The first time I met Gabi was on a survey to some Mengen villages which had asked us to come teach. He was not welcome in his own village due to his bad choices.
Pray for wisdom, meaningful conversations and safe travel as the team visits Inuit communities. Ask God to provide what is needed to complete the Ministry Opportunity Assessment and raise up workers to serve among Unreached People Groups in the Arctic.
Pray for a good time of fellowship and collaboration. Pray that the church leaders will leave the meeting refreshed and that they will have concrete strategies for how to shepherd the churches. Pray that in addition to their spiritual needs, God will provide for the churches’ physical needs too — especially for rain during this drought.
Pray for the team — including the LeBlancs, Jonathan and Devon Ames, and Jacob and Katie DeValve — as they prepare to teach, that God would give them peace, clarity and wisdom. The team is previewing the Bible lessons with three Kuyu friends: Augustine, Thadeus and Vincent. Pray that they will understand the gospel and become some of the first Kuyu believers.
Bill Michaud attended a week of fellowship between the Pawaian and Gimi churches — two people groups who have been growing closer together as the Gimi church leaders have discipled the Pawaian believers for 10 years. During this celebration, “the responsibility for leading the 12 Pawaian churches was transferred from the Gimi men to the Pawaian men. … Keep the groups in your prayers for the Pawaians to be faithful and for the Gimis as they have already identified another group that needs to be discipled.”
