Prayer Points for the Songhai, Tamashek, & Fulani
Pray that the Holy Spirit would move in this area and open ears, eyes, hearts and minds to hear, understand and accept His Word as truth.
Pray that the people of Ayorou township would realize that there is only one way to have eternal life - to know the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the One He sent to earth (John 17:3).
Ask God for entire families to follow Christ and for several churches to be birthed in the area. Those churches and families would then spread the news to their families who live in the bush villages!

Stories from the Field
Persecuted Church: South Asia
BIHARI MUSLIMS OF INDIA (bee-HAR-ree). An unbelieving man recently beat
his brother, a follower of Jesus, and his brother's wife. The man also
stopped them from meeting in the place where they and others had
been gathering for worship.
"But our brothers and sisters did not give
up," writes a prayer advocate for the Muslims of Bihar. "They
found a cowshed, and they are meeting there every Sunday. They go early
every Sunday to clear the mess and tidy up the place for worship. I
thank God for their unfailing faith as they make adjustments at every
testing. May God help them grow roots to weather whatever storms come
their way. Let us not take for granted the 'luxuries' we are enjoying.
There are many things we can be thankful for when we look at the
situation of our brethren. Count our blessings and share with the less
fortunate."
