- Country: Mexico
- Details: Pray that God will continue to give Edgar wisdom in assembling a Mexican Board for the Mission Aviation Fellowship (MAF) work in Mexico. Pray for the three ESI groups that he is leading in Oaxaca and for the Bible study he recently started with two families in the town of San Lucas, which has been closed to the gospel. Pray that God would open doors for their son, Juan, and his wife, Amy, as they prepare to serve in a closed country. Pray that Neri will have wisdom as he facilitates ESI groups in the state of Chiapas. Pray for continued growth of the church plant. Pray for wisdom for Neri’s future treatment for his leukemia (he is dealing with low blood platelets, chemotherapy, and possible surgery). Pray that Neri has wisdom to work within his limitations. Pray for healing and for Karina and the family during this difficult time. Rwanda (Africa). Population: 14,414,910 Believers: 26.9%. Rwanda made great progress since the tragic events of 1994, when Hutu extremists seized power and began the genocide of the Tutsi minority and Hutu moderates. 800,000 perished in 100 days. Over 1 million fled, and more violence followed. Political stability since 2000 allows Rwandans a chance to rebuild. Rwanda’s economy is now one of the fastest growing in Africa. The government banned ethnic identification. People are called Rwandans, and only Rwandans. Give praise for the people’s commitment to reconcile and build peace. Praise God that churches help lead this movement. From Operation World DVD-ROM 2010 and www.operationworld.org
