Pray for Aafra*, a new Christian. Aafra, as a veiled Muslim woman, had been abused by an evil spirit for a long time. The spirit often caused seizures. Aafra wanted to become a doctor, but the constant seizures forced her to change to nurses training. The demon was angered further and became more aggressive when Aafra got married. The spirit kept Aafra from becoming pregnant. Aafra and her husband sought help from witch doctors but saw no results. They eventually divorced. Aafra later remarried but the problems continued. After hearing a powerful message from an evangelist, Aafra chose to give her life to Jesus. An AGWM global worker shares, “During this prayer, she saw the demon flee from her life.” Aafra is now pregnant, the fulfillment of a long-time desire. Pray for Aafra as she continues to practice Christianity in secret and experience the Lord’s freedom. Pray for Aafra’s safety from persecution should anyone find out she has decided to walk with Jesus. Ask God to continue interceding in the Muslim world, breaking chains, and creating new life.

Pray for young people in Europe. The VanBriggle family serves in Belgium and are four years into a church plant. A group of young people have begun to attend their church — “young adults who have been raised in a secular society where God is no longer central to their worldview.” One of the young men, Alex, chose to follow Jesus and soon shared the gospel at his high school. When one of his friends came with Alex to church, he decided to follow Jesus, as well. Both friends wanted to be water baptized. They invited their friends to watch, most who had no church experience. About 40 people came. The VanBriggles say, “Sometimes you pray for something to happen, and you marvel when God answers your prayers. … Slowly, one by one, their friends are coming to Jesus!” Pray for Alex and his friends as they grow in faith and lead other friends to Jesus. Pray that the VanBriggles will continue to reach Europe’s secular youth.

Pray with us for a Live Dead worker ministering on the Silk Road who befriended a local woman in her fifties. For two years, the woman welcomed the worker into her family and home. While talking about religion one day, the woman explained that for Muslims, it is crucial to do good works in the hopes they outweigh one’s sins. She said that she believes how you think or feel doesn’t matter, only whether you do good deeds. Then she told the Live Dead worker, “I think what you believe is better for people. For us, we just focus on looking like a good person … it seems like you and other Christians are changed from the inside because of your faith.” The Live Dead worker believes this is the Holy Spirit working in her heart, and that He will continue to move in her life. Pray for this Muslim woman. Pray that the Holy Spirit continues nudging her toward the gospel. Pray that the team member ministering to her will act as a mirror of God’s image. Pray other Muslims in similar situations experience Jesus.

Pray with us for a group of people from Myanmar who recently experienced a miracle. As a man was riding his motorcycle at night, he missed a turn and had an accident. He broke several bones and injured his head, causing him to become unconscious. Doctors at a local hospital treated him, but told his wife that there was “little hope” for his recovery. The man’s wife, a Burmese Buddhist, “began to pray and read a Bible someone had given her.” When her husband was then transferred to a different hospital, doctors could find no remnants of any broken bones or brain swelling. The wife shared with AGWM global worker, Carol Feigleson, “God is really God, and He is answering my prayers!” Pray for this couple and the gospel seeds being sown in their lives. Pray that they will continue to experience God’s power. Pray that they, along with others in their community, move towards God’s salvation.

Ruth grew up in a Christian home in a Southeast Asia country but wasn’t sure if God was real. She believed a good education would bring honor to her family and put extreme pressure on herself to pass the university qualifying exam and earn a degree. Her dream shattered after falling 0.25% short of the necessary score. “I felt unworthy, so I decided I had to die,” says Ruth. Standing above a 10-foot-deep lake with no knowledge of how to swim, she prepared to jump. Suddenly, a voice from the sky interrupted her, “Ruth, Ruth, Ruth, I did not create you for this reason.” It was then Ruth realized God was real. Her life belonged to Him. Pray for Ruth and others like her. Praise God that He intervened in Ruth’s life at such a critical moment. Pray that others in similar situations experience the same intervention and new purpose. Pray for Ruth as she lives life knowing she was created for a reason, and she is loved by God.

Join us in praising God for a successful children’s outreach in South Africa. The Lands, global workers, held this outreach in a local neighborhood with five churches represented. They began with 70 children from those churches. After a parade through the community, they ended with nearly 190 children. The Lands share, “We danced, we laughed, we snacked, we talked about Jesus with the children.” Several children accepted Jesus into their hearts after hearing the gospel. Pray for these children today. Pray that each child who made a salvation decision continues to grow in his or her faith. Pray that the still unreached children in Africa will hear the gospel.

