Prayer Commitments

Prayer Requests


  • Joe has varicose veins continue to be an important prayer request. It’s been an ongoing battle, 2 steps forward, 2 steps back. Joe needs divine healing or for God to open doors for medical intervention. Most importantly he needs totally healing!


  • Matthew is starting his first digital media internship as well as doing some freelance work for fellow missionaries. Pray for him as he steps into these new roles and grows in his skills. He is also working toward credentials and figuring at what classes and training he needs to continue that. Pray for open doors for internships for that as well.


  • Each month we appreciate your prayers for the Unreached People Groups here in Guinea. You can visit the link below to see all different groups. https://joshuaproject.net/countries/GV


  • Abigail: Her senior year is winding down and we would appreciate prayer that we celebrate her well in the midst of much happening. We pray that her moments and milestones are honored well because we don’t want this time to get lost in the busyiness of life and ministry. Pray for intentionality and for sweet memories as she makes to huge transition into adulthood. And pray for Abigail’s next steps, God has some huge things in the works that we can’t wait to share with you soon!!!


  • Teams and Travel: We head to the interior with a team from Missouri the 1 week of May and then we have 3 weeks before our next team from Ohio arrives. 2 weeks after that we head to Springfield, MO for Abigail’s graduation and after that is a stop in Ohio to celebrate her with friends and family at her graduation party then back to Guinea and then …. there’s more, there is always more but we will save that for a future prayer request!

Projects


Children's Tabs

Give Now

We need funds to build 30+ Children’s Church structures in strategic locations throughout Guinea. These structures are used for Sunday school classrooms. They can also used to create kid’s camps and hold VBS services. They will also be used for Christian schools. This is an effective strategy to reach non-Christian children as local schools do not always provide an adequate education so many families are willing to send their children to our Christian schools.
