Pray for mentoring clinics – two were recently held in Tajikistan (November) and Siberia (December). Pray that those who participated will invest in others.

Many intercessors from around the Mediterranean will gather 1-3 February in Gibraltar.

Praise God for the good reports of the ministries that the Transit Challenge Team held in France. Pray that they would be an encouragement to local churches – that they will continue to reach out to their communities and plant new churches among them. Praise the Lord! I will give thanks to the Lord with my whole heart, in the company of the upright, in the congregation. Psalms 111:1

When workers are deported, it has a big impact on the community, on businesses and platforms, and ongoing ministry. Please pray for these folks, in general, that when deportations happen, the Lord will bring His peace and purposes, and provide wisdom for those that remain. I am sending you out like sheep among wolves. Therefore be as shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. Matt 10:16

Sometimes it is the simplest things, such as firewood, that can warm a person’s heart. Pray for those in Bosnia who are seeking to pass out firewood to the poor to keep them warm. For our God is a consuming fire. Hebrews 12:29
