Prières quotidiennes
Frank and Josie
Frank and Josie are part of AIM’s Borderless Team in the UK. Josie writes, “Being at the beginning of this new ministry where there is no structure to step into has felt like walking in the dark. Making connections and trying new avenues for ministry all take a lot of time. Sometimes an avenue opens up and sometimes it closes. I am not surrounded by the people I am trying to reach and so it takes more inventive ways to implant yourself into people’s lives. This is all a steep learning curve for both Frank and I.” Pray that they will know the Lord walking with them in this transition and leading them into fruitful discipling relationships.
John and Zoe Putman
John and Zoe Putman serve at Rift Valley Academy (RVA); AIM’s boarding school which educates and disciples the children of missionaries, in Kijabe, Kenya. RVA plays a crucial role in AIM’s vision to see Christ-centred Churches amongst all African Peoples. The families whose children board or live there are involved in mission with some of the hardest to reach people groups in Africa. Many work in the north in conditions very inhospitable to Christians, or in unofficial war zones, or drought and famine-ridden areas, but they’re all working towards calling people home to Jesus forever. Pray for some new students arriving who have been evacuated from Eastern DR Congo. Pray for a good transition for them and for the peace that passes understanding to be a real and constant presence.
Mission Tagline
Pray that the Lord will continue to help all involved with AIM to fruitfully partner with churches as we seek to reach Africa’s unreached.
Arab People
Join us in praying for Arab people living in the Maghreb – the North Western part of Africa. Almost two years ago, Passion Week 2023, several believers in Libya were taken from their homes and streets and put in prison. Now the announcement of their verdict has been postponed until Passion Week 2025 (Tuesday, April 15th.) The timing is significant. As Jesus allowed himself to be arrested, he said: This is the hour of the power of darkness (Luke 22:53). We continue to pray together remembering those who are suffering… let us not stop. As Lent has begun and we remember the dark days before the cross… please keep praying for God’s children suffering around the world.
Ruth Mahood
Ruth Mahood serves as a counsellor with AIMCare at Tumaini Counselling Centre in Nairobi. Pray for her as she leads the team in a formal review process and as they develop and define together a new role of AIM Care Manager, replacing the Clinical Team Leader position. The purpose of this change is to allow AIM Care to better align its leadership structure with current needs and adapt to the changes and new initiatives within AIM. The team are honoured to continue providing mental health services to those in need and are excited to see how this openness to change might glorify God and benefit his people.
Zillah Whitehouse
Zillah Whitehouse serves as a Physiotherapist at the Mbarara University of Science and Technology, working alongside national colleagues in treatment, training and discipleship. Praise God for the opportunity to teach a course on worldviews and ethics to the physiotherapy students as part of their curriculum and be able to have deep conversations on the concepts of truth and belief. Pray for the finalist students at the university who are attending a training course to help them study the Bible and think about ways in which their faith will impact their life after campus. Ask that they will be prepared to stand firm in the challenges ahead and consider where God may want them to work as a witness for him.
Mix and Katie Miner
Mix and Katie Miner serve at Rift Valley Academy (RVA). Katie is making sure that students who need help in different areas, like feeling lonely or having troubles with their peers, are cared for. It is a challenging, but vital role. She visited an orphanage called Valley Light, where her sister-in-law works. It is located near a major truck stop on the road to Uganda. Truck stops mean a lot of drugs, alcohol, and prostitution. This leads to babies being discarded in the ditch by the road. It is heartbreakingly dark, but the orphanage lives up to its name: bringing light to the valley.
Safina Street Network
Safina Street Network is an outreach working with vulnerable children and young people in Tanzania. Praise the Lord for their new Director of Ministry, Nicholaus Duma, who with the help of Safina, was able to leave living on the streets, complete his school education, and obtain a bachelor’s degree in social work. He has been working for Safina since 2013. His vision and prayer is to support staff so they can give children and young people the best possible care, spiritually, psychologically, educationally, and physically, all with a godly upbringing. He hopes that they will become responsible and independent young people with a bright future. Just as the Lord has done in his life.
Expression of our Mission
Pray that we at AIM would indeed be serving and equipping the church of Jesus Christ to make disciples of the peoples of Africa: partnering with churches, reaching Africa’s unreached.
