MUSLIM MINISTRIES USA: 10.6.2009

What this ministry all about? Good question. You can learn more about how World Gospel Mission is sharing the love of Christ with Muslim communities living in the US at http://www.wgm.org/muslimminusa

Muslims throughout the world need to know that Christ loves them and died for them. Pray for open hearts and for more workers to reach this people group.

How can you make a missions impact? Identify a Muslim living near you and introduce yourself. Then, pray for his or her salvation every Friday, as Friday is their day of prayer.

WGM is blessed that God has opened this ministry to Muslims in the United States in cooperation with Arab World Ministries, an evangelical mission focused on enabling people of the Arab world to proclaim Christ as their Savior. Please pray that God will grant singleness of heart in this partnership.


HERE'S HOW YOU CAN PRAY:
Lord, Be with the Muslim population now residing in the United States. Let them feel Your love even though they may be persecuted by others. Use Your church to show the real God to the Muslims. Help me to be more accepting so that my life will exemplify You. Use me to reach the searching Muslim population. I love You, Lord. Amen.

October 5: Hispanic Ministries USA

Thanks to all of you who joined the concert today for the Hispanic Ministries in the U.S. This field will focus most of its energies into church ministries. Keeping in mind that church is more than a building, each one of us are the church. We are the hands and feet of ministry. How are you sharing the gospel with Latin Americans living in your neighborhood? Need an idea on how to get started? Evangelism begins with relationship. Bake some cookies and share them with your neighbors. A little conversation over coffee and cookies could lead to eternal impact.

Remember that since we entered a new section of the world a new podcast is available on the website. Just click the podcast graphic and listen.

See you at the concert!

Now Entering North America

Leaving Central America...
Next Stop North America

If you were able to join the concert on Saturday you know that Debbie Hawk led us in prayer for the ministries of El Salvador. That was our last concert for the Central America region and today we entered North America with a concert for the ministries of Mexico.

We seemed to have another technical glitch today with a conference phone not working. There has been more difficulties this year than we experienced last. I think God's people are praying. I have heard from some of you saying that even though you were unable to attend or hear the concert you have been praying. Please keep praying. Pray that God will bless the efforts of this ministry and that He will be glorified.

A prayer was recorded today so if you would like to hear the concerns for the World Gospel Mission Mexico field you can hear that here.

Join the concert tomorrow as we pray for the new ministry of Hispanic Ministries in the United States.

October 2: Nicaragua

Tim Hawk, Regional Director of Central America and Hispanic Ministries, led us in prayer for the ministries of Nicaragua. The prayer request we offer in the magazine well describe the ministries taking place there. Please continue to lift these requests before the throne.

>> WGM IS PARTNERING with AMSLA (Latin American Holiness Missionary Agency) in its ministry efforts in Nicaragua. Please pray for Ubaldo and Teresa Salazar, World Gospel Mission’s only missionary couple serving on this field, as they seek direction in their outreach efforts.

>> HEALTHY TWO-PARENT FAMILIES are far less common than you would think. Pray that God will work in the lives of families as the Salazars model a healthy family relationship.

>> NICARAGUA HAS THE third-lowest per capita income in the Western Hemisphere. Pray for God’s strength to sustain those who may be wondering where their next meal will come from.

Entering Central America

HONDURAS

Career missionary, DeeAnn Rich led the concert of prayer today for the ministries of Honduras. If you missed the concert listen here.

Honduras has been faced with uncertainty these past couple of months. Due to political conflict several short-term trips into Honduras have been cancelled. If there was ever an urgent need for prayer the time is now in Honduras.

Pray that God will grant peace. That our missionary staff will continue to be safe and pray for our mission leaders as they continue to monitor the situation. May God's will be done in Honduras!

Catch the concert tomorrow as we pray for Nicaragua.
