However, only Afar men are permitted to enter the mosques. Many Afar women are pious, but none of them can set foot in their religious buildings. Instead, women practice their prayers privately at home and hear religious teachings and news secondhand from their husbands, brothers, and other male family members. Furthermore, Muslim women are considered to be unclean during their monthly cycles and cannot pray or participate in any religious activities during that time. Please pray for Afar women, and ask the Father to draw them to Himself. Pray that they will hear and understand the gospel and accept Christ's cleansing once and for all so they can come before the Father at any time. Intercede also for Afar men who enter the mosque daily.

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!

The students had a lot of questions, and two of them wanted Bibles, which the believers had with them and were able to give to them. Please pray for these university students.

After the conversation, the believer asked if he could pray for her. Gladly agreeing, Tagreed said that she desired peace and freedom. What a prayer request! The believer then shared that true freedom comes only through Jesus: \"The truth will set you free. . . . So if the Son sets you free, you really will be free (John 8:32-36 CSB). Pray that Tagreed will encounter the truth through the reading of God's Word and in dreams and visions of Jesus. Ask that she will come to see that true peace and freedom can come only through Jesus and obedient faith in Him. Pray for continued fruitful conversations between Tagreed and her believing friends.</p></div>","URL":"","Email":"","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG200","ContextName":"Northern African and Middle Eastern Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-05-23T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-08-21T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1779494400,"SunsetDateUnix":1787270400,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-05-23T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-08-21T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"1d88a7d0-1f2f-f111-9a90-7ced8d7c15fa","SubfolderId":"1a9fc3d4-45b6-4966-a953-a5af2f3a53e9","Heading":"Central Asian Unengaged Peoples","LocationID":"00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000","Location":"","TypeID":176500007,"TypeName":"Unengaged Peoples","RequestText":"Many people have heard of the&nbsp;Uighurs of Xinjiang, China, but few know of the many other Central Asians who live there.

Keep praying for the Hungarian young people there as they work to further develop their youth ministry to be both spiritually strengthening for believers and attractive to visitors from the community. The local church was encouraged and challenged to take the next steps in revitalization, beginning in their own lives. The partnership between that Hungarian church and the Oklahoma church continues, with plans for another volunteer team next year.","URL":"http://www.heartforhungary.com/","Email":"","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG100","ContextName":"European Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-05-20T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-08-18T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1779235200,"SunsetDateUnix":1787011200,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-05-20T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-08-18T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"e4e94881-d030-f111-9a90-7ced8d7bdc6b","SubfolderId":"d1d698b8-467e-45cd-afda-b2f076076bb9","Heading":"Karachi, Pakistan","LocationID":"26b555d6-0a41-4d3d-909b-0808bcecf31a","Location":"Pakistan","TypeID":176500008,"TypeName":"Urban Centers","RequestText":"(kah-RAH-chee) - Near the end of May, Muslims around the world will celebrate&nbsp;Eid al-Adha, the&nbsp;Feast of Sacrifice.&nbsp;In the city of Karachi, Pakistani Muslim families will gather together to slaughter an animal, eat some of the meat, save some, and give the rest to the poor.

She married very young, had a son, and felt very controlled by her mother-in-law. Her sisters helped her get out of the marriage; she divorced her husband and moved back in with her parents, along with her baby boy. Her son is now a teenager, and Aleyna herself is still very young. Having felt like she'd missed out on living her life, she took the opportunity to move to Europe when it arose, making one of the most difficult decisions she'd ever had to make: leaving her son in North Africa for her mother to raise. Fortunately, Aleyna didn't come to Europe alone; she's living only minutes from a few of her sisters. Aleyna quickly found work helping a European family in a home where she also lives. She hasn't been able to meet other Europeans because her days are filled with work or preparing meals with her sisters. She also doesn't have as much contact with her son, either from guilt or because she's living a different life than before. Please pray for Aleyna.

While Christianity once held a strong public and community presence in these regions, participation has declined sharply among young adults. Many have stepped away from organized religion, citing institutional fatigue, social mistrust, or a feeling that churches are disconnected from real life. As a result, a growing number of children are now being raised outside the church with little exposure to Christian teaching or community. This generational shift is clearly visible at the local level: many churches are shrinking, aging, consolidating, and a large number no longer have functioning children's or youth programs.

Because Kazakhs (traditionally Sunni Muslims) and Azeris (traditionally Shia Muslims) share Turkic roots and an Islamic heritage, Kazakh followers of Jesus can connect with Azeris culturally.

They are Muslim sisters who are wanting something more but are fearful of losing the only community they have ever known if they were to choose Christ. They grew up in a very strict Muslim home where, at the age of 6, they were required to wear a head covering and wake up at 5 a.m. for the first call to prayer. They want a change from their traditional practices. Pray that the Lord will speak to them in their hearts, giving them a clear picture of what Christ offers. Ask Him to continue to put true followers of Jesus across their path who will have open and honest conversations with them about the gift of salvation through faith in Christ.","URL":"","Email":"","Pronunciation":"pun-JAH-bees","ContextID":"AG500","ContextName":"South Asian Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-04-24T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-07-23T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1776988800,"SunsetDateUnix":1784764800,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-04-24T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-07-23T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"99b451b4-7996-4244-b1ae-f8f8daddb980","SubfolderId":"ec9a4965-afaa-4fe5-a306-4ddc3da4e43d","Heading":"South Mongolic Peoples, East Asia","LocationID":"00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000","Location":"","TypeID":176500003,"TypeName":"People Groups","RequestText":"Please pray for the Eight Steps Training which will be held in Inner Mongolia at the end of April. The Eight Steps process is about creating a culture of evangelism, disciple-making, equipping leaders and sending members as missionaries to reach the nations for the glory of God. These steps are designed to be adaptable and interactive, ensuring a solid, long-term approach to global missions. Ask God to speak through the trainers Kay and Ed as they go and lead this training. Ask God for a safe location for the training site and ask that the ones who attend will be willing to become trainers themselves. Please pray that participants will gain clear insight into what a healthy church looks like and reflect on the health of their own church and ministry.","URL":"","Email":"pray4APAC@imb.org","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG650","ContextName":"Asian Pacific Rim Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-04-24T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-07-23T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1776988800,"SunsetDateUnix":1784764800,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-04-24T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-07-23T00:00:00"}]
