His mother found out about his faith but said that she wasn't interested in following Jesus. Recently, however, she confided in her son that she had a spiritual dream. In the dream, she was reading and reciting the Quran. Every time she read a verse in this book that Muslims consider holy and God-given, a demon would appear before her. In Islamic thought, the reading of the Quran is supposed to drive away demons, not cause them to appear! So, after hearing about his mother's dream, Bassel told her that the reason the demons were appearing is because the Quran is not from God. Give thanks to God for giving Bassel the boldness to share his faith in his family and beyond! Pray that just like some of his friends have already believed, more of his friends and family members will follow suit by boldly believing in, following, and proclaiming Jesus -- just as Bassel has.","URL":"","Email":"","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG200","ContextName":"Northern African and Middle Eastern Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-06-06T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-09-04T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1780704000,"SunsetDateUnix":1788480000,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-06-06T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-09-04T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"bb7b151d-5148-f111-9a90-6045bd483aa4","SubfolderId":"90ffea55-7d1d-4d51-a740-efeed5f247c3","Heading":"Bangkok, Thailand","LocationID":"2ffdadc0-25ac-45aa-89aa-75dd0d1e958b","Location":"Thailand","TypeID":176500008,"TypeName":"Urban Centers","RequestText":"(BANG-kok) - Thank you all for your prayers for the Bangkok Ministry Center Bible study.

Please pray for the many churches in the Paris area who need to receive permission from their local authorities to participate, and pray that gospel music with a clear message will be sung in festivals across the country.\"","URL":"http://www.imb.org/sub-saharan-africa/","Email":"","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG300","ContextName":"Sub-Saharan African Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-06-03T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-09-01T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1780444800,"SunsetDateUnix":1788220800,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-06-03T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-09-01T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"4b08d647-ac44-f111-9a90-6045bd483aa4","SubfolderId":"371c4e99-2a2b-4cd0-a5bb-bc25da4a21ed","Heading":"Afghans in Tajikistan","LocationID":"a6bf75a1-c96b-4f26-bb91-88e77b94f845","Location":"Tajikistan","TypeID":176500003,"TypeName":"People Groups","RequestText":"Eid al-Adha, the Festival of Sacrifice, which was observed in late May, is one of the most important religious holidays in Tajikistan.

'Lord, we pray for all the people in Pretoria who are Your chosen, born-again ones. We ask that they will be filled with the knowledge of Your will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding! We ask that You empower them to walk in a manner worthy of You! Let their lives be fully pleasing to You. Holy Spirit, let their lives bear fruit in every good work that they do. Would You please strengthen them with all Your power and help them endure with patience and joy! Thank You that You have delivered these Pretorians from the domain of darkness and transferred them to the kingdom of Your Son (Colossians 1:9-14). Let Pretorians proclaim Your praises to Pretorians!'\"</p></div>","URL":"http://www.imb.org/sub-saharan-africa/","Email":"mrsskyscott@gmail.com","Pronunciation":"pri-TOR-ee-uh","ContextID":"AG300","ContextName":"Sub-Saharan African Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-05-16T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-08-14T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1778889600,"SunsetDateUnix":1786665600,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-05-16T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-08-14T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"b072013c-6e27-f111-9a90-7ced8d7c15fa","SubfolderId":"dd2ef329-8899-4454-aa28-c2929f427d1e","Heading":"Vax People of Southeast Asia","LocationID":"d028a521-e533-4228-a09d-26471cd22ff0","Location":"Myanmar","TypeID":176500003,"TypeName":"People Groups","RequestText":"<div class=\"ck-content\" data-wrapper=\"true\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"--ck-image-style-spacing: 1.5em; --ck-inline-image-style-spacing: calc(var(--ck-image-style-spacing) / 2); font-family: Segoe UI; font-size: 11pt;\"><p style=\"margin: 0;\">Please pray that God would do a mighty work through adults and youth who are coming from the U.S. to partner with a group of believers, and one Vax fellowship, at the end of June.

