二﹑禱告事項 Prayer Items:
1. 為格瑞那達禱告:格瑞那達是西印度群島的一個島國,它曾是法國和英國的殖民地,並於 1974 年獲得獨立。儘管全國大部分人口信仰基督教,但性氾濫的情況卻很普遍。福音派聯盟的成立是為了希望所有信徒團結起來成為國家之光。祈求格瑞那達教會將福音之光帶入他們社會的黑暗中。為福音派聯盟及其對地方教會的良好影響而讚美神。
Pray for Grenada. Grenada is an island country in the West Indies. They were colonized by France and Britain, and gained their independence in 1974. Some of their long-term issues include widespread poverty, which has caused many to work abroad and send money back home. Although most of its population identifies as Christian, sexual promiscuity is prevalent. The Evangelical Alliance has been established in the hopes of uniting to be a light to the nation. Pray that the church in Grenada will bring the light of the gospel into their society’s darkness. Praise God for the Evangelical Alliance and its good influence on the local churches.
