Dear Prayer Partner,

Thank you so much for your continued faithfulness in praying for the ministry of FAME. It is truly a blessing to know you come alongside us each day, lifting up our staff, board members, mission partners, trip participants, scholarship recipients, volunteers, medical shipments, healthcare projects, church visits, and so many other aspects of ministry.

This month, we especially ask for prayer for our faithful volunteers, both individuals and groups, who generously give their time and talents so people around the world can receive much-needed medical supplies and hear the Good News of Jesus. Our volunteers serve in many ways, including inventorying, sorting, labeling, maintenance, and data entry. FAME truly could not do what it does without them.

We also request prayer for an upcoming shipping container filled with medical supplies and equipment that will be loaded and sent mid-month to Ghana for Ghana Christian Mission. In addition, several smaller shipments will be sent to Hope 2 Liberia, OMS, United Christians International, Northwest Haiti, and other partners. Please pray for smooth passage through customs and that God would be glorified through the medical care these supplies will provide.

Please continue to pray for the FAME staff as well. Our team works diligently behind the scenes to support our global partners, coordinate medical supply shipments, prepare and lead mission teams, and steward wisely the resources God has provided. Pray for unity, clear direction, and strength and encouragement for each staff member as they serve.

Lastly, we ask for prayer for Executive Director Bill Warren and Director of Development Jeff Coon as they travel to conferences and churches across the U.S. on behalf of FAME. Pray that meaningful connections will be made and that new opportunities will open, allowing even more people around the world to hear the Good News of Jesus.

Thank you again for standing with FAME in prayer

February Prayer Calendar

For most of us, bloodwork is routine.

A quick draw. A short wait. Answers the same day—or at least soon enough to act.

But for many of the patients served by FAME partner clinics around the world, bloodwork is anything but simple.

In villages where FAME partners operate basic clinics, medical providers can often draw blood, but the results may take two or three days to return. That delay creates a serious problem. Many patients have already walked half a day or more just to reach the clinic. Missing work again, leaving family responsibilities behind, or making another long journey simply isn’t realistic. Without answers, treatment waits. And sometimes, lives are put at risk.

One such patient was a mother named Meena.

She knew something was wrong, but no one could tell her what. She had already visited a Hindu priest and local healers in her village, hoping for relief. Nothing helped. Finally, she made the long journey to a clinic partnered with FAME.

The provider there listened carefully and asked thoughtful questions—but it was clear that bloodwork was necessary. Meena’s blood was drawn, but the results wouldn’t be available for three days. With no choice, she returned home without answers.

Here’s the good news.

A pastor connected to the clinic learned of her situation. He made a six-hour motorcycle ride to Meena’s village—carrying her test results and simple medication that would completely turn her health around.

She was healed.

But here’s the hard truth: not every patient has a pastor who can make a six-hour motorcycle trip. Not every story ends that way.

That’s why this clinic has asked FAME to partner with them to acquire a hematology analyzer—a piece of equipment that will allow full blood panels to be processed within hours, while patients are still near the clinic.

No multi-day wait.
No long return journey.
No unnecessary risk.

This single piece of equipment will dramatically change outcomes for countless patients—mothers, fathers, children—who simply need answers in time to receive treatment.

Because of your generosity, FAME is able to respond to requests like this. Because of your partnership, critical, life-saving equipment can be placed where it is needed most.

Thank you for walking with FAME.

Thank you for helping bring healing—and hope—to the world’s most vulnerable.

Seven years ago, a young couple stepped onto red Malawian soil for the first time. They did not arrive with a long list of programs or a master plan to change a nation. They arrived with a simple burden for people who were sick, afraid, and walking for hours just to find help.

When we recently sat with the founders of Akonda Ministries, they began
listing what now exists in that same community:
clean water flowing again through repaired wells…
schools strengthened…
girls staying in class…
business training creating income…
food in times of crisis…
Bibles in thousands of hands…
and just this week—a brand-new preschool opening its doors.

