Prayer requests for the Colombian Field, 2013
Because “we live by faith, not by sight!”.
1. By the grace of God, people of Colombia need to
understand the gospel as it is presented in the Bible.
2. Colombian churches need to get involved in sending
missionaries and workers abroad.
3. Four churches in Cartagena need to strengthen a church
planting model for future development.
4. The new work of Sabaneta, El Redil del Sur – 20 minutes
from Medellin-, needs a permanent building that could cost 400,000 dollars.
5. Young couples, like Sneyder and Yuliana, are starting
seminary. They need God’s leading for their future ministry and the needed resources
to fulfill their calling.
6. New pastors, like Jairo and Jeniffer/ Phil and Darlina
/ Bill Enrique and Maria/ Gustavo and Patricia/ Jonathan and Zarina, need
protection and encouragement as they start their challenged ministry in areas
where we are planting new churches.
7. Medellin, with its 3.5 million people and around 300
churches, has only one seminary to professionally train pastors and
missionaries. That dear institution is struggling for finances and teachers.
8. Ministries for children and youth are weak in
Colombia, our pastors and missionaries need to learn and find new ways to reach
out to them in a creative and passionate way.
9. Writing books and articles is a ministry that has just
started in our Colombian churches. God has blessed these first publications. We
need encouragement, discipline, more training and resources to see this new
avenue of ministry to bring more glory to our Lord through the salvation of
many.
10. There are several locations in Medellin, as well as in
all the Colombian territory that are still without Christian witness. We need
direction from God to select new areas for which we should start praying and where
we should work. We need to select the right couples and individuals to go those
places to do missionary work and church planting.
I'll say yes, Lord, yes
To your will and to your way
I'll say yes, Lord, yes
I will trust you and obey
When your Spirit speaks to me
With my whole heart I'll agree
And my answer will be yes, Lord, yes
To your will and to your way
I'll say yes, Lord, yes
I will trust you and obey
When your Spirit speaks to me
With my whole heart I'll agree
And my answer will be yes, Lord, yes