Please pray for a new church plant in Brazil. The Orantes family works with King’s Castle in Brazil. Their team is beginning work on a new church plant in Nova Iguaçu. Not only will this new church reach the people of Nova Iguaçu, but it will also allow newly trained church leaders to gain practical ministry experience. The Orantes family also serves with Impact School of Ministry, and they say, “We have seen the need and feel the responsibility to position the leaders around us who have gone through the Impact School of Ministry to exercise their calling in ministry.” They ask for prayer “that the Lord will continue to establish His Church, and work powerfully through the whole team bringing about salvation and transformation, for God's glory.” Pray with us today: - Pray over the early stages of this new church plant. - Pray that the future congregation experiences Jesus in a powerful way. - Pray for the new church leaders as they experience ministry.

Join us as we pray for global workers David and Carol Schmidt in central Africa. The Schmidts’ ministry largely focuses on tabernacle building, giving communities a church structure as a center for their ministry. The Schmidts share that as of just this year, there are already seven new tabernacles in villages across their area. The Schmidts’ team worked on another exciting building project in February: a new Bible school that will house 24 students. This school will also have running water, alleviating the need for students to carry their own water. The Schmidts ask for prayer over their safety as they travel to build tabernacles and minister in theological schools. Please also pray that more workers would answer God’s call to Africa.

The Phillips, global workers in Europe, recently had opportunity to participate in a feeding program in Roma villages. Pastors tell them that as a result of these programs, the children in their communities are no longer begging for scraps of food. The Phillips write, “These kids are walking away with full bellies; however, our goal is to see these children no longer needing to be fed. We are praying and believing in God for a transformed community.” Roma churches are rapidly growing. Pray for them as dozens of people are coming to know Christ and being baptized. Pray also for other initiatives including a mothers’ club, girls’ empowerment groups, tutoring, and small discipleship groups that are launching in those communities this spring. Pray that God would use these initiatives to radically change the lives in Roma communities.

Rebekah Reed, a global worker in Germany, just moved into an apartment in a rural Bavarian farm village. On the street, Rebekah heard a woman calling after her, yelling, “Hello, are you the new neighbor?” Reed discovered that this woman is a friendly German named Mallory. While having tea together, Rebekah learned that Mallory works in the Army Behavioral Clinic. There, she counsels soldiers in substance abuse recovery. Rebekah writes, “She is interested in learning more about our church because of the people she works with. ‘They are so lost,’ she told me. ‘They need something.’ I nodded, amazed that even someone who does not profess to follow Jesus can see the spiritual need in this community.” Pray for Mallory and others in this farm village who do not follow Jesus. Pray that God would enable global workers to lead these people to Him.

According to global workers, “2023 was the most violent year in Ecuador’s history with over 7,500 homicides.” This ranks Ecuador as the 11th most violent country alongside Syria, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Despite the darkness that overwhelms this nation, the Lord is moving. Last year, global workers in Ecuador saw 2,131 people decide to follow Christ and baptized 1,670. Recently, the violence has escalated, causing the nation’s president to declare a 60-day state of emergency. This includes curfews, increased military presence, and “an all-out war on the drug cartels.” Pray that God continues to protect global workers in Ecuador and that His light shines in the darkness. Pray also that many come to know Christ and seek baptism in His name.

Global workers Peter and Delia Breit received a phone call asking them to share Jesus with a local family. In response, they arrived at a brand-new church building where more than 20 people were in attendance, awaiting what the Breits would share. The Breits learned that a brother in the family immigrated to the United States and joined an evangelical church. After accepting Christ as his Savior, he began sending money to his siblings in Mexico. He instructed them to use the money to build a church where they could learn what it means to be a disciple of Jesus. As Peter and Delia spoke in that church, many of the brother’s family members decided to follow Christ. As global workers visit the village weekly to disciple these new believers, pray that God would continue to open new doors for unbelievers in Mexico to hear the good news.

Join us in prayer for the work being done in Cameroon. Global workers David and Carol Schmidt have built five tabernacles in the western region of Cameroon. This was made possible through donations and support. These tabernacles serve as structures for church gatherings in these neighborhoods. The Schmidts were also able to distribute 500 water filters to a local community and share the gospel. In response to the distribution, one local family shares, “We used to trek about 4km to get drinking water, stand in a long line before being served, and then look for means to transport the water. This was not only time-consuming, but also very tiring. Since receiving the filters, we have filtered water from our well and have not had any stomach complaints for nearly two months. What a wonderful gift!” Please pray that God will continue to open doors for unbelievers to hear the gospel and develop a relationship with Christ.

