Vancouver

Pray for a Vancouver church that is actively engaging with over 100 Afghan refugees.

Pray that churches would work together to respond to the latest wave of Afghan refugees.

Pray for Christian Afghans who are reaching out to Muslim Afghans. Pray that they will be encouraged and supported by other believers, and that their approaches would be welcomed and fruitful.

Pray for a Vancouver church which is in the process of sponsoring an Afghan believer and his family to come here. He has been stateless in Indonesia for 6 years – and preaching the gospel boldly to Afghan refugees there – seeing many come to Jesus.

Those who have left Islam to follow Jesus experience strong community pressure to return to Islam in order to be accepted in the community. Pray for courage and perseverance for them.

Afghans have not had the opportunity to explore the Bible. Pray that many will choose to join Discovery Bible Studies. Bibles are available in Afghani dialects.

Zechariah 12:10--"And I will pour out on the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem a spirit of grace and supplication. They will look on me, the one they have pierced, and they will mourn for him as one mourns for an only child, and grieve bitterly for him as one grieves for a firstborn son." Pray that the Lord would pour out his Spirit on this community, that they would have a spiritual hunger that only can be satisfied in Jesus
