Toronto

Pray that believers who have any training in evangelism to Muslims (e.g., Al Massira, Bridges, Engaging the Nations booklet etc) will be burdened to reach out to GTA’s Bangladeshi Muslims.

Pray for Bangladeshi Muslims to have visions and dreams of Jesus that lead to salvation.

Praise God with us for the work of The Jesus Network and one of its missionaries, Obed, who has been working tirelessly the past few years to help complete the refugee/immigration processes to get multiple Afghan families into the GTA and out of Afghanistan. Pray that this work will continue and flourish, that Afghans come to a place that provides them safety, refuge, and exposure to the good news of Jesus and Jesus Himself in a caring, nurturing environment among followers of Jesus.

Pray the Lord will raise up laborers among Greater Toronto Area (GTA) Afghans to evangelize, disciple believers, & start churches.

Pray that current missional workers among GTA Afghans become connected to existing Afghan believers.

Pray for Christians to show Afghans the power of Christ’s love, & empower GTA Christians to be instruments of peace toward Afghans.

Pray for GTA evangelical involvement among Afghans: it will likely require developing a discreet yet strategically intentional presence among Afghans via social media, as they are very active and connected online, especially back to Afghanistan via the Internet.

There are few known open Afghan followers of Jesus in GTA from a Muslim, Sikh, or Hindu background, and there are only a few known churches (possibly four) in GTA with Afghans as the primary members/attendees. There are a few believers, churches, & at least three mission organizations focusing attention & outreach efforts on Afghans in GTA. Networking and collaborating with such existing believers, churches, & organizations (and emerging ones) will be wise.

Pray for more GTA believers to live among GTA’s Afghans in their own buildings/communities (the Move-In approach).

Pray for more GTA believers to work among Afghans (perhaps in labor jobs).
