Facing difficulties

Pray for Martha, ReachGlobal personnel in Costa Rica, who is undergoing treatment for cancer and is experiencing problems with blood clots around her neck. The blood thinner medications are causing further complications so pray that would clear up, and for the side effects on her body from the next chemo treatments on September 8th, 20th and 21st, to be lessened. Pray that as Martha experiences these discouraging times during her treatment that her faith and trust in Christ would give her strength and peace.

MK 's tragic accident

Pray for Cameron, son of Carl and Kathy, ReachGlobal personnel in Asia. Cameron had a serious accident while riding on a scooter and hit a curb. The accident caused a deep gash in his thigh that cut into the muscle. Carl and Cameron were visiting a work in a creative access area so Carl made the decision to have the surgery on Cameron’s leg done in the town where the accident happened. One complication is that the doctor wants to keep Cameron in the hospital for a week. Carl would like to get home in a few days. Please be in prayer for Cameron that he will receive the best medical care so his leg heals without complications. The biggest concern is infection so Cameron is on antibiotics. Pray that God would give comfort and peace to the family during this difficult time.

Hosting Cross-cultural Outreach

Pray for Steve and Joan, ReachGlobal U.S.-based staff in Indiana, serving as hospitality hosts for the International English Class, which is entering its sixth year on September 7. Pray for Steve and Joan as their role as host will give them more time to interact with newcomers, especially those in the Turkish community. They are thankful for the leadership God has raised up and how this ministry is motivating so many in their church for cross-cultural outreach.

Partnership Building

Pray for Tom and Dora, ReachGlobal personnel in the Czech Republic, currently on home assignment. One of their main focuses during their time in the U.S. is to find partners in ministry who would pray, give, or serve in order to expand the kingdom of God among the Roma in the Czech Republic. Please pray that the Lord would lead in this as Tom and Dora schedule church and individual visits and Czech Desserts (an informal time in a person’s home to have dessert and share the ministry). 

Divine appointments during Ramadan

Pray for divine appointments for Dave and Patsy, ReachGlobal personnel in Cameroon, to share God’s truth with their neighbors who are preoccupied with Ramadan. Pray for those who are truly seeking God, that He would reveal Himself to them in extraordinary ways.

Sharing ministry in Venezuela

Pray for Ernest and Effie, ReachGlobal personnel in Venezuela, as they travel to their supporting churches in California and Nevada this month to share about their ministry. Pray for safe travels and that the congregations would be encouraged to hear how their prayer and support is bearing fruit. Praise God for Latinos who have been trained and are ready to move ahead in missions. Pray for Lyd, from Mexico, who needs her visa in order to begin ministry with a ReachGlobal team in France in October. Pray that the ongoing seeds sown will germinate and bear full fruit.

Recovering from bike accident

Pray for Bill, ReachGlobal staff in China, who severely injured his elbow in a bicycle accident. The doctors performed surgery immediately inserting two screws and some wire to put the elbow back together. Pray for Bill as he will need to make several visits to the hospital for changing bandages, taking out staples, and then finally removing the screws after six to twelve months. Pray for rapid healing and that he will be diligent with the exercises to make sure his arm function returns like it should.
