Chad

Please pray for Pastor Parmenas who attended Tearfund’s innovative Transforming Communities training and, in turn, trained his small congregation. More and more people became interested in the programme and, as a result of the Bible studies, change began to occur in their lives. Through the word of God, people realised their skills and resources and used them to put their prayers for their community into practice. Prayer groups blossomed, children remained in school and food was shared ensuring no one went hungry. The women of the congregation also started a savings scheme, enabling them to generate funds for various projects.

Please pray for a general election in Chad. This has been postponed many times due to a climate of instability. Pray that God will use those who know his name to speak out and to bring justice.

Please pray that women would come to hospitals in Chad supported by BMS to give birth and not stay at home. Please pray that when they come, they would see God’s hand in the care given to them and their babies.
