Prayer Items

September brings the final three months of the school year, so a few students will soon be leaving us. We pray that as they move on in their education they will remember all that they learned at Sakeji School. Namely, a reverence for God’s Word, trust in His Son as Saviour, and a desire to […]

Our great-grandson has a very complex congenital condition. He had open heart surgery yesterday. The doctors said that it is a very complicated surgery and anything should be expected. The surgery went well and was successful. He is now in the ICU in stable condition, breathing on his own. Thanks be to God! […]

Our great-grandson and his mother flew to Egypt this week. He has a very complex congenital condition. His mother was told that he may not be able to have the necessary surgery. Please pray that he will get the needed help. […]

We are almost through our second term of the school year at Sakeji. We always look forward to the parents coming and the interactions we can have with them. In recent terms, we have seen fewer parents here at the school. Please pray for parents to come and for opportunities to share the Gospel with […]

Please pray for the kids in our backyard Sunday School class. The older ones speak English well. The little ones speak Nyanja or Bemba, so we are trying to learn some verses in Nyanja alongside them. It gives them a few laughs! Please pray for Joanne, who is starting a weekly Bible study with some […]

Gordon and Ruth Hanna both had cataract surgeries on June 23rd. Gordon’s surgery went well, but Ruth’s did not. During surgery, her retina was detached. She needs an additional surgery to fix that. Afterward, she will need to lay face-down for at least two weeks. Her surgery is scheduled for June 20th. Prayers are appreciated. […]

Work among the deaf community continues. We are about to offer sign language materials for those who wish to learn it in order to communicate with their friends and neighbours. The deaf continue to be ostracized, even to the point of being persecuted because “God made them deaf.” Pray for blessing and salvation. […]

I have been asked to speak at Senior Girls’ camp July 1 to 5 and eleven messages are required! Many girls who come to camp are not believers, so please pray that they will come to know Christ as Saviour. Pray also for growth in spiritual understanding among those who already believe. Lastly, pray that […]

Please pray for the Bible study in Zambezi. During a recent trip to Zambezi, more people who sell produce in the local market asked if they could attend the Bible study held every Monday afternoon. We pray that they will follow through and come. […]

Please continue to pray for the work in Chitokoloki. The village work has seen an increase in adults attending. Join us in praying that the idea that church is for women and children would fade and more men would come out to hear the Good News. […]

Classes and outreaches have resumed this week. The local high school has had an increase of 100 students this year, so additional classrooms are being constructed. Our prayer is for the growth of believers and the salvation of those who have not yet trusted the Saviour. […]
