Deaf Peoples

Limited access to technology makes it difficult for Deaf Angolans to view Bible stories that are typically shared through sign language videos. Please pray for God's wisdom and provision, asking that He will guide the development of a plan for Scripture to be accessible to the Deaf in Angola without reliance on video technology so that His Word may be clearly shared and understood.

Students & Young Professionals, Seoul, South Korea
In South Korea, many young people focus on improving their physical appearance. Roughly 20% of Korean young adults turn to plastic surgery to change their appearance. South Korea has the highest rate of plastic surgery use in the world, with most clinics located in the Seoul neighborhood of Gangnam. Others use diet pills to become thinner and more “beautiful.” Recent studies show that about 60% of diet pill users in South Korea are not even overweight. This focus on looks comes from a desire to fit in with social norms and beauty standards. It also comes from a desire to experience love and acceptance. Please pray for the young people of Seoul to turn away from the idol of beauty. Please pray for young local believers to stay focused on Christ as they live and work in such deep social pressure. Please pray for missionaries to show empathy as they share the unconditional love of Jesus.

Tea River People of South Asia
Tea River Muslims will celebrate Eid al-Adha around May 26 this year. This Festival of Sacrifice commemorates the time when the Prophet Abraham was willing to sacrifice his son to Allah. Muslim families sacrifice goats, sheep, or cows, giving one-third of the meat to the poor, one-third to family members or friends, and keeping one-third for themselves. Pray that believers will engage in conversations with Muslim neighbors and friends around the sacrifice, using it as a bridge to share the gospel. Pray for Tea River Muslims to hear about Jesus’ once-for-all sacrifice that takes away shame and sin and allows people to be reconciled to God in Christ. Pray that many Tea River People will hear the good news, believe, and become disciples of Jesus.

Chinese in the United Kingdom

Londoners love their Spring Bank Holiday, this year on May 25, when they hope to catch a glimpse of the sun and relax over the long weekend. Brothers and sisters from London Chinese Baptist will gather for their annual retreat, seeking a time of spiritual nourishment and renewal. Pray that all who attend will be blessed with a word from the Lord, an assurance of His peace and presence in their lives and come away strengthened in faith.

Theological Education in Cape Town, South Africa
A missionary and a professor at Cape Town Baptist Seminary, Jonathan Baker shared recently about a student who, when he began taking classes at the seminary, learned that the health and wealth theology/prosperity gospel was not of the truth! Because this student has a great influence through social media, he went back through his posted sermons and took them offline if they did not line up with the truth. Praise God that His Holy Spirit has the power to reveal what is not pure and holy! Would you pray for this student and others like him? This misleading belief is prevalent in many places in Africa as well as in the United States. In seminary classes, in discipleship, in time with the Word and with other believers, please pray that God will continue to strip away what is extra and man-made and illuminate only what He purposes through His Holy Word. Pray that God will have much influence in and through the lives of these students as they take what they have learned to those in faraway places as well as to those across the street.

Window City of North Africa
Farhat, who lives in Window City, has turned away from Islam and has long been uninterested in conversations related to faith and religion. However, one day recently, Farhat and a friend of his were in a conversation with a follower of Jesus, and Farhat began to express an interest in seeking the truth. The follower of Jesus shared the gospel with him, and since their initial meeting, they have started reading the Word of God together. Farhat is open and interested. Pray that he will see the door that is open to him and believe in Christ.

Pray for all the staff members who work in this critical care area, asking that they will be able to make quick decisions, ensuring excellent patient care.

Deaf Peoples

"Pray for unity within one of our Deaf Bible study groups that meets weekly and is currently experiencing conflict. Ask the Lord to bring healing, humility, and understanding, and to remind each person that our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces (Ephesians 6:12). Pray that peace, love, and Christ-centered unity will be restored."

Germany

Baptist representatives write: "A German partner met with the top leaders of the liberal German Lutheran church in April about the meaning of the gospel, sin, the resurrection, and the mission of the church. Give thanks to God for the opportunity for this German partner to bring the gospel to the heart of German liberalism!"

Northern African and Middle Eastern Peoples
“He did not die,” Muslim theology states. Muslims are taught that Jesus was switched with someone else. During the Easter season, Christians had the opportunity to share with their friends why the truth that Jesus died is so foundational to their faith. Thank God for these discussions! It was a new concept for some Muslims on the Arabian Peninsula and elsewhere in the Middle East. Pray for people who are thinking about this information. Ask that they will begin to understand the amazing concept of God coming to earth to die and breaking the power of sin to give us eternal life. Pray for many to come to faith in Christ in the coming months. Pray John 3:16 (ESV) over these dear people: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”

Turks of Istanbul, Turkey
(is-tan-BULL) – During the Islamic month of Ramadan, Mahmoud invited some Christians into his home to break the fast with him. Over the past few years, they had shared the gospel with him several times, but he had never shown much interest. However, this evening, something changed. Instead of shifting the conversation away, Mahmoud spent nearly three hours asking sincere questions about their faith. For the first time in his life, he encountered a challenge that invited him to think beyond the boundaries of what he had always believed. Both Mahmoud and his wife, Rahma, are conservative Muslims, and over the past month, they shared that this is the first time they have ever heard the gospel clearly explained. Mahmoud, in particular, has been deeply curious about how God can be both fully loving and fully just while offering forgiveness to sinners. Please pray for this precious family as they reflect on the message of the gospel and consider whether it is truly the Word of God. Pray that their hearts will remain open and that God will guide them into truth.
