Pray for missionaries who lead congregations in remote places. A widow in a poor and isolated community has led a church in her home for the last 25 years. “People are struggling day in and day out, but it opens more opportunities for me to minister the gospel to them,” she said. Her village chief, while not a Christian, permits her to share her faith with others in the village, and she thanks God for the freedom she has to do so. “I praise God for all that He has done in my life,” she said. Donations of $25 or $50 support local missionaries as they shepherd congregations in their communities.

“Preach the word of God. Be prepared, whether the time is favorable or not. Patiently correct, rebuke, and encourage your people with good teaching.” (2 Timothy 4:2)
