Hotline Prayer Requests

February 1, 2012

Panama: This Sunday, February 5, is the inaugural service for the mission work in Penonomé. Pray for Osvaldo Ortega and Steve and Lori Torrison as they meet and invite residents to the service. Ask God to move in a mighty way in Penonomé.

Brazil: Classes at the Bible institute in Campinas resume on February 13. Don Robirds, former missionary to Brazil and retired director of communications for the Mission, will be teaching the classes while Kenneth Eagleton is on stateside assignment. Ask God to give Mr. Robirds clarity of thought and expression, extraordinary language skills, good rapport with the students, sound health, and stamina.

France: Robert and Judy Bryan departed on January 29 for Cameroon to co-direct the first Leadership Matters Course in French. Pray all the logistical details will fall into place. Ask God to help trainers communicate clearly. Pray participants will understand and apply the principles for effective leadership. Ask God to use the sessions to greatly impact the spread of the gospel in French-speaking countries.

Brazil: Praise God for Geneva Poole’s progress. A visit to her doctor yesterday, January 31, produced a good report. Pray the residual cough she has will cease. Ask God to give Geneva complete healing, strength, and energy.

India: Jeff and Susan Turnbough completed their responsibilities teaching with the Leadership Matters Course in India on January 30. Pray for them as they spend the next few days traveling, meeting pastors of our churches, and visiting with Carlisle Hanna. Ask God to use them to encourage Brother Carlisle and Indian Christians. Pray for safety as they return to the States on February 6 (arriving in Nashville on February 7).

Stateside: Pray for missionaries, ambassadors, and office staff as they travel on behalf of the Mission. Ask God to give them safety of travel. Pray their services will honor God and the work He is doing around the globe. Pray many people will respond to the challenge to participate in the Great Commission.
