Prières quotidiennes
Simon and Miriam Desborough
Simon and Miriam Desborough are serving in Antananarivo, Madagascar, encouraging and equipping the Malagasy church for mission and reaching out to vulnerable women. Three of the vulnerable women continue to be committed to the three-month program and the team are making plans with at least two of them to start their own businesses. It’s a joy to hear of their growing interest in God and their growing self-worth and skills as they experience the holistic love of Jesus in word and action. At the end of March they are welcoming a placement student from All Nations Christian College to work with the programme for three weeks. She is a French/Malagasy young lady so pray for the reciprocal learning that will take place during this time and that it will be instrumental for her future.
Chad
Our Father in heaven, on your throne, reigning over Chad, Hallowed be your name, you are worthy of the praise of the peoples of Chad, The people of Chad are distressed and helpless, sheep without a shepherd. Lord, send workers into the harvest field from outside Chad and from within its own church. Lord, may these workers find refuge under your wings, may your favour rest on your workers, and establish the work of their hands. Daily may your salvation be proclaimed, accomplishing your desires, and achieving your purposes transforming the distressed to deliverance transforming the helpless into hopeful transforming and growing the flock to follow the shepherd. Your kingdom come; your will be done in Chad as it is in heaven.
Kathleen
Kathleen is a member of AIM’s Borderless team, working with the African diaspora in Scotland. A few weeks ago, a young African lady attended one of the English Conversation Cafes and as Kathleen chatted with her, she discovered she was from Uganda. You should have seen her face as Kathleen greeted her in “Luganda” and welcomed her to Edinburgh. She was just bursting with joy. Pray that this relationship will prove spiritually fruitful. On Mondays Kathleen meets many African refugees and immigrants as she undertakes Parish Nursing. Please pray for good relationships and gospel conversations.
Chadian Arabs
Pray for AIM as we seek to foster caring communities among AIM members, ministry partners, and local believers. Ask the Lord that, in the power of His Spirit, we would love, serve, encourage and admonish each other in order to grow in unity and demonstrate the truth of Jesus to the world. (John 17:21-23)
Caring Communities

Returned from service
Please be praying for those who have had to return from their service because of ill health. Pray that God would heal, that their faith would grow as they reflect on lessons learned during their time with AIM, and that next steps and jobs would come quickly in God’s perfect timing!
Claudia Middendorf
Claudia Middendorf serves the local church in Beira, Mozambique, in leadership training. Please pray for the three young students in her new Bible study group (Francisco, Luisa and Kelven). May they have real encounters with Jesus as they study His Word together.
Short Term
During a recent short-term trip, J was talking to women in a local shop about faith and religion. The fact that J is from North Africa and speaks Arabic, but isn’t Muslim, was a great opening for a conversation about Jesus. The women also brought over a local Arabic speaking man. He was very open, and God gave J the opportunity to share her faith with him! Pray that others will water these seeds and that the Lord will give the increase.
Rex and Ruby
Rex and Ruby* have served in a variety of creative access locations, seeking to share the gospel with those who have yet to hear it. They are currently visiting three teams, as well as exploring a site for a new group. They will also visit their previous place of ministry where they hope to meet up with friends. Please ask for a smooth journey given that it is in Ramadan, good connections with their team members and local friends, and opportunities to share the light of Jesus as they travel. * Name changed for security reasons.
