Romania

The Standard Romani translation team are working to translate the Bible into the language of the Roma people in Romania. The committee wants to start an organisation, The Word for Roma, to have more impact in the lives of Roma people. Pray that this will be able to happen. Pray for strong and fruitful collaboration with Romanian language teachers following their September meeting, so that language skills can support clear and faithful Bible translation. Pray that Jesus continues to guide the Standard Romani team in all they do following a busy summer, so their work brings lasting fruit among the Roma people.

Romania shares a border with Ukraine and so many of the local Christian churches in Romania are helping Ukrainian refugees. Some of the churches are helping Ukrainian children to access school so that they can continue with their education. They told us that they can easily provide clothes, but food is a daily need, so a constant supply is needed for Ukrainian families coming to the church. Please pray for these churches who have limited resources themselves and are doing all they can to show the love of God in very practical ways.
