Prayer Needs from the Field

from the NMI Prayer Mobilization Line 4/27/04

 

PRAISES:

 

South Pacific

As a result of the generous giving of concerned Nazarenes, five and one-half metric tons of rice is currently being distributed to various island villages in the South Pacific. We are praising the Lord for His provision for those hard hit last month by Cyclone Ivy. Pray that as missionary David Potter (Vanuatu) and others distribute the supplies, God will be glorified and contacts will be made to allow the Church of the Nazarene to return to these villages. Pray also for calm seas and safe travel as the group travels to the six islands affected.

 

PRAY FOR:

 

The family of Sang-du Hong

Sang-du Hong passed away April 27 after a lengthy battle with leukemia. He was 24 years old. Sang-du was the son of Dr. James Hong, head of the Missions Department at Korea Nazarene University (KNU). Please pray for the Hong family during this difficult time. Also, please pray that the many KNU students who knew Sang-du will be challenged to a deeper commitment to Christ.

 

Prayer & Fasting for Outreach in the Philippines

Missionary Doug Flemming requests prayer support for a new ministry opportunity. The Philippines team plans to launch evangelism and discipleship small groups for the listeners of the radio program Perfect Rhythm, which launched several years ago through World Mission Broadcast. The first event will be held at a large mall on April 29, and there is potential to impact thousands of lives.  Please join the Asia-Pacific regional leadership team in praying and fasting for this wonderful opportunity.
