Thank you for your faithful prayers for the ministry of FAME. Your support reaches our partners, staff, board members, volunteers, trip participants, scholarship students, and special projects. Each day, lives around the world are being transformed through your commitment to prayer.
Reading a devotion by Lysa TerKeurst recently was a great reminder that in addition to prayer reading the Word is also paramount. Lysa tells us that, The Israelites’ dependence on God for physical sustenance and satisfaction served as a continual reminder of their need to depend on Him spiritually as well. They didn’t just need the rain for immediate nourishment for their plants. It served a dual purpose, enabling the crops to flourish that year as well as to produce the seeds necessary for the following year. The water provided not only sustenance for the present but assurance for the future. How like the Word of God.
Scripture, like rain, brings us immediate nourishment and refreshment for our present circumstances (Psalm 19:7-10), and it also waters seeds to sustain us in the future (Isaiah 55:10). God already sees everything coming our way, and that means He knows exactly how to prepare us. – What an encouragement!
This month, items of prayer include a short-term mission trip to the Dominican Republic to serve with GO Ministries in Santiago. The medical team will spend three days helping lead mobile medical clinics alongside GO’s local medical staff. This team will intentionally serve in GO Church Planting communities so the clinics can be an effective outreach tool for local pastors.
Please also pray for our FAME Board members who serve the ministry. Pray for wisdom and discernment as they continue to guide the ministry.
Other items of prayer include FAME Executive Director Bill Warren, as he speaks to partner churches and then travels to Kenya at the end of the month to visit FAME partners. Pray also for Director of Mission Resources Barry Reed, who will be traveling to the Dominican Republic to visit partners there and help determine their needs for upcoming medical equipment shipments.
Lastly, please partner with us in praying for our volunteer groups and individual volunteers listed on the calendar this month. FAME could not do all we do without them, as they generously share their time and talents in service to the ministry.
Thank you for your partnership and blessings in the coming month
