19. GANGAI OF NEPAL.

IMB Pray

19. GANGAI OF NEPAL.

Praise God for the Gangai fellowship in Nepal that started gathering a year ago and recently self-identified as a church. Pray that they will continue to grow deeply in the Lord and to share the gospel with those around them. Ask God for wisdom as they appoint leaders.

31. DIWALI FESTIVAL.

During Diwali, the “Festival of Lights,” Hindus celebrate two Hindu gods and the victory of good over evil. Jesus said, “I am the light of the world...” (John 8:12). During Diwali, pray many Hindus will receive new life from Jesus, the Light of Life.

30. TIHAR FESTIVAL.

When they die, Hindus believe they will begin a fateful journey alone and will be judged by the god Yama. During Tihar, Nepalese Hindus reflect on death. Pray God will soften their hearts to receive the gospel and Christians will share the good news of eternal life.

29. CARING FOR THE NEEDY.

As many South Asian churches care for people in slum communities through education, healthcare, and addiction recovery programs, pray that more will join the work, sharing the gospel and love of Christ in word and deed.
