Prières quotidiennes
Morgan Tierney has just completed a year with the Dukana Inbound Team in Northern Kenya. Please pray for the Africa Inland Church (AIC) in Dukana, that the shepherds will shepherd the flock and feed them, and that they will rely on the Holy Spirit and be Christ’s witnesses among fellow Gabra. Ask the Lord to help Morgan and his fiancée, Abi, as he applies for long-term service with AIM, and they seek the Lord’s leading as to where they will serve. Pray for Morgan in his ongoing theological study, to make progress in understanding and living out the glorious truths of God’s Word.
Simon and Miriam Desborough are serving in Antananarivo, Madagascar, encouraging and equipping the Malagasy church for mission, and reaching out to vulnerable women. Pray for wisdom as they process missionary candidates for AIM membership, and pray for the training to be effective and for churches to be mobilised.
Barry and Heather Mann work with Growing Nations, an organisation based in Maphutseng, Lesotho, which shares God’s love through a focus on agricultural knowledge and training. Barry also serves as AIM International’s Crisis Consultant. It seems that Lesotho is struggling in so many ways. One of the key areas that could change the future of this beautiful country is farming. Pray for wisdom to understand what Growing Nations’ role is to bring this about. Ask that the Basotho nation will rise up and become a shining light for the world. Pray for the team as they meet again after spending Christmas with loved ones, that they will be refreshed and renewed for whatever the New Year holds.
Pray for the 90,000 Swahili Arabs of the East African Coast. The Swahili Arabs live along the coasts of Tanzania and Kenya, East Africa, in an area commonly known as the Coastal Belt. They are concentrated in some of the ancient settlements along the coast and in cities such as Dar es Salaam, Tanga and Mombasa. They can also be found throughout Zanzibar and Kenya’s Lamu Islands. Pray for a breakthrough amongst the Swahili Arabs. Islam has been a stronghold along the coast of Africa for a thousand years. Pray that many would be delivered from the kingdom of darkness into the Kingdom of God’s dear Son
Pray for all in AIM as we seek to be an intercultural organisation, 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).
Jurgen and Katja Hofmann serve in Madagascar, reaching out to the Tanala people with the gospel of Jesus Christ. When they recently showed the Jesus Film in the villages of Midongy and Befotaka, the reactions were incredible as the Bible stories became clear to many. Please pray for the new brothers and sisters in Christ that they would shine and remain firm. Following Jesus is not easy when families fear ancestral punishment, and sorcerers are not happy about more Christians.
Hannah Jackson is the Child Safety Officer for AIM. Pray for wisdom in building on the work done to reduce the risk of children becoming casualties of the gospel work their parents are doing. Ask the Lord to help Hannah through a time of transition as the Swansons have now returned to the UK. Hannah has lived next door to Tony and Cath for the last year, and they’ve helped her settle into life and work in Nairobi. She has celebrated Christmas and Easter with them and has enjoyed many themed film nights together. Cath has been her friend and mentor, and Hannah has been grateful to have had this time with her. Pray for Hannah as she misses them both.
Claudia Middendorf serves the local church in Beira, Mozambique, in leadership training. She praises God for the conclusion of her classes on Bible Study Methods. The students have responded well, learned a lot and appreciated reading more of the Bible. Please pray for them as they should now read without being told by a teacher. Pray for Claudia as she should now have spare time to turn her class notes on Biblical Geography into a booklet. May it become a help to the church in understanding the reality of life in Israel as presented in the Bible.
Inge Michel serves at SEMTENA in Nampula, Mozambique, where she teaches and trains pastors and church workers. Praise the Lord for one more year of teaching completed on medium and higher levels, and for good results, all of which is encouraging for the future. Pray for the preparations for next year.
