SUMMARY:Part 1 - Together
DESCRIPTION:“Together\, we are his house\, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets. And the cornerstone is Christ Jesus himself. We are carefully joined together in him\, becoming a holy temple for the Lord.” (Ephesians 2:20-21) \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\nAs our annual district conference approaches\, pray for our newest church\, All the Nations EFC in Wembley\, Alberta. They will host our conference as we welcome them into full membership. This also means that we will no longer have any active church plants. Pray that God will guide and direct the Alberta Parkland District towards the ways in which He desires for us to reach out next. Our hope and prayer is that God will work through the district to plant many more churches. \n\nTim Stewart – PD Superintendent\nThank you for your prayers for the Stewarts – they have enjoyed visiting different churches together\, and the kids have settled in well to their new community. We are thankful for some very positive and uplifting Accreditation Councils\, where people’s calling and character for ministry were affirmed. Please pray for our conference this month in Osler\, SK – on the theme of “Raising up Leaders for the Harvest!” \n\nDan Carlaw – CPD Superintendent\nOur annual CPD Conference will be hosted at Prince George EFC\, October 1–4. Please pray for a meaningful and encouraging time together\, for the conference planning committee\, and for district pastors: Lawrence Jensen\, Paul Ford\, and Pat Stich\, as they bring messages. Pray for Charisa Reimer and Neil Bassingthwaighte as they lead breakout sessions on hospitality. Above all\, pray that God would be glorified in our time together. \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

SUMMARY:Part 4 - Together
DESCRIPTION:“Together\, we are his house\, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets. And the cornerstone is Christ Jesus himself. We are carefully joined together in him\, becoming a holy temple for the Lord.” (Ephesians 2:20-21) \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\nAs Sammy prepares to leave for Uganda in October to serve in mission work\, please pray for safety and good health; pray that many people will hear God’s Word\, open their hearts\, and receive salvation. Pray for faithful donors to help support the ministry. Pray that refugee families find hope; pray that church leaders accept the true doctrine of the Bible and focus on discipleship. Also\, pray that Muslim communities will encounter Christ and respond to the Gospel. \n\nScott & Karen Wind Vandenberg – Mexico\nPlease pray for Buen Samaritano as we face a significant financial need. Our available funds have been depleted\, and at this point we do not have enough to send the full amount needed to pay our faithful staff who care for the residents each day. We are deeply grateful for their commitment. Please pray for God’s provision\, trusting with us that He knows the need and will provide in His way and timing. \n\nStephen & Jane Wheeler – Montréal\nPray for alertness to new outreach opportunities in Nashville while we continue existing Canadian ministries online and by telephone. Pray for what seems like an endless string of administrative tasks related to our move from Montreal to Nashville. \n\nEFCP: Evangelical Free Church of the Philippines\nContinue to pray for President Samuel Aberia as he guides and coordinates the work of the 170 Free Churches in seven different regions. Pray for more workers to lead the several new church plants. \n\nJoy – Creative Access Country\nPraise the Lord for the fundraising for the school supplies for Egypt; I reached my goal. Please pray for the Christmas fundraising that I will start in October as the need is big. And please keep praying for the poor people in Egypt. \n\nLina and David Cheng – Japan\nPlease pray the Lord would provide for our Ministry Expense Fund in Japan. Pray the Lord brings more new moms and children to join the two events (for kids and moms) in October. May the Lord bless the three events and activities to reach out to the Chinese students and young people in Tokyo\, Japan. \n\nRobert & Leslee Oudman – Nicaragua\nAgriculture is a major force in the local economy. Pray with us for the growing season. Pray for sufficient rains and a bountiful harvest and that the Lord of the harvest be praised! Pray for our interactions with the Nicaraguan authorities – that we honour God in all we do and that people would see God through each one of our actions. \n\nJulsain Blanc – Haiti\nPray for an increase in members in the Montreal Church and wisdom and revelation to preach God’s word. And pray for mission field work in Haiti\, where we need financial support to feed the orphans every month\, and to complete the project of complex building construction. The purpose of the building is to: train new pastors and local pastors\, a library center for students\, for distributing food\, water\, and clothing\, a conference center\, and a guesthouse for missionaries. We have already completed 30% of the construction. This project is located in Cap-Haïtien\, on the north side of Haiti. Now\, we are in the process to raise funds to complete this project for Haitian churches. Pray for God to open the hearts of friends and churches to give to this cause. \n\nDan Byrne – Ottawa Evangelism Partnership\nPlease pray for Noemi and Keiden as they return to school\, and for Aiko as she considers her next steps after graduating from Concordia. Connecting Streams is seeking a new National Director\, and Dan is helping navigate interim leadership. Please pray also for expanding refugee and inner-city ministry opportunities with churches\, and for Dan as he speaks at an EFCC missions festival in Thunder Bay at the end of October. \n\nChildren’s Shelter of Cebu\nPray for protection from wildfire smoke dritiing in from Borneo\, that as it spreads over Cebu our children will be protected. For some time the mayor of Cebu had to close all the schools. The shelter also had to be shut down and children were required to wear masks. Pray that the children and staff will suffer no side effects from the smoke. \n\nArvid Olson – EFCC ServeBeyond Ambassador to the Philippines\nThanks to all of you who prayed for my recovery from the 7 weeks spent in the hospital because of a fractured pelvis. Recovery is a long road and sometimes painful process so your prayers are much appreciated. Pray for my wife Ruth also as this can be a very difficult time for her as well. \n\nEvangelical Theological College of the Philippines\nContinue to pray for the President and his team\, as they seek to develop new programs that will prepare students for ministry in the Free Church in the Philippines. Pray that the original ETCP motto will continue to give direction to future developments. The vision to see. Faith to believe. Courage to do.
