While believers represent a tiny percentage of the population, this is a region where there has been a great legacy of gospel work. Many trainings and outreaches have been done over the years. Churches exist. But the need for more work among the lost of Paschim is great. Unengaged, unreached people groups remain untouched by the gospel. Thousands of villages have no church nearby. Pray Luke 10:2 over this area, asking the Lord to send more laborers into this harvest field. Pray, also, that many local believers will catch His vision and begin actively sharing the gospel and discipling new believers in their own communities.","URL":"","Email":"","Pronunciation":"mah-huh-RAHSH-truh","ContextID":"AG500","ContextName":"South Asian Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-08-06T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-11-04T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1785974400,"SunsetDateUnix":1793750400,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-08-06T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-11-04T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"cbac7c95-f975-f111-b253-6045bd4bd506","SubfolderId":"62bdb18f-5549-f111-bec6-6045bd07e441","Heading":"Peoples of the Shan State Province, Myanmar","LocationID":"d028a521-e533-4228-a09d-26471cd22ff0","Location":"Myanmar","TypeID":0,"TypeName":"","RequestText":"Believers write: \"We hold 40-day trainings in different areas of our province throughout the year.

In April, you were asked to pray for a pastor, Manish, and his wife, Amyra, who had recently welcomed their new baby boy into the world. Give thanks to God that he has been a healthy and happy baby! The family is still in great need of prayer, however, as they have lately encountered some intense financial and familial struggles. Please lift them before the Father, who is faithful to provide. Also pray that those in their congregation and the different fellowships that Manish oversees will have an understanding that some seasons of life require less time for ministry, as Manish needs to provide for the family.","URL":"","Email":"","Pronunciation":"kohl-KAH-tah","ContextID":"AG500","ContextName":"South Asian Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-08-01T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-10-30T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1785542400,"SunsetDateUnix":1793318400,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-08-01T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-10-30T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"3a9f413e-2374-f111-b254-6045bd488235","SubfolderId":"29d169b1-1ff0-4a53-b9f2-87cebfa74bec","Heading":"Last Frontier","LocationID":"00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000","Location":"Last Frontier","TypeID":176500003,"TypeName":"People Groups","RequestText":"Thank God for the eight university students who traveled to minister to an unreached people group (UPG) for two weeks in June.

However, they have had a longstanding connection for centuries. The German Christian reformation led to an interest in Ethiopia, specifically in its language and Orthodox Christian traditions. Today, approximately 22,500 Ethiopians from the Amhara people group live in Germany. Many moved to Germany to take advantage of better job opportunities and education. Although the language poses a challenge, many are establishing a new home with a mixture of both cultures. Those coming from an Orthodox Christian background sometimes hold to the faith of their community and rely on following traditions, over biblical truth, to demonstrate their faith. Pray for the Ethiopian Amhara people of Germany to see beyond the traditions and discover a relationship with God that comes from an understanding of Scripture. Ask the Spirit to grow their love and affection for Jesus, allowing Him to be the Savior and Lord of their lives. Pray that many Amhara will follow Christ and share the gospel with others. Pray that they will find a Christ-centered community of believers among the churches in Germany where they can connect and grow.","URL":"","Email":"","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG200","ContextName":"Northern African and Middle Eastern Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-07-25T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-10-23T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1784937600,"SunsetDateUnix":1792713600,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-07-25T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-10-23T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"775e4273-fa5b-f111-9b48-000d3ad44bf8","SubfolderId":"7e36b86f-f8d4-43c6-b120-50ac8b5499fb","Heading":"People of Incheon and Gyeonggi Province in Korea","LocationID":"00ba4319-fe4e-40a0-aaaf-6830a02f2e53","Location":"South Korea","TypeID":176500003,"TypeName":"People Groups","RequestText":"(IN-chon; KYUNG-ghee) - Missionaries write: \"This summer, many volunteer teams will be coming to serve across Incheon and the Gyeonggi region, partnering with local churches in a variety of ministries.

Joyful Song Café is an outreach ministry that was started by the Kobe Team last year for Japanese people who do not yet know Christ. Through learning English worship songs in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere, participants are naturally introduced to Christianity and the love of Jesus. This ministry is especially meaningful because it is carried out in partnership with local Japanese Christians. Please pray that many people will join us for this summer party and experience the joy of God's family and the fellowship of His kingdom.

Parks are full of picnickers, while riverwalks see crowds of shoppers pass by, occasionally stopping to linger at ice cream cafés. With so many people out and about, believers and churches in different cities often host evangelism events, set up tables for Bible distribution, and seek other opportunities to meet and engage people. For example, a few years ago, Esma met a small group of believers on a major shopping street who shared the gospel with her for the very first time. Now she is a faithful participant herself, sharing in both her heart language and as much of the new language she is learning as possible. Give thanks to the Lord for Esma's journey to saving faith in Christ!

Thousands of Sudanese have left the instability in their home country to find refuge and start a new life in their adopted country. Many of them work hard to pay rent and put food on the table. Recently, a believer has seen a miracle take place among these struggling refugees. Three single men and two couples have established a house church with the help of the believer. They decided to come together to worship God faithfully because of God's goodness to them. Despite their struggles at work, they agreed to bring their tithes and offerings as part of their worship. The men divided themselves into groups to minister the gospel to Sudanese in homes, refugee camps, and on the streets. Their vision is to grow spiritually and numerically as they faithfully teach the Bible and encourage their countrymen. Pray that the Holy Spirit will empower the Sudanese believers to remain faithful to Christ and to obey the Great Commission. Ask God to establish and build their church. Pray for unity and love among these believers, and ask that they will be a witness to their community.","URL":"","Email":"","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG200","ContextName":"Northern African and Middle Eastern Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-06-16T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-09-14T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1781568000,"SunsetDateUnix":1789344000,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-06-16T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-09-14T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"01fb23e1-7748-f111-9a90-0022488d83c0","SubfolderId":"09e52e47-99ad-4eb2-8318-00f41c879b8c","Heading":"Peoples of the Indian Ocean Islands","LocationID":"6c2e4daf-c077-4774-988f-1a9908aa821a","Location":"Madagascar","TypeID":176500003,"TypeName":"People Groups","RequestText":"Pray for workers who formerly served on one of the Indian Ocean islands.

For many years, the campus sustained its ministry through a small pig-raising program that taught practical farming skills and helped provide food for the students. Last year, disease wiped out the pigs, leaving no resources to restart the program. The pastor prayed, trusting God to provide. Recently, a church from a nearby city visited the campus and recognized an opportunity to invest in what God was already doing. Through their generosity, 15 new piglets were provided, allowing the program to begin again.
