Prayer Items

Please pray for our camps this summer. The government department that is responsible for youth and children is putting together a plan for how all camps will be run. We’ve seen the preliminary plans and if nothing changes, we’ll likely have to cancel all camps. The decision will be made at the end of May. […]

Please continue to pray for the small group studies, counselling and pastoral mentoring I do. I could use prayer for insight and wisdom in helping people work through their problems. Joanna is involved in volunteer work in our town and would appreciate prayer for her contacts. Pray for opportunities to share the gospel message. […]

There is an influence of Postmodernism on everyday life in Europe. Postmodernism does not rule out religion necessarily, however, the ‘religions’ are very different from Christianity. Namely, you may believe what you want and every opinion is equally right. This gives us great opportunities to witness as there’s more of an openness to talk about […]

For several months, I have been visiting homes in Houthalen. There are about 20 addresses I go back to because I have had a good conversation and left literature. I visited a couple about 6 times, he denies the existence of God, she believes there is a God but does not know Him. So many […]

Our involvement in training younger leaders is a great encouragement, as we see younger couples willing to take up responsibility in the assemblies of Houthalen and Zwartberg. Please continue to pray for them. […]

I have started visiting people at their homes again. So many are oblivious to the Lord’s coming, in fact most deny His existence yet many are open to a conversation. Each time I go, people hear the Gospel and is a spiritual battle. Pray that I will keep going! […]

Pray for the churches in Belgium. Most of the churches that Peter is involved with are struggling to have younger people committed to serving. We need the next generation to take over, yet many leave their churches and start looking around for another church. […]

We are continuing with 2 study groups targeting potential leaders in the church. We are thankful for the commitment of the 26 younger people who want to be actively involved. Pray for their preparation to take over as the baton is passed their way. […]

We had another Iranian Bible study at our home. All are eager to learn we are going through Acts. Everyone was touched by Acts 7, where we see that Moses was also a ‘refugee’. Some have permission to stay in Belgium, while others have been waiting for up to two years. […]

With Easter just around the corner we are busy preparing for a special Sunday service, evangelism around both churches the weeks before Easter, and an Easter dinner with a gospel message for the poor in Houthalen. […]

Refugees are being processed slowly and our ministry to help them is limited. Pray that they would come to know Christ through their contact with Christians while they are with us. Over a hundred heard the Gospel and received literature through the church. Several have received a roof over their heads and care for their […]

Last Sunday five young people and a lady were baptised. It was wonderful to hear testimonies of these second generation kids telling how they had personally gotten to know the Lord! Pray for them. […]
