THANK GOD FOR:

The increase in aid to Pakistan following the floods, following concerns over the low level of international response. Pray that this may be wisely directed, and that it may reach those most in need of it. Pray for God’s church in the country: that it may find ways to show practical love to those affected by the floods.
Rwanda’s recent election which passed off peacefully. Pray for continuing stability in a country where tensions between ethnic groups still linger. Praise God for impressive development gains in that country over recent years – and pray that progress on tackling poverty and reconciling past enemies may continue.

PRAY FOR:

The All Africa Bishops Conference in Uganda this week. Pray for all those attending, as they make key decisions, and discuss issues facing the church across the continent. Pray for God’s guidance, for fellowship, and for spiritual refreshment.

All young people receiving exam results this coming week. May they know God’s love and guidance.
The Greenbelt Festival, for its final preparations, for all you will be participating and for those attending. Pray especially for Tim Mayfield, Sue Mayfield and Jake Lever who are leading an event this year.
