Prayer and praise

Please pray:

Pray for everyone affected by the earthquakes in Turkey and Syria - for survivors to heal from trauma, for mourners to be comforted and for relief aid and hope for those who have lost so much.

Give thanks

Praise God that survivors and families from the Sri Lanka church bombings of Easter 2019 have been compensated - pray that the perpetrators would be brought to justice and thank God that no further church bombings have happened in Sri Lanka since.

How can you pray for Afghanistan?

  • Please pray that secret believers will be protected from harm—and they will sense the prayers of their brothers and sisters around the world.
  • Ask God to touch the hearts of the Taliban leaders, and any other extremist who would oppress Christians. Pray that God would reveal the truth of Jesus to every person who opposes Him.
  • Pray for Afghan refugees. Many are in countries where it's still difficult to follow Jesus—and difficult to live comfortably. Ask God to help refugees find relief, and for the surrounding countries to allow refugees to work, attend school and worship freely.
