Young man who needs salvation

Please pray for a young man that has come to church a couple weeks ago. Ive been able to share the Gospel with him 2 times. He says he's not ready just yet to accept Christ into his heart. Prayer God Gives me the ability to continue to witness with him about God!

Increasing Our Witness Around the World

Pray as we look to increase our witness and hand to helping others know Christ around the world. Missions doesn't change from the States to the field — we carry the same great commission.

Pray for wisdom as we learn Portuguese culture and navigate the differences from life in the States.

Visitors and Contacts to Witness To

Pray that God sends visitors and contacts to witness to. We have had some visitors come to church over the last couple of weeks and desire to see more come to know the Lord. We have been able to meet with a family that has been coming. They said they have never heard a Pastor give them Bible on everything they are preaching. Pray for their salvation.

Those Who Watch the Gospel Film

Pray for those who read and watch the plan of salvation through the QR code on our tracts linking to 'The Gospel Film' in Portuguese. We have had several people watch the video — pray that seed is planted for the need of salvation in their hearts and lives.

Pray for our continual adjustment to Portugal. Learning the culture, where everything is, and navigating life in a foreign country with young children.

Language Learning

O português é muito difícil! Pray as we learn to speak Portuguese properly and in a timely manner so we can effectively communicate with the people God has put us with. Pray that Kiska is also able to minister alongside Jeshua and be comfortable in a foreign country. We have been going to class for 4 hours a week so far. We are learning but very slow. Pray that we continue to learn