As the war continues in Israel and Gaza, please pray for individuals and families affected by this crisis. Those in Israel and the surrounding areas are consistently monitoring the developments of this conflict. We are praying this does not escalate into a regional crisis that encompasses other nations and results in the loss of more lives. One global worker writes, “Our hearts break that every Jew, Hamas, and Muslim who has died without knowing Jesus now faces eternal death. We also mourn the loss of Messianic Jews and Arab Christians. We know that true and lasting peace only comes when we follow the Prince of Peace and can love our enemy and seek reconciliation, not retaliation.” This global worker also shared that he was reminded of the kindness of the Lord toward those who don’t seek Him. Please join us in prayer for those who do not know the Lord and for the families mourning the loss of loved ones. Pray that the Holy Spirit will empower believers and that unbelievers will be drawn to the hope found only in Christ. Isaiah 65:1-3, “I was ready to be sought by those who did not ask for me; I was ready to be found by those who did not seek me. I said, ‘Here I am, here I am,’ to a nation that was not called by my name. I spread out my hands all the day to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, following their own devices; a people who provoke me to my face continually.”

This past weekend, the terrorist group Hamas launched an attack against Israel and began a war that continues to escalate. Gaza is completely under siege and more than 1,800 lives have been lost between the two sides, with thousands more injured. Our thoughts and prayers go out to all those affected by the ongoing violence in Israel and Palestine. We are heartbroken to witness pain, suffering, and trauma. We earnestly pray for peace and righteousness to prevail. May God comfort every person who mourns and strengthen every family who grieves, and extend peace to surpass human understanding that navigates the difficulties and uncertainties that lie ahead. We believe that God sees, hears, and cares deeply for the brokenhearted, wounded, and afflicted. “Lord, Jesus, may your love, grace, and compassion prevail in a broken world and may light shine in the face of darkness that brings healing to the nations.” Lamentations 3:55-57, “I called on your name, Lord, from the depths of the pit. You heard my plea: ‘Do not close your ears to my cry for relief.’ You came near when I called you and you said, ‘Do not fear.’” Psalm 108:4-6, “For great is your love, higher than the heavens; your faithfulness reaches to the skies. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; let your glory be over all the earth. Save us and help us with your right hand, that those you love may be delivered.”

Join us in prayer for Maputo, Mozambique. Global workers Kyle and Porscha Coffman began their ministry in Maputo, Mozambique in September and are already witnessing the Lord move. The Coffmans were given the opportunity to engage in campus outreach and interact and pray for students, inviting them to worship gatherings. Through these outreaches, they were able to help one student get involved in a discipleship group so she could continue to grow in her relationship with the Lord. The Coffmans also began their Base Camp program, continuing their campus ministry training in Africa. As they engage in campus ministry, please pray for rest, favor in language acquisition, and a fruitful time on campus.

Dan writes, “With 99.7% of the population still walking in spiritual darkness, this makes Japan the second largest ‘never-reached people group’ in the world.” Please pray that churches are renewed and empowered through the Acts 2 Journey. Pray that these teachings will help churches be a light to a spiritually dark country. Pray for no technological difficulties for those joining on Zoom and for the Holy Spirit to move throughout the teaching sessions.

Join us in prayer for AGWM global workers preparing to reach the secular peoples of Europe. As Jesus commanded us to pray for more workers, Shawn and Deborah Galyen find joy in seeing the Lord continuously answer this prayer. Last June, the Galyens taught the course “Reaching Secular People” to 21 new European workers. Not only are global workers being sent from the United States, but the Galyens also write, “Locally, we continue to see new church plant teams being sent out from Granada. We have released new team leaders to three cities in Spain and are receiving more workers this year who will spend time serving with us and will then launch into the harvest.” Praise the Lord for more workers being prepared and sent to share the gospel message. Please pray that the Lord will continue to prepare and equip them for what He has called them to do.

Through Judah’s diagnosis, the Pasche family was able to share God’s faithfulness with the doctor. The family also shared Judah’s story and what God has done in their lives with several churches, including one of the largest churches in Thailand. As the Lord uses Judah’s story and continues demonstrating His faithfulness, please pray for the challenge of putting together a good care team for Judah in Thailand. Pray also for other missionary families impacted by disabilities. Pray that God will continue directing their steps and providing wisdom for the unique challenges they may face.

