Prayer Items

Will you pray with us for dozens of couples in the local churches of Nicaragua? Please pray the Lord will give us wisdom, grace, and patience as we invest in couples! We pray for healthy marriages, not perfect ones! […]

In September, 37 high school students and five teachers from Carazo Christian Academy came to our place for a day camp. The theme was True Love. The first message was about the Gospel, and the second was about relationships. Most of them are not saved and many would not even have an interest in spiritual […]

Over the last several months, we’ve had some families and youth over to our home on Saturday evenings. We try to include a fun activity related to the Bible message. We sing, enjoy friendship, and have good evangelistic opportunities around a bonfire. Please pray for blessings. […]

This year is already jam-packed with commitments. We value your prayers for strength and endurance. Over the last few weeks, we have seen several new faces come to meetings or attend different events where the Gospel is preached. We rejoice at the effect the Gospel is having and pray for souls saved. […]

We continue to distribute tracts regularly. We are planning another printing in the early part of the new year. This will include some new titles and likely some titles that we have not printed for quite some time. We value your prayers as we prepare these tracts for distribution. […]

I am in my first year as a teacher and doing so on the mission field is amazing, but also difficult and overwhelming. Please pray for strength and guidance to get through each week and to teach in a way that honours Christ, reaches my students where they are and is sustainable for me. […]

As we try to balance public health needs with the emotional and spiritual needs of Christians struggling with isolation, several small local activities were organized this year. Unfortunately, infection numbers are on the rise again and we rest in God’s will and protection. Pray for these believers.   […]

Brenda and I have tested positive for COVID-19. Pray that we will recover completely without any lingering long-haul effects. The children are okay thus far and we anticipate a full recovery, but everything is in the Lord’s hands. We hope that we can take a small break after all is well. […]

As a local church, we have set a goal for each believer to distribute 100 tracts every month. Each one decides to whom and where they will distribute the tracts. Please pray for this effort. Each of us has been given a mission field of people to reach out to in our day-to-day activities that […]

Bible calendars and food provisions have been sent 3 times upriver into the Bosawás Rainforest. Several years ago, we were able to visit this extremely isolated area and share the Gospel. We hope to visit again in June. Pray that the aid sent will prepare the way for the Gospel. […]

Very few of the eleven assemblies in the country have functioning elders. Mark Bachert and I held a workshop where six couples from four assemblies met for teaching. Please pray for these couples, as the future of the work here may fall largely on them. They have great potential but also are facing many obstacles. […]

What a joy it was to see the yard come alive with children and teens attending a one-day camp in January. Please pray for fruit. The unsaved were pointed to the cross as the source of salvation and believers were pointed to the cross as the purpose for life. […]
