Day 20

More than 25,000 Muslim refugees live on the island of Lesbos in Greece. Lesbos is a favorite destination for smugglers who charge refugees 1,000 euros to crowd in with 50 others into a rubber boat designed for 15 people. Most refugees live in a cramped camp with 20,000 other refugees. In the midst of this, God is at work. One Central Asian leader named Haza* lives in Lesbos so he can share Christ boldly, disciple believers, and form churches.

Pray for Haza as he shares, disciples, and trains leaders in a difficult place.

Thank you for praying

Thank you for joining us in prayer for Muslims during Ramadan. As we hear of updates, we will share them in the "Answer to Prayer" section on the app.

Day 31

Muslims conclude the last day of Ramadan with Eid al-Fitr (the Festival of Fast-Breaking). Entire neighborhoods may come together over a huge feast, complete with fireworks and gifts, to celebrate their endurance and generosity toward others during Ramadan. However, when life goes back to normal after the feast, many Muslims report feeling sad or disappointed. Some hoped their fasting would yield a felt nearness to Allah, but instead they feel just as distant as they did before Ramadan began. Pray for God to use the days following Ramadan to steer Muslims toward truth. Ask God to put believers in their path who can share the gospel and invite them into eternal assurance of salvation.

Day 30

As Ramadan comes to an end, it is tradition for children to return home and ask their parents for forgiveness for wrongs they have committed. Pray that as they seek to honor their earthly fathers, they will see the living God as Father. Pray for the parents approached by their children. Ask God to use this tradition to help them think about the ways they have fallen short of Allah’s holiness and whether they can obtain guaranteed forgiveness from him. Pray that this leads them to the Word and a believer who can share how their sins can be forgiven.
