As we go about our work here in Aden please give prayers of thanks for all the work that is being done in, with and through Christ Church in Aden and ask for the Lord’s help in the following particular areas:
- for wisdom for the government and rulers of Yemen;
- for protection of all those who love and serve the Lord throughout Aden;
- for the staff of Christ Church and their families, whether they are near or far; and
- for provision of people, resources and money so that the work of the clinics and Christ Church itself can continue.
Gracious Lord, our heavenly Father,
As the Queen of Sheba long ago sought the wisdom of Solomon to rule Yemen, so may its leaders today seek your wisdom to govern well for the good of all people.
Lord Jesus Christ, may Christ Church Aden, which so gladly bears your name bring life, love, healing and hope to many in Yemen through its worship and witness and the work of the clinics at Ras Morbat.
Holy Spirit of God, we thank you for inspiring, protecting and sustaining the ministry through Christ Church. May it ever be a work of faith and a labour of love. Give to all who serve you there buoyant faith, generous hearts and good understanding.
We ask these prayers in the name of Jesus Christ our Lord for his glory.
Amen
