One week left to share something extra with our missionaries this Christmas via the Christmas Gift Fund.

Prayer Matters is published every Tuesday.

Herman & Belinda Lamprecht, (South Africa, DPG Day 2)

Recently we had 2 unsettling incidents, with a break -in to Herman’s office and some equipment stolen and an assault on a passer-by right in front of the house, whom Herman was able to help.  If nothing else, it is a good reminder to us to be a bit more intentional about praying for God to keep our property, and the people in it, safe from harm. Please would you pray with us on that front, too. I've probably got about 6 weeks to go in my pregnancy and we are all very excited to meet him or her soon. Please pray for a safe delivery.

Ross & Belinda Cruickshank, (Australia, DPG Day 11)

Praise the latest version of Keyman version 18.0 was released last week. Pray the changes will be helpful to the users. We have also had some retired software developers join our team for 2 days a week. Pray as we adjust to the new team structure.

Jason & Kim Job, (Australia, DPG Day 12)

The people of Arnhem Land are again heavy on our hearts, where heavy rain has cut off many indigenous communities. This means that for many, MAF has been a lifeline to bring in food, medical supplies and other essentials. At times like this the maintenance of our MAF planes becomes even more critical, which is why Jason is heading to Arnhem Land next week to help keep these aircraft flying safely. He'll be in Nhulunbuy for two weeks, working alongside the Arnhem Land engineering team.

Andrew & Catherine Walkington, (QLD, DPG Day 17)

Please pray for the weekly outreaches on campus and in the CBD. The campus is a very fertile harvest field, but there are only a couple of weeks left before students have exams. Pray for a recent contact, Mustaq, a Muslim who was very interested in hearing about Jesus, took a Gospel of John and hopes to keep in touch.  Please pray for Andrew’s leadership role within OAC (National Operations Coordinator). There are many good projects that will allow OAC to grow in capacity, but they can easily dominate his time. Please pray that he would use wisdom in how he allocates his time. Please pray for the salvation and spiritual growth of Rachael (15), Simeon (13), Abigail (12), & Josiah (9).

Eva Kennedy, (Spain, DPG Day 20)

Please pray for a team house. We are looking for a 4 bedroom place to host our short termers each summer. I will live there and look after the flat and our guests. Pray for our new WEC Spain leaders Wayne and Sue as they settle in to the ministry.

Naomi, (Restricted Access, DPG Day 29)

We finally received some encouraging news about our residency permit applications! It seems that we are finally in the final stage, now having passed through the internal security office, tax and labour departments, and many other offices. Please pray for favour in this final stage and that the residency permits are issued soon (we were told that it could happen within a week!). Our brothers in prison received their verdicts: they were sentenced to between 3 and 15 years in prison. We are still not sure of all the details or what an appeal might look like. Continue to uphold them in prayer and pray for their families.

Robert & Denise, (Restricted Access, DPG Day 30)

We’re about to return to N4, with our departure scheduled for May 28th Please pray that we’ll adjust smoothly, quickly settle into our routines, and have a renewed and enlarged vision for the work ahead. We’re also asking God to place spiritually hungry people in our path during this next term, and we’d love your prayers for that as well. Please be praying as the visa process for N4 has recently changed. We can no longer receive a visa on arrival. Applications must now be submitted at least two weeks before arrival. From what we’re hearing from others on the ground, many have experienced delays and needed to re-schedule flights. Please pray for smooth processing and timely approval of our visas.
