Greece

Pray for a team from Skipton visiting the One Heart medical clinic in Athens this month. They will be running medical clinics and spending time with refugees, sharing God's love and hearing their stories. Pray for safety, wisdom and great fellowship, and that lives are changed both physically and spiritually by this work.

Greece was the first European country to hear the gospel in about 49AD. Today 98% are Greek Orthodox and only 0.3% evangelical believers. Pray for those partnering with several Greek evangelical and immigrant churches in youth work, discipleship, and ministry.

Please pray for Greece and for an Al Massira Journey taking place amongst precious Iranians and Afghans in Athens. Pray for them, as the Journey materials have taken them to the Messiah episode. Pray for breakthrough and revelation in each precious participant’s heart and mind to recognise the Messiah, God’s plan of Salvation and the same unified message throughout the Bible. Pray for unity and encouragement. That each seeker would know their every need is met truly, fully and so wonderfully in the LORD Jesus alone. May they find true rest for their souls found only in the Good Shepherd.

Pray for the planning of the "Trash 2 Treasure" installation that will be located at the Petalouda Centre, an outreach to the Roma community in Athens. Pray that this small-scale plastics recycling project will help many people see how Jesus can take their brokenness and give them new life and purpose through Him.

Greece and Cyprus have had to bear an inequitable share of bearing up the lives of those fleeing their home countries. Pray that BMS and All4Aid will help advocate to make Greece and Cyprus fairer places for people on the move and to keep their plight high on the agenda of European nations. Give thanks for the safe space for women and girls that BMS partner All4Aid provides on Lesbos, Greece. Pray that as well as being able to shower, wash clothes, pick up essential items and chat, the centre users would experience a deep sense of God’s love.
