Bangladesh

  • Kenneth Eagleton – Pray for our partners as they are in the process of acquiring land for the future Conference Center and working with a ministry that will be drawing up the engineer/architectural plans for the construction. Pray that the Lord will guide them in this process. 

Brazil

  • Kenneth Eagleton – Pray for Pastor Walter as he and his family are planting a new church in Uberlândia. 

Bulgaria

  • Tim & Lydia Awtrey – Praise God for new people attending the church. Pray that God will give us more opportunities to have one-on-one deep conversations with believers and non-believers this summer. 
  • Jonathan & Amy Postlewaite – Please pray for the many young people from our churches in Bulgaria who will be going to Christian camps in the coming weeks. Pray that God will use the time away from their homes to help the Christians to grow in their faith and those who have not yet trusted in Christ for salvation to see their need for salvation.
  • Trif & Vanya Trifonov – We thank God for the successful remodeling of our church auditorium in New Life Church Varna! Please pray for us to raise the money needed for the kitchen unit, chairs, and audio & video systems.

Ecuador

  • Adam & Carol Duncan – We are thankful that the national protests ended Thursday after 19 days. The government and the opposition group have reached some agreements. Continue to pray for our language learning and transitions later this year.  

France

  • Bryson Foulks – Please pray for me as I travel to Illinois this weekend to preach and present on Sunday morning and evening (July 10). 
  • Matt & Cristina Price – We praise the Lord for five new believers who were baptized in the waters of the Atlantic Sunday. Pray that they will grow and stand strong in their faith.

India

  • Kenneth Eagleton – Praise the Lord for another report from our partners that two more women demonstrated publicly their decision to follow Christ. Praise the Lord for another report of a new church plant. Another partner reports that they have seen a number of new Christ-followers and those who have demonstrated their faith publicly in the water. A new church building was dedicated last month and five more are under construction. 

Japan

  • Hannah Goucher – Please pray for me as I continue to travel and fundraise.
  • Jack & Ashley Ketteman – Thank you for praying for our family. We are all completely recovered now. We are very close to being fully funded! Please pray that the remaining commitments will come in soon and that our paperwork will be processed quickly so that we can apply for our visas to return to Japan.
  • Nathan & Linda Snow – Please pray for the logistics of our move from Hokkaido to Okinawa. Linda and all the kids except for Noah (12th grade) have gone on ahead to Okinawa. They are beginning to get the apartment ready to move in. Debbie Griffin and Ruth McDonald will be helping her prepare the apartment. Noah and I (Nathan) will leave Hokkaido this Saturday. We will take a 20-hour car ferry with what belongings we can fit in our van to the island of Honshu. After some JEMA mission meetings in Tokyo, Noah will fly from there to Okinawa, and Nathan will take an 18-hour ferry ride to Kyushu on Tuesday evening. From there, I will drive for several hours, then on Thursday, the 14th take a 24-hour ferry ride to Okinawa. This is a very, very big transition for our family. Please pray for us as we move, and as we adjust to our new ministry roles based out of Okinawa, Japan.
  • Daniel & Kate Speer – Daniel is traveling to Missouri with the oldest two kids while Kate is keeping the two young ones at home this upcoming weekend. Pray for traveling mercies, for things to go well with Kate at home, and for more partners to be made as we move forward toward returning to Japan. 

Spain

  • Tim & Kristi Johnson – Thank you for your prayers as we were with ETEAM Spain these last few weeks. We had a great group of students who really seemed to get a vision for the ministry in Spain. Continue to pray for Lainey, Abigail, Emily, Stephen, Rafael, and Josh in the days and weeks to come, as they assimilate all they’ve seen and heard.
  • Neil & Mandi Morgan – Please pray for the Esperanza Church. We have begun meeting in Villanueva de la Torre, which has no evangelical work. We are in negotiations with the owner of a building to be able to rent the facility.  Please pray for these details and for God´s provision. 
  • Josh & Bethany (THP) – We have been sick off and on throughout this year. Please pray for us that we will feel better and stay better. Also, pray for some new connections we have been making. There are some exciting opportunities to bring help, hope, and healing.

Mission Family

  • Pray for our expecting missionary families: Jonathan and Michelle Chereau (France) and Doug and Miriam Bishop (Japan). Pray the babies will grow and mature as expected.
  • Pray for former missionaries struggling with a variety of health problems: Brother Carlisle Hanna (India), Jerry and Carol Pinkerton (Ivory Coast), Bobby and Sue Aycock (Brazil), Florine Coscia (Brazil), Ledgel and Sharon Ferguson (Ivory Coast and France), Glenda Fulcher (Uruguay and Panama), Mirial Gainer (Japan), Barb Haas (France), Sherwood and Vada Lee (Ivory Coast),  Amy Robinson (Uruguay), Tom Willey, Jr. (Cuba & Panama), and Don Robirds (Brazil, IM office).
