Prayer Requests
Pray for Our Church (EFCLA)
- Pray for Renovation. Pray that the renovation project of restrooms in the main sanctuary and worship hall would accomplish by the end of this month. Pray that the Lord would provide fifty thousand dollars for the renovation before it is finished.
- Pray for Happiness Groups. Pray that the BESTs would continue to join every Happiness Group meeting. Pray that the Holy Spirit would help the BESTs to accept the Gospel.
- Pray for the Sick. Pray for those who are sick. Pray that the Lord would heal them and restore their health. Pray that little Abraham would soon recover from his surgery.
Pray for the world
- Pray for COVID in California. The California State government has allowed people who 65 years and older, people who have certain medical conditions, and people who work in certain institutional setting to receive their booster dose at least six months after they received their second dose of Pfizer vaccine from Oct 1. Pray that those who are eligible for their booster dose would soon follow government’s suggestions. Also, pray that the vaccination rate in California would exceed 70% soon.
- Pray for Suriname. Suriname, a country with less than a million people, is located in the northern area of South America. The state guarantees freedom of religion so Hinduism, Christianity, and Islam coexist among their diverse people groups. Among them, the Javanese are nominally Muslim and the Hindustani are Hindu. Pray that the truth of Christ will take root among the Javanese and Hindustani and that Suriname, a multiethnic society, will become one through faith in Christ Jesus.
