- Supported Worker: E & J in North Africa
- Details: E & J are thankful for our prayers for their travel back to North Africa. They made it ‘safe and sound,’ as did all their luggage, and are adjusting to a new time zone and surroundings. As they reconnect with friends and neighbors, please pray that God would give them favor. Pray that those around them would welcome relationships with them and that they would seriously consider the truth as they talk with them. Papua New Guinea (Pacific). Population: 10,515,788 Believers: 25.7%. Translation and literacy programs and appropriate Christian literature are fundamental for acculturating the gospel. PNG has over 800 languages, and the majority still do not have a single verse of Scripture. About 210 languages have a NT, but only 12 or so have a complete Bible. Translation teams are needed for 160 languages and possibly for a further 250. Pray for translators, for means of making the arduous task faster and more accurate, and for indigenous translators/language assistants. From Operation World DVD-ROM 2010 and www.operationworld.org
