SUMMARY:Part 1 - In Light of Jesus
DESCRIPTION:“He (Christ) existed before anything else\, and he holds all creation together….For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ\, and through him God reconciled everything to himself. He made peace with everything in heaven and earth by means of Christ’s blood on the cross. This includes you….” (Colossians 1:17\, 19-21) \n\nWe are now doing video intros for the Prayer Guide! To watch this month’s Prayer intro\, click here. \nLet us pray for all our EFCC Districts and CAF Chaplains:\nMarvin Penner – APD Superintendent \nWe are excited to welcome our church plant\, All The Nations EFC of Wembley\, into the Alberta Parkland District. Pray for the Wembley church and Pastor Dwight Munn as they go through the steps of electing a church board and take on the full responsibilities of church life and ministry. Thank God for establishing his church in Wembley and ask that they continue to reach out in their community. This leaves the APD without an active church planting project. Pray with us as we seek to know where God will lead us to the next outreach. \n\nTim Stewart – PD Superintendent \nWe praise God for an encouraging conference in Osler\, SK! We celebrated Tim’s appointment to the DS role\, and also welcomed Calgary Disciples Church as an official member of the district. They are a growing Korean congregation that gathers west of Calgary. Please pray for wisdom as we seek to raise up new leaders and find where God is inviting us to join in His work next. \n\nDan Carlaw – CPD Superintendent \nPraise that Tabare and Yara\, the pastoral couple coming from Mexico to serve at Grace Community Church in Whitehorse\, YT\, have received all their required paperwork! Give thanks with us\, and pray for them as they settle into life in the North and begin building relationships with their new church family. Please also continue to pray for Rob and Debbie Best. Rob is serving as the part‑time interim shepherd at Sage Hills EFC in Ashcroft\, BC\, as the congregation continues its search for a full‑time pastor. \n\nCAF Chaplains\nPray for those serving as chaplains in the Canadian Armed Forces:\n• Peter Han – Esquimalt\, BC\n• Chris Willis – Shilo\, MB\n• Phil Sung – Halifax\, NS

Thank you for your prayers. \n\nNeil Bassingthwaighte – ServeCanada Director & Interim ServeBeyond Director \nPray that Neil would get some rest and relaxation this month as he takes a couple of weeks off after the fall schedule. Continue to pray for our ServeCanada and ServeBeyond missionaries. Several of them are lacking financial support. Pray that the EFCC Engage initiative will empower churches to think\, live\, and grow missionally. \n\nShaun Wick – President \nWe have many churches experiencing growth – pray for wisdom as they deal with facility challenges and that they might shepherd the people well. We have pastors and leaders who are discouraged – pray for encouragement and protection from the enemy. Praise the Lord for the many churches who are experiencing renewal and for others who are sensing the call of God to plant a church. Praise God for a growing sense of unity and family connection among our churches! \n\nDwight Johnson – Stewardship Catalyst \nPray for ongoing visits with donors so that we will be able to finish the year strong financially. Pray for our new fundraising project called Project: LEAD designed to make leadership training more accessible across the EFCC.

SUMMARY:Part 4 - In Light of Jesus
DESCRIPTION:“He (Christ) existed before anything else\, and he holds all creation together….For God in all his fullness was pleased to live in Christ\, and through him God reconciled everything to himself. He made peace with everything in heaven and earth by means of Christ’s blood on the cross. This includes you….” (Colossians 1:17\, 19-21) \n\nWe are now doing video intros for the Prayer Guide! To watch this month’s Prayer intro\, click here. \nLet us pray for all our ServeBeyond/ServeCanada Missionaries:\nSammy Kabyemera – Uganda \nSammy’s mission trip to Uganda was delayed until November due to an Ebola case involving a Congolese individual who travelled through Uganda to Kenya\, where he later died. After the 21-day incubation period and for safety measures\, Sammy hopes to proceed with the trip. Please pray for the situation to improve and for God to make a way for Sammy. If things don’t go well\, Sammy plans to send food to refugees and clothing for discipleship conferences in February 2027\, or even sooner. \n\nStephen & Jane Wheeler – Montréal \nPlease pray for God’s guidance and our participation in the mid-November gathering of “The Journey.” And please pray for our Thursday evening meetings as we continue our walk through the book of Genesis. \n\nJoy – Creative Access Country \nPlease pray for the fundraising we are doing for Christmas; this year the demand is high. Please also be continually praying for those in need in Egypt. \n\nJulsain Blanc – Haiti \nFirst\, we would like to thank God for all the blessings to the church in Montreal and the mission field in Haiti. Glory to God for all He has done for us. Pray for the next mission trip to Haiti in December. The purpose is to graduate 345 students from our Bible College in Haiti and visit our orphanages to share the love and feed the orphans. Pray for people’s hearts to be open to giving funds to the cause. \n\nLina and David – Japan \nPray for the provision of our Ministry Expense Fund. Pray for our visa renewal. Currently\, our visa is 1 year only; we need to renew every year\, and the process is complicated and expensive. We hope to get a longer-term visa of 3 or 5 years. Pray also for our faith and perseverance\, even if we can not see the fruit of the outreach program. \n\nChildren’s Shelter of Cebu – Philippines \nWildfires in Indonesia have blanketed SE Asia in a thick haze and resulted in the closure of schools and government offices. Our own school was forced to close for several days last week by order of the city government due to the smoke. Please pray that the situation with the fires and smoke will improve. One of our older residents\, a girl who is attending college\, contracted dengue and is in the hospital. Please pray for swift recovery and complete healing. \n\nDan Byrne – Ottawa Evangelism Partnership \nPlease pray for Dan as he takes on a new Power to Change leadership role\, helping ministries partner more effectively with local churches. Pray for Connecting Streams as we expand into low-income communities and refugee homes\, and for an upcoming Ottawa summit bringing church and parachurch leaders together. Pray also for Keiden and Aiko as they discern their post-university futures. \n\nScott & Karen Wind Vandenberg – Mexico \nWe praise God for His continued provision for El Buen Samaritano Seniors’ Home in Mexico. Despite ongoing financial challenges\, we have been able to meet our payroll obligations each month. We are also grateful that the home came through Tropical Storm Rachel with only minor damage. Please pray that God would open new avenues of financial support\, as we currently have no reserves to draw upon. \n\nEvangelical Free Church of the Philippines \nPray for President Ariel C. Joules as he gives leadership to over 250 churches in the Philippines. \n\nEvangelical Theological College of the Philippines \nPraise God for the completion of four generations of successful theological education and ministry. Pray that this celebration will be a very successful and meaningful time together. Pray for wisdom and guidance for President Gagutan as he gives leadership to the College.