Then they paused and said quietly, “It all started with the hospital.”

Before there were classrooms, there were sick children.
Before there were businesses, there were mothers giving birth on dirt floors.
Before there were Bible distributions, there were families walking four hours just hoping to survive.

And God used a hospital to change everything.

When a child survives pneumonia, they can go to school.
When a mother survives childbirth, she can raise her family.
When a father receives treatment instead of despair, he can start a business.
When people experience God’s love through healing hands, they want to know the Healer.

Now FAME is helping build the Maternity Center that will connect to the pediatric center—so the very first breath of life can happen in safety and compassion. Babies will be born where they can immediately be protected. Mothers will no longer have to choose between hope and survival.

The gospel spreads fastest where love is most tangible. And in Malawi, love took the shape of a hospital.

Thank you for being part of this story. Your generosity didn’t just build walls—it opened a doorway for God’s love to flood an entire community. And seven years later, the ripple is still growing.

As we look back on this year, one word rises above the rest: faithfulness.

Faithfulness from God, who continues to open doors where care is scarce.

Faithfulness from partners like you, who ensured help arrived exactly where it was needed most.

Because of your faithfulness, care reached 69 global mission partners this year. More than $1.8 million in medical resources were deployed through 177 shipments, strengthening clinics, protecting mothers, and bringing compassionate care to refugee families. From the warehouse to the world, you helped turn compassion into care.

This year, Short-Term Trips continued to change lives. 123 participants traveled on 12 trips to 9 countries, serving alongside local partners and witnessing firsthand what God is doing through medical ministry. Even more encouraging, new trip leaders have been trained—and some are preparing to lead their very first teams in 2026

You also invested in the future of healthcare ministry. 8 scholarship recipients are currently in medical, nursing, or medical-adjacent training, representing 5 countries. Each one is deeply grateful for people like you who chose to “pay it forward,” equipping the next generation to serve with skill, compassion, and faith.

At the same time, 17 sustainable projects—including hospitals, health centers, diagnostic facilities, clinics, medical staff housing,

health prevention initiatives, mobile clinics, and ambulances—were funded, constructed, or equipped in 9 countries. These are not temporary solutions, but lasting expressions of hope in communities that need them most.

Altogether, this ministry resulted in over two million people hearing the gospel as they were treated compassionately in the name of Jesus.

On Christmas Day, I received photos of 12 baptisms in Tanzania—at a church connected to a clinic that you helped make possible. You helped fund the clinic, ship the equipment, and this year a short-term team will walk alongside local believers at that clinic. This is the beautiful, eternal impact of faithfulness.

Thank you for walking with FAME this year. Because you gave, care arrived. Because you partnered, hope endured. And because God is faithful, the story is far from over.

With gratitude,

Bill Warren
Executive Director

Dear Prayer Partner,

As we step into a new year, we want to begin by thanking you for your faithful partnership in prayer. Your prayers are an important part of the ministry of FAME. Because of faithful prayer warriors like you, lives around the world are being touched through medical evangelism, bringing healing both physically and spiritually. As we reflect on the past year, we are grateful for God’s provision and guidance, and we look ahead to 2026 with hope, trusting that the Lord will continue to lead us.

This month, please partner with us in praying for the following that are on each day of the January calendar:

• God’s provision for the ministry in the coming year.
• The FAME Board of Directors as they lead the ministry.
• Two upcoming short-term medical mission teams—one serving in India with NACEA (North Andhra Coastal Evangelizing Association) and one serving in Thailand with ACS (Asia Christian Services). Please pray not only for the teams, but also for those they will serve. The ACS clinic on the Thailand/Myanmar border (formerly Burma) ministers to refugees that have left Myanmar, as well as people living in the surrounding communities.

Thank you for walking alongside us in prayer. We are deeply grateful for your faithfulness and partnership.

“The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness” (Lamentations 3:22–23, ESV). What a gift it is to enter this new season resting in God’s unfailing love and daily mercies.

Blessings in the coming year!
