Prayer
Oklahoma – Ron Goossen
The ministry is doing very well. However, additional help and finances are always welcome! Please continue to pray for the guardian process with baby Josiah. Ron and Freida hope that they will get full adoption rights next year.
Indiana – Gaylord Kramer
Pray for the Indiana prison ministry. Recently, they celebrated 30 years of service. Prison Coordinator Gaylord Kramer mentioned that a local jail where he ministers will have a new sheriff soon. Pray that the sheriff will be receptive to allowing the chaplain work of Gaylord to continue as is.
Western Kentucky – Pradeep Mathew
Pray for some additional graders to help in the work.
Cuba – the churches using the Emmaus courses in our new work there are experiencing a lot of tensions. Pray for ECS work not to be hindered and even unify them.
Rwanda/UK – Peter Andrews
Peter is facing surgery for cancer soon in the UK and would appreciate our prayer. Also, pray that the ECS work in Rwanda moves ahead.
Egypt – Aymay Fahmy
Praise for ECS reaching into Iraq! “Today our first student from Iraq graduated and received the first series certificate from Emmaus. Pray for Sheikh, from a non-Christian background, but now is in one of the churches in Baghdad. He would love to start an Emmaus School in Baghdad!” Pray!
Switzerland – Markus Wilhelm
“Please pray for good cooperation with Mission Heukelbach in Germany as we produce new German courses together. Pray for the two proofreaders to find any errors.”