Thank you for praying last month for the digital engagement during the month of Ramadan. Three different videos about God's grace averaged one million views each. As Facebook and Instagram users came across the video, four thousand five hundred of them sent a message. They all had a question or statement. \"As I talked to people on the phone, they went from being harsh and combative online to calm and willing to listen,\" Braden* explained. \"The people I talked to seem to be seeking and were glad to have their questions answered. Pray for the videos that continue to be available online and the messages that trickle in to result in salvations.</p></div>","URL":"","Email":"iam4sea@live.com","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG650","ContextName":"Asian Pacific Rim Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-05-14T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-08-12T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1778716800,"SunsetDateUnix":1786492800,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-05-14T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-08-12T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"f19f77f4-b02e-f111-9a90-7ced8d7c15fa","SubfolderId":"8cc79abd-dc51-4a5e-9839-6d376747ad4d","Heading":"Conakry, Guinea","LocationID":"78157472-cc61-45e0-9ec9-b857cf76b629","Location":"Guinea","TypeID":176500008,"TypeName":"Urban Centers","RequestText":"(KON-ah-kree) - <div class=\"ck-content\" data-wrapper=\"true\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"--ck-image-style-spacing: 1.5em; --ck-inline-image-style-spacing: calc(var(--ck-image-style-spacing) / 2); font-family: Segoe UI; font-size: 11pt;\"><p style=\"margin: 0;\">In March, workers in Guinea began a Send Relief project to provide water for a remote village in Guinea.

We hope to love the students well, share culture, and introduce them to the Sunday morning Bible class and the church. Please pray for these students. Ask God to work in their hearts.

Prices will increase on most supplies due to an increased delivery cost. The price increase of fuel will also create a rise in the price of taxi fares. Many Basotho rely on taxis to conduct business affairs and to take them to their jobs or to clinics. Because of job scarcity, this additional expense will be a heavy burden for the Basotho.

One student now teaches a Bible study in a community. It began with two women professing faith in Jesus. Those women attended a new Bible study. They then brought two more, who also professed faith in Jesus. These then brought two other women to the study who became believers during the first time they attended the Bible study. Will you answer God's call to pray for the seminary students as they share the gospel? Will you pray for God to soften more hearts? God wants all people to hear the gospel. These students are in the harvest field. Will you join them? \"And the Lord added to their number day by day those who were being saved\" (Acts 2:47 ESV).</p></div>","URL":"http://www.imb.org/sub-saharan-africa/","Email":"","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG300","ContextName":"Sub-Saharan African Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-04-28T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-07-27T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1777334400,"SunsetDateUnix":1785110400,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-04-28T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-07-27T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"9182c566-44f1-449d-b41d-74168f5e0a69","SubfolderId":"e65054fa-7f02-4538-9aaf-57aaf52a8f1e","Heading":"Urban Rose, a City in the Horn of Africa","LocationID":"00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000","Location":"","TypeID":176500008,"TypeName":"Urban Centers","RequestText":"<div class=\"ck-content\" data-wrapper=\"true\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"--ck-image-style-spacing: 1.5em; --ck-inline-image-style-spacing: calc(var(--ck-image-style-spacing) / 2); font-family: Segoe UI; font-size: 11pt;\"><p style=\"margin: 0;\">Genet is ethnically the same as the majority of people in Urban Rose, but she grew up in another country.

Their presence dates back to the Soviet era, when many were exiled from Azerbaijan to Kazakhstan during Stalin's deportations in the 1940s. Though stripped of dignity and stability, Azeris preserved their cultural identity throughout Soviet times. Today, they have integrated into Kazakhstani society with resilience and strength. 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. Additionally, both groups were required to learn Russian during the Communist period, making communication easier for Kazakh believers seeking to share Christ's love. Pray that believers in Kazakhstan will notice the Azeri people around them, develop compassion for them, and actively pray for and reach out to them with the love of Christ. Pray that Azeris in Kazakhstan will choose to follow Jesus and gather with other believers, and ask that God will give wisdom for gospel outreach among them.</p></div>","URL":"","Email":"centralasianpeoples@protonmail.com","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG400","ContextName":"Central Asian Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-04-25T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-07-24T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1777075200,"SunsetDateUnix":1784851200,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-04-25T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-07-24T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"38c1b4e4-5d69-48d8-9af6-b77d76226bc5","SubfolderId":"53153f25-aa0a-4070-997d-b9d155aa5010","Heading":"Chinese Diaspora in New Zealand and Australia","LocationID":"f4bef745-bd62-4343-a650-ad644822272c","Location":"New Zealand","TypeID":176500003,"TypeName":"People Groups","RequestText":"Please join in prayer for a visa sponsor for workers here.

