“The harvest is great, but the workers are few. So pray to the Lord who is in charge of the harvest; ask him to send more workers into his fields.” (Luke 10:2)

Let us pray for all our ServeBeyond/ServeCanada Missionaries:
Olivier Niyongabire – Global Outreach Evangelism School (G.O.E.S)
Praise our Lord Jesus. I am thankful for what God has done in our ministry over the past month. We had our training, and 96 disciple-makers attended and were trained in Gospel evangelism and winning people to Christ. This led them to reach out to new communities, and we are hopeful that many souls will be saved and brought to the kingdom of God through these men and women of God. Secondly, I am happy to share that during our outreach in homes that the Gospel has not reached, 361 people gave their lives to Christ, and among these were 98 Muslim people who denounced their faith and turned to Jesus. This was the peak of our ministry last month. However, we want to ask you to join us as we pray for both DRC and Uganda, where the outbreak of Ebola is growing strong, and this is where our ministry is based. Pray that the spread can stop and also that the sick be saved so that we can resume normal ministry.
Stephen & Jane Wheeler – Montréal
We continue as “Post Retirement Staff” with EFCA ReachGlobal. After 37 years in Canada and needing a warmer climate for health reasons, we’ll be moving south. Beginning with the pandemic, much of our ministry has been online, and those works will continue. Pray for our move to Tennessee, where we’ll be closer to family. Pray also for our continued ministry in Canada and all of North America.
Sammy Kabyemera – Uganda
Please pray for the Democratic Republic of Congo, where many Kyaka refugees come from, as Ebola continues to claim lives and no cure is yet found. Pray for God’s mercy, protection, and healing over the refugee camps. Ask the Lord to strengthen our field team for fruitful discipleship and spiritual growth. Pray also for provision and blessing for Sammy’s mission trip in November this year.
Joy – Creative Access Country
Please pray for the fundraising I am doing for Egypt. It is for needed school supplies that I plan on handing out in August. Please pray for the poor families in Egypt who are suffering a lot.
Helen Blackburn – Bolivia
I praise the Lord for the many years He has given me on the foreign mission field. I first left Canada in 1975. I will miss them all out in Bolivia! My retirement from the EFCC became official at the end of June. Thank you for your many prayers and support.
Jon and Laura Prins – Japan
Pray for our summer English VBS July 18-24. We have a team coming to help in four churches and a camp. Our landlord has announced that he will not be renewing our lease when it expires in 3 years from now. Pray for wisdom. We need a Japanese pastor and a full-time English pastor, but we don’t have the finances for a salary. We have a full-time Mandarin Chinese pastor and a Cantonese worker. Pray for a team that can work together well.
Scott & Karen Wind Vandenberg – Mexico
Please pray for the residents and staff of El Buen Samaritano Seniors Home. Ask God to grant strength, patience, and compassion to caregivers, and comfort, dignity, and peace to each resident. Pray for good health, emotional encouragement, and meaningful connection in daily life. May this home be filled with Christ’s presence, protection, and practical provision for every need.
Canada Day Emphasis
Please pray for Canada! Let’s thank God for the great country that we are privileged to be a part of. Let’s pray for our leaders, in all areas of government (national, provincial, civic, etc) that God would grant them wisdom to lead us well.
