Details: Praise God for the dozens of international students who were matched with local Christian families over the Easter weekend for a meal. Pray that God would use those relationships to bring students into God's Kingdom. There is a growing Christian community among the international students on campus. Pray that the Spirit would transform lives and equip students to be a light to their friends. Pray for open doors to the gospel among seekers in Bible studies. Baby Adeline's one working kidney is doing its job. Continue to pray as they monitor her through regular ultrasounds. In Thailand, the university term break begins in April and most of the students leave town. Amy Cottle has been studying the Bible with two students. Please pray for Pack as he graduates and for Jo, who is a freshman. Pray that they will see the importance of knowing God’s Word and holding fast to their faith in a Buddhist society. Uzbekistan (Asia). Population: 35,673,804 Believers: 0.3%. Uzbek believers continue to increase despite great opposition. The prospect of retribution from three sides—the government, local Muslim leaders, and the community (family and neighbours)—has not halted growth. There are now probably more than 10,000 Uzbek believers, where there were possibly none only a generation ago. But much prayer is still needed for the discipling and mentoring of new believers and for indigenous leadership to be raised up. From Operation World DVD-ROM 2010 and www.operationworld.org
