Prayer

Daily Prayer Reqests

  • We received the following anonymous request “Please pray for me and my family. My dad is extremely abusive so I’ve moved out and made healthy boundaries, but now he’s trying to use my aunts to get at me by telling them that I’m making up that he’s abusive - even though I’ve never spoken to them about anything. My mom is very prideful about her family knowing the truth and doesn’t want them to know about dad’s abuse of our family. So I don’t know what to do because I can’t tell them the truth, but he can spread lies about me that they are believing in the absence of truth. He’s also started telling the same lies to our family friends. My dad says he’s a Christian even though he abuses my mom every day. I just don’t know what to do. Please pray God would do something. I’m really struggling. Please also pray I’d know how to think about my dad being a Christian my whole life and yet doing all the horrible things he has done and does everyday. It’s hard to understand what Jesus really thinks about it all and about dad.”

  • This Sunday we're going to one of the parks after church to spend time with the Muslim family who attended our Easter service. They invited the whole Arabic church for a special Iraqi meal (DOLMA). Pray God will open their hearts to His word and they'll become a good soil.

  • Prayer for my mom to get a doctor’s appointment in two weeks, she needs to know this week for preparation.

  • Pray for the family that is hosting our weekly home group in Boise. The mother is having physical therapy for her legs on Thursday evenings. We need to stop the meeting for one month or find another day which is very difficult.

  • A family moved lately into Nampa, they're looking for a church to attend. The husband is Iranian who doesn't understand Arabic. The wife would like to attend our Arabic service but she is hesitant and doesn't want to leave her husband home.

  • Please pray for our missionaries to Germany, Clark and Ann Peddicord who are currently in Boise, who sent the following updates and prayer requests:

    • Regarding Clarks health situation- I’m slowly recovering and regaining my strength and balance after the surgery and hospital stay - the physicians are still trying to figure out what caused the fluid on both lungs... the current “best guess” is either auto-immune issues or some kind of tricky malignancy that hasn’t showed itself in any tests to date.I am scheduled to meet with a top rheumatologist on 28. May to discuss the auto-immune possibility - by which time he will have gotten back some high-powered blood tests from various labs. If that comes up with nothing, then it will probably be a round with the hematologist and oncologist and possibly bone-marrow tests

    • Pentecost is coming! Next Sunday is Pentecost Sunday, and I would really like to finish up the Bible study guide on the Holy Spirit that I have been working on during the “COVID” time. It is in the final proof-reading and graphics phase right now. Would you please pray that all the pieces fall into place and it can be released for publication by the middle of this week?
