“We are convinced that when we reach the younger generation, we create future leaders and pastors who will one day be key leaders in Central Asia,” reports the leader of New Life Ministries Kazakhstan. “The Teen Camp is a project through which many teenagers can hear about Jesus and dedicate their lives to God from an early age. This year we held three teen camps, in which more than 220 teenagers heard the Gospel, experienced His presence, and many of them gave their lives to Jesus.” Praise God for His work through NLM.

Remember Her (Genesis 16:13) is the theme for this year’s International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church (www.idop.ca), which Intercede helps to organize. Millions of Christians around the world, including many women and girls, are being persecuted for their faith—seeing their family or friends martyred, suffering in prison cells, being forced from their homes and jobs, and sometimes fleeing their countries for their lives. Some of Intercede’s partner ministries face strong persecution from enemies of the Gospel. Please remember our persecuted sisters and brothers in prayer today and throughout the year.

“Purchasing Bibles in local languages is a priority of our ministry,” reports Uzbekistan Christian Fellowship. “Although electronic media has taken root in the lives of Christians, printed copies of the Books of the Holy Scriptures are always in great demand, since people living far from the capital do not have the ability to use smartphones or tablets.” UCF needs to buy more Bibles in the Uzbek, Russian, and Karakalpakian languages. Pray for provision of $5,000 for this.
