Sat 1. Hellen & Wycliffe – Ethiopia
ABD comes from the Ciise clan of the Somalis. We dared to share the gospel with him. He showed some initial resistance but opened up and shared how he has been seeing Jesus in his dreams. He received Christ into his life, and we baptized him in a drum of water. He joined one of the secret house churches and was regular at our Discovery Bible Study class. He showed progress in this newfound faith until one day when he suddenly asked for money, threatening to reveal to the Sheikhs and Somalis what we were doing among them. We told him, we couldn't do that and asked him to go ahead and report. We went on 3 days of prayer and fasting. To our surprise, ABD came back to the team in tears and repentance, confessing he had met with the Lord again. Since that time, he has faithfully followed the Lord and proclaimed the gospel. Please pray that he may grow into a strong believer and become an ardent advocate of his faith in Christ. Pray also for God’s continuous protection and wisdom for us.
Sun 2. Johanes - Tanzania
In July 2024, we conducted an outreach mission in Gendagenda. We reached 902 people during the door-to-door evangelism and open-air crusade. We thank the Lord for drawing 125 people into His Kingdom. I met Paulo during this outreach. He had never been in a church. As I shared the gospel message with him, the Lord touched his heart to repent of his sins and accept Jesus as His Lord and Savior. I gave him the Talking Bible and now Paulo gathers 30 people in his house to hear the Word of God, which is his own way of sharing the gospel message.
Mission to Tanga - Tanzania
Mon 3. Timothy – Kenya
We have been visiting and sharing the Good News with the villagers. We have tried to focus on men, visiting them especially early in the morning. It’s the only productive time to meet with them because most are alcoholics. Invitations to social gatherings are also good avenues to share God's Word. Pray that the message we share will bear fruit in their lives. Thank God for Lekyong'o who after backsliding for about two years has come back to faith. He and his wife are now fully committed to the Lord and the church fellowship.

Sun 9. Alusine – Sierra Leone
We have an evangelistic outreach program for all the children and youth in a community. Fanatical Muslim parents always prevent their children from attending church services. I take this program to them to win their souls to our Lord. We praise the Lord for the way this program has been drawing many children and youth to faith.
Mon 10. Nounagnon – Benin
YTE, a participant in Djougou camp shared the testimony of how the Lord helped her deal with grief in her family. She said, “I've not been together with my husband for 5 years because of a marital conflict. My heart was broken. Many people told me to forgive but I couldn't. But I decided, from what I have just heard from you, to forgive my husband and to be reconciled to him.” Her pastor was amazed at what God had done, a spontaneous transformation of her heart. The following Saturday, I assisted the couple to sit together and reconcile. Personally, I see God fulfilling his message to me: “I will use you to help couples in difficulty and the marginalized and troubled children and youth.” To God be the glory.
Tue 11. Elizabeth – Tanzania
Conducted one seminar for street children. In my region, many children are living on the street. We organized this seminar for them so they may have hope in God. Although society has tagged them as lost children, God wants them to be sons and daughters of His Kingdom. Six hundred people heard the gospel during the quarter. We praise God for welcoming seven of them into his kingdom.
Wed 12. Lukhanyiso – South Africa
God has given us breakthrough by opening doors to more schools, and opportunities we thought no longer existed. We have seen prayers answered in schools. We started camps. We ran a successful grade 6 camp with 130 kids aimed at preparing them for leadership in their 7th grade. We shared the gospel message with them during devotions and mentored the kids. We praise the Lord for drawing 30 kids into His Kingdom during the quarter.

Sun 16. R.D. - India
We feel a deep burden to plant more churches in challenging places, where the light of the Gospel is needed most. The harvest is truly plentiful, and we are trusting the Lord to lead us as we move forward in obedience to His call. Please pray for the new villages we are reaching, that God will prepare the hearts of the people to receive His Word. Pray for boldness and protection for our team as they step into areas where the Gospel is often met with resistance.

The procedure went well, and we are praising God for his healing touch and the skilled hands of the medical team.

Tue 18. Uttam - India
God has placed a deep burden on my heart to reach the far places where the Gospel has not yet been preached. These areas are often remote and challenging to access, but I am committed to carrying the message of salvation to those who have never heard it. Struggles with transportation are one of the significant challenges I face in fulfilling this vision. I am currently relying on a bicycle, which makes it difficult to travel long distances, especially to remote villages. Please pray for the Lord’s help to overcome this obstacle.

Wed 19. Subratha - India:
Sapan from Kashi village was once trapped in the chains of alcoholism and worldly living. His life was in turmoil and to make matters worse, he suffered severe demonic oppression which left him and his family in despair, with no hope for his survival. I shared the Gospel of Jesus Christ with him during my visits, explaining the power of God’s love and the hope of salvation. He was desperate for deliverance and began to seek prayers night and day, longing for freedom from the torment he was experiencing. As we fasted and prayed fervently, Sapan experienced complete deliverance from the demonic oppression that had plagued him. Today, he is a changed man, free from his past bondages, living in peace, and filled with hope for the future. Thank God for his deliverance and the powerful testimony he bears in the village of Kashi.

Please pray that our Lord will bless our ministry with abundant fruit and accompany us to our new field.
Fri 21. Subendu - India
We have seen good results. In S. village, a Ho Tribe village, 30 people meet regularly for worship, and in N. village, 9 people consistently gather for worship, demonstrating the impact of the Gospel in these areas. Pradeep, a member of the Ho Tribe, was born and brought up in a community deeply rooted in its traditions. He had been enduring severe stomach pain for an extended period, and his condition left him feeling hopeless and in despair. By God’s grace, we reached out to him during this difficult time, shared the Gospel with him, and counseled him. Through the power of prayer and the message of Christ, Perdeep found hope and comfort that he had never experienced before. This encounter became a turning point in his life, not only in finding relief but also in discovering the love and power of God. Please pray for Perdeep as he grows in his faith and experiences the healing and love of Christ in his life.

Mon. 24. D.H - Bhutan
In the past three months, I have been able to share the Gospel with approximately 50 people. While there have been no water baptisms during this period, I am encouraged by the seeds that have been planted. I trust that in God’s timing, these seeds will grow and bear fruit for His glory. One of the most joyful moments in the past three months was organizing a youth training program. We had planned and prepared for about 30 participants, but to our amazement, nearly 60 youth attended! It was a humbling experience to see such enthusiasm among the young people, and we felt overwhelmed with gratitude for the opportunity to invest in their spiritual growth. Thank God for this exciting response from the youth.
Tue 25. Ula. - Bangladesh
The new generation of youth heard the gospel and are trying to come out from the Buddhist faith. However, because of pressure from their family and society, they are reluctant to come out into the open. They don't have enough boldness to live as a follower of Jesus Christ. Please pray that those who hear the word may understand fully the way of salvation through Jesus Christ and receive the boldness to stand for their faith among their people.
Wed 26. D.V. - Vietnam
Thanks be to God for His provision in difficult times. It has allowed me to focus on the ministry which has been fruitful.
