Prières quotidiennes

Sandrine

In partnership with the local church, Sandrine shares the love of Jesus with North African immigrants in Montréal, Canada. Praise the Lord for the invitation to the home of two Muslim women to break the fast during Ramadan. The food was endless and excellent, and the evening gave Sandrine a better understanding of their customs and religion. However, it was painful to see them in this slavery of Islam, counting on their good deeds to try to attain God’s favour. What a grace to know Jesus our liberator. Pray for these families to hear the voice of the Good Shepherd.

Hannah Jackson

Hannah Jackson is the Assistant Child Safety Officer for AIM. Pray that the team will be able to implement and disseminate what they learned at the global CSPN (the international safeguarding network that AIM is part of) conference in Florida. The theme was, ‘The Good, The Bad and the Digital: helping children walk safely in digital spaces’. Pray too for strengthening relationships with Tumaini Counselling Centre, part of AIM’s member care provision, in order to support families and keep children safe.

Ruth

Ruth* works on an Indian Ocean Island, seeking to share the gospel with people who have never had it explained to them. Give thanks for new connections, deepening of relationships, and some good chats about why she didn’t need to be fasting during Ramadan to earn favour, because the Lord Jesus has already opened the way to heaven. Pray for the local body of believers as they would like to do an event with the AIM team at Easter time. Please pray that plans will come together and it would be a good time to encourage each other and celebrate together. * Name changed for security reasons.

AIM in Southern Africa

Pray for the process of merging the ministries of AIM South Africa with the AIM Southern Region to establish a new region, the AIM Southern Africa region. Tshepang Basupi is the Director of this newly merged region, which unites the functions of both sending and receiving missionaries. Pray that this strategic consolidation will better reflect the current and future realities of global missions and will greatly enhance efforts to minister to the unreached peoples of Southern Africa.

The Didinga

The Didinga live in Southern Sudan, farming and raising cattle. Pray that they would be rescued from their worship of the spirits, gods and dead ancestors. Pray against the influence of the rainmakers, who perform certain rituals and are seen to carry great influence and power in the community. Pray too for peace in South Sudan, which is at risk of another civil war. 400,000 people died as a result of a terrible civil war from 2013-2018 and the peace agreement that ended that war seems to be unravelling.

Interculturalism

Pray for all in AIM as we seek to be an intercultural organization, where members and leaders from many cultures and nations feel welcome and actively participate. Pray that we would be able to celebrate the diversity, beauty, and glorious future of the Lord’s Church. (Rev 5:9-10, Gal 3:28).

Pablo*

Pablo* serves in West Africa, where he continues to use English teaching as a door-opener for developing relationships for the gospel. He recently had the joy of baptising Mo*. Mo is encouraged to know that so many all around the world, are praying for him. Here is a favourite verse he wanted to share with those praying: If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent. Psalm 91:9-10. May we all know God’s peace as we make the Lord our refuge, as Mo has done. * Name changed for security reasons.

Learning other worldviews

Praise the Lord for the opportunity one of our members has to teach a worldview course at a university. One of their students is a Muslim Imam who has intentionally acquired a New Testament as he was challenged by his teacher’s knowledge of Islam and wanted to give the same effort to understanding Christianity. Although this is currently an academic exercise, pray that the Lord would touch his heart and mind as he reads it.

Amelia*

Amelia* serves in West Africa, sharing the gospel with those in a region that is very opposed to the message of Jesus Christ. She writes, “There are a number of challenges here to staying healthy – whether that be physically or emotionally. It feels like a significant proportion of workers here are facing struggles including chronic illnesses, depression, hard family situations back at home, team dysfunction, as well as just a general weariness whether physical or spiritual. Ask that God would bring healing, would renew unity, and restore joy. We live in a physical desert, but that doesn’t mean that we need also live in a spiritual desert with parched and weary souls. Ask that the Spirit would empower us to live here in ways that would cause people to constantly be asking us the reason for the hope that we have.” Pray that some time away from her ministry location would be refreshing for Amelia* in all the ways she needs it to be! * Name changed for security reasons.
