Supported Worker: E & J in North Africa
Details: E and J and their teammates have been building a business to give them long term access and legitimacy in the “C” region of the country. Pray for favor from the local government. Pray that their first shipment of products from that region that are on a boat bound for the USA will prove successful. This past week one of the elders at the local fellowship was installed as the lead shepherd. Praise God for the sweet celebrations and ask that our brothers and sisters would have a deeper appreciation for the bride of Christ. Pray for God’s continued blessing on their marriage and family as they serve him in North Africa where they face unique challenges. Samoa (Pacific). Population: 228,966 Believers: 18.0%. Samoans have been Christian for over a century, and every village has at least one church. But the traditional class structure and pre-Christian cultural standards were not necessarily transformed by the gospel. Pride and politics influence church life too much, and the financial demands on a poorer population are heavy. San Marino (Europe). Population: 33,614 Believers: <0.1%. The Sammarinese are Catholic by tradition and culture, but few practice their faith. San Marino calls itself the “Ancient Land of Liberty,” and people have freedom to worship. But evangelism hardly exists. Past outreach by evangelicals resulted in jail or expulsion from the country, so no churches or ministries currently evangelize here. Pray for a new season of true spiritual liberty. From Operation World DVD-ROM 2010 and www.operationworld.org
