Anniversary needs

Today we want to pass along a prayer request from a pastor in the Muslim areas of Mindanao.

This week will mark the 10th anniversary of this outreach to the hostile Muslim areas. Pastor Bhoy there has prayed for $300 for the anniversary service that will be this Sunday (Saturday if you are in the Western Hemisphere).

During my trip to the Philippines in May of 2011, I spoke at a couple of these anniversary services. They are all-day affairs, and they are opportunities for outreach. Many unsaved people are invited and subsequently attend these anniversary services. But there is a significant cost involved, with the food preparation, the gifts to guest speakers, etc.

So, let's join Pastor Bhoy in praying for this need. The time is short.

Also, please pray with us for the protection of the service. Pastor Bhoy's family was attacked last month while evangelizing, and the hostile Muslims of the area might look upon this service as an opportunity to cause more damage. So please pray for the protection of this service, as well as the provision of funds. God bless!
