二﹑禱告事項 Prayer Items:
1. 為愛沙尼亞禱告：愛沙尼亞是前蘇聯成員國中，第一個通過同性戀婚姻合法化的國家，同性伴侶僅透過網路就能登記申請結婚。愛沙尼亞境內基督徒約佔總人口49%，大多數為俄羅斯東正教會和信義宗路德教派。求主使那些為了肉體的情慾而違反神律法的人，能回到正道上，不要繼續在罪惡中沈淪。
Prayer for Estonia. Estonia, a former Soviet Union member state, is the first among these countries to legalize same-sex marriage. Same-sex couples can apply for marriage registration online. Approximately 49% of the population in Estonia identify as Christians, with the majority being part of the Russian Orthodox Church and the Lutheran Evangelical Church. Let us pray that those who violate God’s laws for the sake of fleshly desires may return to the righteous path and not continue to live in sin.
2. 為7/29-8/2 El Cajon暑期短宣禱告：願主加添信心與能力給所有團員，放膽傳福音見證主的道，求神使用VBS的敬拜歌曲和信息，讓這些穆斯林的年輕人更加認識耶穌，願意呼求耶穌，信靠耶穌。也禱告藉著探訪家庭，讓這些新移民感受到耶穌的愛和真實。
Prayer for the El Cajon Summer Mission Trip (July 29 – August 2).

We pray that God will use the worship songs and messages in the VBS to help these Muslim youths come to know Jesus better, be willing to call on Jesus, and trust in Him. We also pray that through family visits, these new immigrants will feel the love and reality of Jesus.
3. 為教會弟兄姊妹渴慕在話語上的學習和成長禱告：今年洛福教會的主題是裝備年，在每個主日有關於認識聖經，認識基督教信仰，和如何把信仰應用到生活中的主日學課程。求神幫助弟兄姊妹對神有渴慕尋求的心，願意接受造就裝備，能活出基督門徒的樣式討神喜悅，並致力於完成神所交託給教會的使命。
Prayer for the church brothers and sisters’ desire for learning and growth in the Word. This year, the theme of EFCLA is the Year of Equipping.
