Prayer Requests
Pray for Our Church (EFCLA)
- Pray for Children’s Congregation. Pray that the Lord would use Director Ruth, Deacon Frank, Deacon Tony, Deacon, Charlie, and the Sunday School teachers/helpers to lead the children into knowing Jesus, following Jesus, praying to Jesus, and serving Jesus.
- Pray for Revival. Pray that there would be more people form revival prayer groups. Through group prayer, people would experience life renewal, caring and healing. And through prayer, the Lord would add more saved people to us.
- Pray for the Sick. Pray for those who are sick or infected. Pray that the Lord would heal them and restore their health.
Pray for the world
- Pray for Russia-Ukraine War. Pray that the Russia-Ukraine War would cease immediately so that there would not be any more people losing their lives and properties, and that Europe would be at peace once more.
- Pray for Algeria. In Algeria, a Muslim nation of over 43.3 million people, only 129,000 are Christians. Thus, whoever converts to the Christian faith can face severe limits to their freedoms, harassment, or even imprisonment. In fact, the government has closed down thirteen churches in the past three years. Pray that believers to persevere in their faith and for the churches in Algeria to find favor in the eyes of the government and local leaders.
