November Prayer Points

Please join us in prayer for…

SCHOLARS

• Pray for those scholars who are living and studying in the midst of ongoing war, conflict, or significant health crises. Ask the Lord to protect them, strengthen them, and give them peace and wisdom as they continue their studies in the midst of difficult and uncertain circumstances.

•A graduate from Nigeria will be undertaking a writing sabbatical in the UK through the middle of December. While there, he will be working on several articles and book projects. Pray for safe travel and clarity for research and writing.

LITERATURE

• November marks the second anniversary of the birth and establishment of Onesimas Theological Publishing in Addis Ababa in Ethiopia. Langham has been assisting a very talented and visionary group of Ethiopian believers to establish their own publishing ministry. Give thanks for tremendous progress, above and beyond expectations, for 20 high-quality theological commentaries and titles already produced and selling out fast. Pray for founder Tekalign Duguma as he learns lots of new skills and balances many duties. Pray for editors Hiab and Naji, and for their numerous Ethiopian authors that, through them, God would bless his Church across Ethiopia. Pray for an impactful launch of a new raft of titles at their conference in November.

•Please pray for the publishing team as they attend Evangelical Theological Society Annual meeting 17th-19th November and Society of Biblical Literature Annual meeting 21st- 24th November, in Denver, USA.

PREACHING

• This month sees the annual gathering of our Langham Preaching Global Leadership Team in Colombo, Sri Lanka. Please pray for a time when relationships are deepened and our working together increases.

• In Liberia, the African Preaching Movement Coordinators and Ushirika Coordinators will meet together for a Consultation. Key representatives will attend for a time of fellowship, learning and strategic planning for the continent. Pray for safety in travel, for successful visa applications where necessary and for those who will facilitate and lead sessions.
