Pray for Ate P, an encouraging woman who has started holding a Bible study in her home each Thursday evening. Pray that she would grow and be strengthened as a leader.
Pray for Naynay D, who was baptized and has started attending the Bible study with Ate P. Pray for the Lord to continue solidifying her faith and revealing Himself to her.
Pray for Kuya J, a Barangay Counselor who is a strong leader in the community. He has already started studying his new Bible on his own. Pray that he would understand the scripture and be strengthened to obey.
Pray for Naynay B, a woman who shows love and discipline to the children of this community. She has told us that she has trouble understanding the scripture, so pray for clarity as she joins the Bible study with Ate P.
Pray for V, a young lady who has been leading a Bible study for the youth. Pray that she wouldn't be discouraged because of her age, but that she would be filled and eager to continue in her ministry.
Pray for Ate M, a community leader who works closely with the Barangay Captain. She shows a lot of interest in learning more and in being baptized.
Pray for Naynay M, who didn't attend our group Bible study until the last day. Pray for understanding as she studies the Word, and for a motivation to meet with others.
Pray for Kuya H and Ate A, a loving Christian couple who used to live in Manila and greatly desire to be a part of a church in their barangay. Pray that they would be bold and motivated to become leaders.
Pray for Naynay I and Naynay F, two women who seem to have a gift for gathering people together. Group studies in their homes grew throughout the week, and combined for a church service on Sunday with 17 adults in attendance. Pray for their personal growth, and that they would continue to encourage others. Pray for those attending the Bible studies throughout the week - that the Lord would continue to work in their hearts and draw them to Himself.
Pray for Ate N and her four-year-old daughter, J, who has cerebral palsy. Ate N shows a lot of interest in the Bible, asked for a list of verses that she could read. She struggles to discern between so many different teachings that she has heard, and doesn't know what to believe. Pray that God would continue to provide for them as J get older.