AGWM missionaries Weston and Allison Stover are in their last months of itineration while also preparing for the ministry they will be jumping back into in Malawi. As they raise the last of their support, the Stovers prepare to minister in Malawi through sustainable agriculture and campus ministry! The couple shares, “An August arrival would give just enough time to train the farm team and prepare the land for Malawi’s staple crop – maize – which will be planted in November.” Please pray for missionaries who are excited to share about their ministry on itineration, but also longing to be back on the field to continue the work they are called to. Pray for the missionary kids as they transition to and from the mission field. Finally, please pray for financial provision for missionaries on itineration and those finishing their Missionary Training and Renewal this week.

With over 40 children under our care, you can only imagine how much strength, grace, and patience is required of our team and staff at the Hope Center! Please pray for our staff that God would supply all of their needs and shine through them as Christ-like examples for our children.”

Pray for families, Christian workers, and churches across China, especially during Spring Festival. This holiday is a special time when people travel to spend extended time together. With the latest round of loosening of pandemic-related travel restrictions, more people are traveling for this year’s holidays than in the last several years. Over 2 billion trips are expected to take place during this time. Please pray for health and safety as COVID continues to be an issue in rural and vulnerable populations. Please join with the church in Northern Asia to pray that Christ will be shared across family tables throughout this holiday.

Join us in prayer for Christian women living in Chad, that God would use them to minister to the hearts of Muslim women. Due to conflict, thousands of Muslim women have fled to escape fighting in the Central African Republic—a landlocked country of Central Africa—finding refuge in neighboring areas. “A stream of 40,000 Muslims have fled to Chad,” shares Say Hello, a ministry directed by AGWM missionary Lynda Hausfeld aimed at reaching Muslim women. “Pray that these women will be intentional in reaching out and ministering to the Muslim women living as refugees and that Muslim women will be led to Christ.”

Join us in prayer for ethnic minority groups throughout the western regions of Northern Asia. “Most of these groups are difficult to access and bound by intense spiritual darkness,” says AGWM’s Northern Asia region. Pray that spirit-empowered workers from all nations will be called to live among these peoples and share a gospel witness. Also pray that they are no longer bound by spiritual darkness but instead filled with the light and life found in Christ Jesus.

Please pray for families across the Arab world to have an openness to the gospel message and unity in Christ. “Though the Arab World is traditionally hostile towards Christianity, we are seeing breakthroughs,” Eurasia Community shares. “Often times one family member receives Jesus but follows Him secretly out of fear of persecution.” Pray for the Holy Spirit to soften the hearts of unbelieving spouses and family members. May Arab families find truth in the light of God’s Word as they build their foundation on Him.

Please pray for the church planting teams throughout Nepal as each believer carries both a willingness to serve and obedience to God’s call. One church planting team is made up of a Romanian and Bolivian family, both working together to reach Tibetan Buddhists. Join us in prayer that God’s hand of protection would continue to be over this team as they participate in furthering God’s mission. May God continue to unify those of different backgrounds to advance His gospel throughout the unreached people groups of southern Asia.

Pray with us for the Holy Spirit to continue using local churches to minister and testify to their communities. An example of this occurred in a poor village of southwest China, where a pastor believed God for a miracle after finding the leaves of their mulberry trees infested with caterpillars. Silkworm cocoons served as a vital supplemental income for village residents, but the caterpillars had begun eating away at the mulberry leaves—the silkworms’ food. The situation looked hopeless until the people gathered in their church building and cried out to God. Suddenly, crows descended and ate away at the caterpillars until they were all gone. Residents then returned to the church to thank and praise the Lord, an AGWM team member reports. May God continue to move mightily through His people and their prayers!

Pray God will continue to use Christians who have decided to stay in Syria to serve as witnesses for Christ. Many face persecution amid the dangerous and harsh conditions that come with religious intolerance. Join us in prayer that the Holy Spirit will enable them to be steadfast, immovable, and always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that in Him their labor is not in vain (1 Corinthians 15:58).

Pray for new believers among indigenous communities as they navigate the cultural challenges that come with accepting Jesus. Many face great punishment for forsaking their tribes’ indigenous beliefs in favor of faith in Jesus Christ. Please pray that God will be especially close to them as they suffer imprisonment, abuse and other forms of persecution.

Please ask the Lord to continue providing Bible schools with access to educational resources through the distribution of print-on-demand systems. “Print-on-demand systems offer a more sustainable option for delivering curriculum and other materials to schools in Africa,” writes Africa’s Hope (an AGWM training ministry equipping African churches with Spirit-empowered, biblically trained leaders). “Once a school can operate a POD system, it can serve as a distribution center for other schools, programs and churches in their country and surrounding countries.” May Jesus multiply the knowledge of His Word and encourage every African seeking to study and grow.
