Prayer

“Hear my cry, O God, listen to my prayer” (Psalm 61:1)

Metropolitan Staff

Ephesians 2:8-9 says that it is by the grace of God that we have been saved, through faith in Christ, and not by any of our works. Where do you feel like you are still striving or performing for acceptance? Pray and ask God to reveal these areas to you, and ask for Him to show you how to rest in the finished work of Christ.

Larry Dinkins, OMF International, Thailand

Please pray for the following things: Our Thai Director at CTS needs a year sabbatical to work on a PhD which means I'll be taking the Chair of CTS board when a new interim director starts next year. I need wisdom preparing for my Counseling class and General Epistles course starting in November. Pray for a refreshing week-long spiritual retreat, Oct. 12-19 (no computer/cell phone for 8 days!).

Todd & Pamala Price, Pioneers, Croatia

Our family recently has been able to spend some days off as we visit other family members and enjoy time with friends and having some fun. I (Todd) am currently consultant-checking 1 Corinthians in three Roma languages. We have completed 89% of the New Testament in these three languages. Another consultant will check 2 Corinthians, and I will check Hebrews to complete the NT by the end of this year. Then, we will move on to the Old Testament in these languages. There are also plans to translate the rest of the NT into Bayash, which we started a few years ago and for which we finished Luke. Please be in prayer for these translations and pray for our family as we travel for the next few months to speak at our supporting churches.

Brian Opre, ABWE, Italy

Praising God for His provision in ministry and that because of your generosity, my monthly support is close enough that I've received clearance to return to Italy and I flew out on September 16th. Please be in prayer for my transition to a new city and a new church and pray for wisdom as I disciple people in the church to spiritual maturity.

Jeff & Becky Raymond, ABWE, International

Our video production workshop in Africa is underway now and will continue through the week. Pray for clarity in capturing the stories God has prepared. Pray for development of our on-the-ground leadership team as Jeff coaches them from a distance. Important discussions have taken place as one of our missionary teams decides whether they can host our spring break workshop next March. Pray for God to impact the hearts of the children we teach each Wednesday afternoon throughout the school year, as our first Bible club was on 9/25. Over the past few weeks, we’ve been working through various repairs on our vehicles. Some were effectively completely, but others have us scratching our heads. Please pray for resolution because these matters could have adverse effect on our plans for our trip to the Midwest.
