Prayer Requests

Pray for Our Church (EFCLA)

  • Pray for Younger Students. All the schools have reopened in Fall, but none of the students 12 and younger have been vaccinated.  Please pray for the safety of these younger students.
  • Pray for Prayer Ministries. Pray that the Lord would raise more people devoting themselves to prayer, and to join the Wednesday night prayer meeting.   Pray that the Lord would transform EFCLA/Harvest LA into a church of prayer.
  • Pray for Happiness Groups. Pray that all the Happiness groups would successfully invite BESTs to their meetings.  Pray that the BESTs would be touched by the programs of the Happiness groups. 
  • Pray for the Sick.  Pray for those who are sick. Pray that the Lord would heal them and restore their health.

Pray for the world

  • Pray for Refugees.  According to the United Nations Refugee Agency (UNHCR), there are about 80 million refugees worldwide.  This number comes close to the total population of Germany.  Pray for God’s compassion to be poured upon these refugees as they seek safety and hope, and that they will become recipients of the gospel in action and witnesses of the gospel wherever they go.
