SUMMARY:Part 4 - Eternity Written in Stone
DESCRIPTION:“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead\, and into an inheritance that can never perish\, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you\, who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time” (1 Peter 1:3-5 NIV) \n\nLet us pray for all our ServeBeyond/ServeCanada Missionaries & Agents:\nHelen Blackburn – Bolivia\nPraise the Lord that He is constantly abiding and that our work and support are provided and prayed for. Please continue to pray for Heather and me; for our National workers at the Support Centre; for Lidia\, who is new; and for Cayley\, who will join us in April\, pray for her as she is learning Spanish.

May I be a blessing. \n\nScott & Karen Wind Vandenberg –  Mexico \nPlease pray for the residents and staff of El Buen Samaritano Seniors Home.

Please pray for the fundraising I am doing for Easter in order to reach my goal to help the poor people of Egypt. \n\nSammy Kabyemera – Uganda\nApril is here\, and the time for the upcoming mission trip to Uganda is drawing near. Several ministry programs for April have already been approved and are prayerfully awaiting Sammy’s arrival in Uganda. Pray that the Lord would provide the remaining budget needed for this mission\, as about one quarter of the funds have been raised\, and three quarters are still needed. Pray that God would stir the hearts of donors to give generously\, trusting His promise in Philippians 4:19 and that all be done for His Glory. \n\nArvid Olson – Ambassador to the Philippines\nPlease pray for Arvid as he is in the hospital recovering from a fractured sacrum (pelvis).

The whole earth is filled with his glory!” (Isaiah 6:3) \nAs we contemplate the holiness of God this month\, let’s take some time to praise and thank him for who he is and what he does. As we engage with God’s greatness and glory\, here are a few things we can be grateful for and pray about within the EFCC. \n\nThe Character of God \nWe are in awe of the goodness\, greatness\, faithfulness\, and lovingkindness of our God. Take some time to praise him this month \n\nOur local EFCC Churches \nWe all belong to local bodies that help to grow and nurture us. Let’s thank God for our brothers and sisters who fellowship with us and pray that the glory of God would flow out of our churches and into our world. \n\nEFCC President Shaun Wick \nLet’s take time to thank God for the gift that Shaun is to our Free Church family. Continue to pray for him and his team at the EFCC Home Office. \n\nMissionaries \nThe EFCC has numerous missionaries and projects\, both here in Canada and around the world\, that we can be grateful for\, and uphold in prayer. \n\nPartnerships with Bible Colleges \nPrairie College and Steinbach Bible College are two schools that are working in partnership with the EFCC to help grow our pipeline of leaders for the future. \n\nCAF Chaplains \nWe are deeply grateful that God has called people from within the EFCC to serve him with our Canadian Armed Forces. Continue to uphold Chris Willis (Kingston)\, Peter Han (Esquimalt)\, and Phil Sung (Halifax)\, as they carry out this unique ministry. \nChurch Plants/Planters \nWe are deeply grateful for the gift of new life\, and new churches. \n\nAll The Nations (Wembley) – Dwight Munn\nIranian Church of Newmarket   – Siavosh\nJust Church (Scarborough) – Tim Quek\nSonflower (Burnaby) – David Hong\nWayside Crossing (Osoyoos) – Dan Williams\nMonterey Park (Calgary) – Amir Younas\nCompass Community (Scarborough) – Kelvin Fung\n\n\nDistrict Superintendents \nEvery one of our EFCC Districts is served by godly and gifted men who deeply desire to see our EFCC churches to be healthy and thriving. \n\nDan Carlaw – Canadian Pacific District\nMarvin Penner – Alberta Parkland District\nRichard Gilbert – Central District\nGeorge Budd (Interim) – Prairie District\nTim Stewart (Incoming) – Prairie District\nEvans Hundermark – Lower Pacific District

SUMMARY:Part 2 - Praying the Lord's Prayer
DESCRIPTION:“Jesus said\, This is how you should pray: Father\, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come soon. Give us each day the food we need\, and forgive us our sins\, as we forgive those who sin against us. And don’t let us yield to temptation. ” (Luke 11:2-4 NLT) \n\nWe are now doing video intros for the Prayer Guide! To watch this month’s Prayer intro\, click here. \n\nConfession\nMay your Kingdom come…forgive us our sins. \n“Confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.” (James 5:16) \nThe human condition of alienation from God and his ways has led to all kinds of suffering in our world. Here are some ways that we can both confess our won shortfalls and pray into the Kingdom of God coming on earth as it is in heaven. \n\nReflection \nThis month\, let’s take stock of our lives\, be grateful for forgiveness\, and come to God in confession. \n\nUkraine \nLet’s continue to uphold our brothers and sisters who are suffering in the midst of war. Pray that God’s justice and peace would come to this country. \n\nTearFund Canada \nThe EFCC’s official relief and development partner is TearFund Canada. They are partnering with local churches to bring a holistic gospel presence into a number of developing countries. \n\nIran \nMany of us are deeply troubled by the war that is going on in Iran. Pray for our brothers and sisters who have faced both persecution for their faith and now imminent bloodshed and terror. The fastest growing segment of the church exists in Iran. Pray that this country would experience God’s gift of peace. \n\nFree Church of Lebanon Partnership \nThe EFCC has a partnership with the Free Church in Lebanon which is able to reach into several Islamic countries in ways that most of us in the west are incapable of doing. Pray for the leaders of FEAL (Free Evangelical Association of Lebanon) Joseph Najem and Daniel Saab\, as they spread the Good News of Jesus in these days of turmoil and conflict.

SUMMARY:Part 3 - Praying the Lord's Prayer
DESCRIPTION:“Jesus said\, This is how you should pray: Father\, may your name be kept holy. May your Kingdom come soon. Give us each day the food we need\, and forgive us our sins\, as we forgive those who sin against us. And don’t let us yield to temptation. ” (Luke 11:2-4 NLT) \n\nWe are now doing video intros for the Prayer Guide! To watch this month’s Prayer intro\, click here. \n\nRequests\nGive us each day the food we need. \n“Tell God what you need\, and thank Him for all he has done.” (Philippians 4:6) \n\nEFCC Conference \nAs we prepare to gather together as the Free Church family next month\, let’s spend time aligning our hearts with God’s\, and desiring what he wants for our Free Church association. Pray that this will be a time of refreshment and renewal for all who come. Please also pray for our speaker\, Matthew St. John\, as he leads the main sessions\, and for all our workshop speakers\, as well as the business session. \n\nChurches without Pastors \nAcross the EFCC\, there are many churches without pastors. Let us pray that these churches find pastors that the Lord can use to shepherd their flock for His glory and their good. \n\nEvangelical Free Church of the Philippines \nPray for the preparations being made for the upcoming National Annual Conference. This will be held on May 12-15\, 2026 in Tacloban City\, Leyte. We have more delegates registered than ever before. Pray for the 1 million pesos that the leaders need to raise to cover the subsidy for the delegates who are in need of help. Pray for the powerful demonstration of God’s presence through the messages and speakers. Pray God will use Rev. Kevin Kompelien\, the main speaker\, and other servants of God who will deliver God’s message. Pray for the completion of Vision 200 by 2026. This is to plant 200 churches in four years. We need to have 50 more to complete the vision. The stats are not as important as the community of believers worshipping our God and making disciples behind the numbers. Pray God will raise godly leaders who will set good examples for EFCP constituents. \n\nMental Health Awareness \nPray for the health of those in the EFCC family. Pray that God would grow them spiritually. Pray too for the mental health of our EFCC family members. We live in a world that can eat away at our mental health quite quickly. Pray for those who are struggling with their physical and mental health.
