- Supported Workers: Goran (& Beth) Tomic, Matt (& Laura) Pheneger, Jon (& Ruthie)
- Country: United States of America
- Details: Pray for Goran as he travels to Brazil this month to teach a ministry course. In June, Pastor Jasmin will host a large youth festival for people from the countries of the former Yugoslavia. Ambassadors Football has been asked to coordinate sports activities for the week-long festival. It will be a chance for former ethnic enemies to come together and show the unity only Jesus can bring—the one who reconciles enemies to himself and to one another. Pray for God’s blessing on this youth festival and for other upcoming camps as preparations are made for summer ministries, including new ministry projects in Poland and Italy. Turks & Caicos Islands (Caribbean). Population: 46,431 Believers: 32.4%. Christian values in society are challenged by offshore finance with its frequent money laundering, by tourism with its increasing licentiousness, and by illegal drug trafficking. Pray that churches might address these through holy living and genuine faith. Tuvalu (Pacific). Population: 11,478 Believers: 17.8%. Tuvalu faces an uncertain future. Very limited resources, possible rising sea levels and modern/global external influences make this traditional culture fragile, both environmentally and socially. Pray that wisdom would prevail in preserving Tuvalu as a nation and culture, and that the long-standing presence of the church would play a major role in this.
