotional book to be used in the churches and discipleship groups this coming year.
Praise God that the local members of the ministry team (Rogelio and Coco) go into the new year fully supported. Please pray for the support that is lacking for the remainder of the team (Mark/Meg, Matt/Brooke, and Melinda).
Praise God for the over 60 people in weekly discipleship classes in La Carpio. Please pray for a location to begin weekly church services.
Pray that the youth would learn to take every thought captive to the obedience of Christ
(2 Cor. 10:3-5). Pray that they will take responsibility for their wrong choices and sin rather than blaming someone else.
Pray that God would intervene in homes where youth are suffering from abuse and violence. In the midst of great injustice and pain, pray that God would defend and protect the youth.
Please pray for safety. Pastor Rogelio and his family are living and working in an area that can be very dangerous. All of us have been called to difficult areas and we ask that you pray for God’s protection.
The alarming rate of inflation continues to impact the ministry as well as the ministry team. Please join us in praying for God to supply what is needed in the face of these sharply rising prices.
"Prices increased 16.3 percent in the past 12 months, breaking a 10-year inflation record set in September. Prices for food and nonalcoholic drinks increased by 26.7 percent over the 12 months ending in October, while transportation increased by 20.4 percent, and restaurant food increased by 19.5 percent, according to a monthly report by the National Statistics and Census Institute."
