Supported Worker: Andrew & Angie James
Country: Uruguay
Details: The door has opened for a new Equipping Servants International (ESI) group to begin on March 17 with pastors from various parts of Uruguay. Praise the Lord for this answer to prayer! Pray that the group will get off to a good start, that the pastors will become more firmly grounded in the gospel, and that the fellowship among them will build God-glorifying relationships. Nigeria (Africa). Population: 229,152,217 Believers: 30.8%. Africa and Nigeria’s greatest spiritual challenge is discipleship, not Islam, not corruption, and not even the need for missions. The church grew so fast that many new believers have little chance to be discipled. Much division and false teaching enters churches. Prosperity teaching distorts the gospel. A form of Christianity mixed with African tribal religious practices is common. Many Christians seem to live by other values than what the Bible clearly teaches. Pray that humility, simplicity, and holiness might become the motto of the Nigerian church. From Operation World DVD-ROM 2010 and www.operationworld.org