Pray that these men and women will take this challenge seriously and that God will reveal to them where He wants to use them in His kingdom purposes. Ask that they will be able to see the empty fields around them with the same eyes that God sees them and that they will have insight into how to pray for these peoples and places in preparation for bringing them the gospel. Pray that they will return for continued training in how to share the gospel.","URL":"","Email":"jungleharvest@protonmail.com","Pronunciation":"JAHR-kuhnd","ContextID":"AG500","ContextName":"South Asian Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-04-21T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-07-20T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1776729600,"SunsetDateUnix":1784505600,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-04-21T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-07-20T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"e8449b58-b8c1-4127-a5db-d31046d2ca83","SubfolderId":"081bea0e-fd86-4070-aec6-dbafc20cbaac","Heading":"Peoples of Madagascar","LocationID":"6c2e4daf-c077-4774-988f-1a9908aa821a","Location":"Madagascar","TypeID":176500003,"TypeName":"People Groups","RequestText":"<div class=\"ck-content\" data-wrapper=\"true\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"--ck-image-style-spacing: 1.5em; --ck-inline-image-style-spacing: calc(var(--ck-image-style-spacing) / 2); font-family: Segoe UI; font-size: 11pt;\"><p style=\"margin: 0;\">Join a university student serving on a volunteer team in southeastern Madagascar in giving thanks to God for a local believer: \"Christians of Madagascar live by three words: 'Maharetra hatramin'ny farany,' which means 'Live faithfully until the end!'

Yet, they stay faithful! One of these is Jerusha. She welcomed us into her home the first week of our ministry. She truly made us feel like family! I watched her read her Bible late into the night, faithfully serve her church, and love others. One day, after a teaching about biblical marriage, she told us how hard it was to follow Christ's design for marriage. Faithful marriage is challenging in many parts of Madagascar, where often divorce, adultery, and polygamy are rampant. Jerusha said that she wanted to stay faithful to her husband even though he'd ordered her three times to leave. She wanted to follow God's plan for marriage, not her culture's!

Some have come as refugees, fleeing war or persecution, while others have immigrated for education or employment opportunities or to be near family. Many come, expecting the West to be a \"promised land,\" but often find roadblocks to creating a better life. Iranians speak Farsi or Persian and Afghans speak Dari, but the languages are very similar. In Canada, Persians must learn English or French to do well. Iranians and Afghans are Muslims by birth. There are many Iranian churches and discipleship groups throughout the diaspora, but the number of believing and gathering Afghans is much smaller.

Through a Send Relief community development grant, he designed a next-step welding program to give rehabilitants a chance to learn a trade. Marko was one such man. With Tomas' help, he left the streets, found the Source of hope and sobriety, and discovered that he was a gifted welder. Work, however, was scarce.

This is just one such scene as six different house churches meet across the city of Pretoria. 'Junctions' is the name of this community of house churches. On the first and third Sundays of the month, the house churches meet in homes. On the second and fourth Sundays, the believers from all the house churches meet together for corporate worship at a green space just outside the city. Please pray for the believers who meet together in these house churches.

Pray that her friend will have opportunities to walk alongside her in her grief and offer her comfort and hope in Jesus. Ask God to use this season to open her heart to receive the truth of the gospel. Pray for Farah's salvation. \"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our affliction, so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God\" (2 Corinthians 1:3-4 ESV).","URL":"","Email":"","Pronunciation":"","ContextID":"AG200","ContextName":"Northern African and Middle Eastern Peoples","SunriseDate":"2026-03-10T00:00:00","SunsetDate":"2026-06-08T00:00:00","SunriseDateUnix":1773100800,"SunsetDateUnix":1780876800,"SunriseDateRaw":"2026-03-10T00:00:00","SunsetDateRaw":"2026-06-08T00:00:00"},{"PrayerID":"4cf04c30-4468-45d7-ae0d-177fff61fadf","SubfolderId":"2fb2aa01-aee0-4833-9b63-df03d5c4fc0a","Heading":"Peoples of the Chambal Region of India","LocationID":"b2257062-7489-493b-a44f-99d1749ced60","Location":"India","TypeID":176500003,"TypeName":"People Groups","RequestText":"(CHUM-bul) - The Chambal region is a 45,000-kilometer area (about the size of West Virginia) in the northern part of the state of Madhya Pradesh, India.
