As Randy and Jonathan head to Pakistan, they are hopeful and prayerful. The challenges there are unique because of the diverse culture and political /religious environment. Please keep them in your prayers during the dates below.
June 14 – Randy meets up with Jonathan in Dubai and together they begin their second trip to this country.
June 15-17 Sialkot – This is a graduation of GPHD that we introduced last time. Pray that the pastors and young people will use this discipleship plan to make many strong in their faith. Also pray that a prayer movement might begin, like that of John, “Praying Hyde” who lived and ministered here in the 1800’s and for S., a key leader of a church-planting movement here.
June 18-22 Islamabad – In this new work, Jonathan and Randy have the opportunity to develop 20 young leaders from a region near the Afghanistan border. These young people have recently come to Christ and have opportunities to not only reach others in this area, but also to bring the gospel to Afghans. This is a very difficult and dangerous mission field so let us pray that their faith will be firmly established in Christ and His Word, and that the Holy Spirit will empower & guide them to make disciples among the least reached unreached of northern Pakistan and the country of Afghanistan. Please pray for V., the one who is discipling them.
June 22-23 Travel Home – they will need time to reflect and rest. “And he said to them, “Come away by yourselves to a desolate place and rest a while.” For many were coming and going, and they had no leisure even to eat” (Mark 6:31).
