Our hearts are heavy as Nepal faces the devastating aftermath of catastrophic flash flooding and mudslides. Hundreds are reported dead, and more than 1,300 people are still missing. Roads, bridges, and highways have been washed away, leaving many communities isolated and without communication.

Last night, Bishop Gopal Lama, National Bishop of Nepal, shared that, by God’s grace, the Church of God of Prophecy families and churches he has been able to contact are safe. However, communication with some of the most severely affected mountain communities has been completely cut off, and the full extent of the devastation is still unknown.

Bishop Gopal has personally ministered in some of these affected areas, where many tribal communities live. He is asking us to join together in showing love and compassion through prayer and, as relief efforts become possible, humanitarian aid for those who have lost so much.

Please join us in praying for Nepal. For those who have lost loved ones, for the more than 1,300 still missing, for isolated communities, and for the safety and strength of those working to bring relief.

Edit: As of Friday, reports indicate there are around 550 deceased people and almost 2,500 missing from both Nepal and Tibet, China.

Please Pray for Colombia

Following the strong earthquake that struck Colombia yesterday, we invite our Global Missions family to join us in prayer for the people of Colombia.

Please pray for those who have been affected, for families experiencing fear and uncertainty, and for protection over our Church of God of Prophecy family—including Bishop Juan Carlos, his family, our pastors, leaders, and congregations throughout Colombia. Pray also for wisdom, strength, and protection for emergency responders and all those working to assist affected communities.

As our brothers and sisters in South America have reminded us, Colombia is not alone. We stand together in prayer. 🙏

"God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." — Psalm 46:1

Statement from the International Offices and Presiding Bishop Tim Coalter

The International Offices of the Church of God of Prophecy, together with Presiding Bishop Tim Coalter, announce with deep sadness the passing of Bishop Adrian L. Varlack, Sr. We extend our heartfelt prayers and sympathy to the Varlack family and to the countless friends, colleagues, and spiritual sons and daughters around the world who were blessed by his remarkable life and ministry.

Bishop Varlack was a powerful, anointed preacher and one of the great statesmen of the Church of God of Prophecy. Larger than life in both presence and influence, he combined extraordinary wisdom with a keen historical mind and genuine kindness. He was beloved throughout our global fellowship and internationally respected not only within the Church of God of Prophecy but also among leaders of other organizations. His counsel was sought across denominational lines because of his integrity and scholarship.

For decades, Bishop Varlack faithfully served the Church in a variety of significant leadership roles: as Church Historian and Consultant to the General Overseer, Center for Biblical Leadership Instructor, Director of World Missions, a member and chairman of numerous Assembly committees, and in various advisory capacities that shaped the life and direction of the global Church. During pivotal moments in the Church's history, he was repeatedly entrusted with responsibilities requiring wisdom, discernment, and the confidence of the International Assembly and the International Presbytery.

As a global family, we celebrate a life marked by faithful service, scholarly excellence, spiritual wisdom, and steadfast devotion to the kingdom of God. While we mourn his passing, we rejoice in the assurance that he has now entered the joyous presence of the Savior whom he served so faithfully.

Please join the International Offices and the Office of the Presiding Bishop in praying for the Varlack family during this season of grief. May they know the abiding comfort and peace of the Holy Spirit, and may the Lord continue to honor the enduring legacy of Bishop Adrian L. Varlack, Sr., whose life has left an indelible mark on the Church of God of Prophecy and on the kingdom of God around the world.

As arrangements for a celebration of his life are made, details will be shared.
