Prières quotidiennes
EU Autumn Conference
Give thanks for the encouraging time had by all who attended the EU Autumn Conference this past week. Pray that each person will continue to be encouraged by John Gillespie’s talks on living with heaven in the forefront of our minds. Pray that all that was shared about God’s moving through AIM Missionaries’ work will continue to inspire supporters to give, send and go.
Graham and Fiona
Graham and Fiona* served in a creative access location and are back in the UK for their final home assignment before their retirement. Give thanks that they have enjoyed visits to family and friends and feel very welcomed and supported by their sending church. Pray that they rely on God as they face a difficult situation with their tenant who refuses to move out so that they can sell their house and buy a more suitable property for their needs in retirement. Pray for a peaceful resolution and that they will be a witness of Christ’s grace and patience in this situation. *Names changed for security reasons
Autumn Conference
AIM Europe’s annual Autumn Conference begins today. The Conference is open to all to come and meet missionaries and AIM staff, hear their stories and learn how they can be involved in AIM’s work both overseas and in Europe. Pray for the UK office staff as they coordinate the practicalities of the Conference. Pray for God to bless John Gillespie as he brings God’s word to us and for each person presenting about their ministry. Pray that the Conference will be a time of mutual encouragement and spiritual refreshment for missionaries, supporters and all who attend.
Caroline Bell
Caroline Bell partners with churches in Moroto, Uganda, to envision, equip, mobilise, and encourage believers to reach out to rural Karimojong communities with the gospel. Give thanks that her local church’s outreach in a nearby village led to the community requesting a church be planted there, and that a local community leader offered his compound as a place to meet. Pry for this fledgling church, that each person attending will be renewed by God’s word and that God will bless the teaching and fellowship. Pray that more people in the village will hear the name of Jesus and want to come along to hear more.
Ben and Christelle Simonin
Ben and Christelle Simonin serve by working to make disciples among the unreached of Mayotte. Give thanks for all the love and support they have received from their church, family and friends after some complications with Christelle’s pregnancy, which meant they were unable to attend AIM’s Africa Based Orientation in August. Give thanks that they are now home and doing well. Pray for continued health and a safe delivery.
Borderless UK
Pray for AIM Europe’s Borderless team as they continue to nurture spiritual seeds sown during their Community Outreach Week in August. Pray for one Borderless worker as he seeks to connect with men from an Africa background in his community in the UK. As refugees leave his area and more arrive, it can be difficult to continue building on friendships. Pray that he will meet and befriend more refugee men and that those he is still in contact with will remember his faith in Jesus and the monumental difference Jesus has made to his life.
Rebecca Welsh
Rebecca Welsh teaches chemistry and broader science at Rift Valley Academy, (RVA) Kenya. Give thanks she has enjoyed the start of term and has already begun to feel at home. Pray for her as she plans her lessons, covers a seventh-grade girls dorm supervision when required, and settles into her accommodation on campus. Pray that she and the students will build a good rapport and that she will draw closer to the Lord in all circumstances.
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. Pray for them as they have begun their roles as Dorm Parents for seven, seventh-grade girls and are building rapport with each of them, supporting them with homework and Dorm Bible devotions each night, as well as teaching during the day. Give thanks that the girls are settling in well and pray for energy and wisdom for John and Zoe as they seek God in their interactions with these teenagers, while also supporting their daughters Sadie and Amber as they study and prepare for exams in October.
Simon and Miriam Desborough
Simon and Miriam Desborough are serving in Antananarivo, Madagascar, mobilising Malagasy Christians for God’s mission. Pray for the graduates of the Assemblies of God (AOG) mission school who are now mission candidates looking to serve in other parts of Madagascar and further afield. Pray God will give Simon and Miriam joy and discernment as they work with the AOG mission school to facilitate several weeks of cross-cultural mission training at the school. Pray for all those attending the training, that it will be useful and encouraging for those pursuing God’s call to share the gospel of Jesus with all nations.
