Daily prayers
Indian Ocean cyclone
The recent cyclone in the Indian Ocean has had a terrible effect on the island of Mayotte. The 140 mph winds devastated the tin shacks of the large population of undocumented migrants, and all have been entirely flattened. Larger houses with tin roofs were not spared, with roofs ripped from many. Tens of thousands are without water. Pray for effective disaster relief in the short term.
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. They are hoping today to hold baptisms with the church members in Aworobu and Lokwakwa. Please pray for all of those who are going to be baptised, and also that this would be a wonderful testimony to the wider community. Pray too for fruit from the Church of Uganda youth camp (for 12-30 yr olds) from South Karamoja that ran last week.
Inge Michel
Inge Michel serves at SEMTENA in Nampula, Mozambique, where she teaches and trains pastors and church workers. Pray for the SEMTENA leadership as they prepare to make the possibilities to study Gods Word even better known among the churches. They hope to use printed flyers, social media and visits in the churches of teachers and students.
Claire Weddell
Claire Weddell is based in Chimoio, Mozambique, working with local churches in discipleship and leadership development. She praises God for everyone who prays for the ministry of Mobilization – (that includes you!). Please pray that she and the team of mobilizers will have the opportunity to rest and be renewed spiritually over the Christmas season. Pray that they will be strengthened in their walk with God and prepared for the challenges of the year ahead.
Chris and Sarah Power
Chris and Sarah Power are based in Kijabe, Kenya. Chris is the Personnel Director for Rift Valley Academy (RVA), and Sarah teaches at RVA. The campus is currently quiet after the boarding students have all returned to spend a month with their families. Ask the Lord for a time of spiritual refreshment and rest for Chris, Sarah and the other staff over the school break. Thank the Lord that one of the girls Sarah mentors has given her life to Jesus.
Annemarie Boks

Annemarie’s parents are in their nineties, with increasingly fragile health, and she has decided to retire in 2025. There is lots to be done as her work is handed over so pray for her successor, the board, the direction of the AIDS Program, and the church in preparation for this transition.
Ruth Mahood
Ruth Mahood serves as a counsellor with AIM Care at Tumaini Counselling Centre in Nairobi. Thank the Lord for the clients who have felt heard and understood through her work.
