Supported Worker: Johannes (& Mathapelo) Thaele
Country: South Africa
Details: In June, their students hosted a conference for the youth in their community. Pray that many will come to Jesus because of what was shared at the outreach. Pray for God’s guidance as Johannes and his team prepares for VBC. They will be joined by a team from Parkside Church, who will be in South Africa from July 10-19. Pray for their safety in travel, that God will give wisdom and guidance to each one, and that he will use them for his glory. Pray that the Holy Spirit will soften the hearts of the students who will attend the camp to receive the good news. Egypt (Africa). Population: 118,365,995 Believers: 3.9%. A decade has passed since the upheaval of the Arab Spring. Some of the change protestors hoped for has arrived but much remains the same as before 2011. President Sisi appears to be instilling authoritarian rule once again, but many–including Christians–feel this is necessary to curb Islamist movements from regaining control. Christians still live in a precarious situation regarding religious freedom and persecution. Many Muslims would prefer Egypt did not have such a large Christian population. Pray for a government that serves God’s purposes—to restrain evil, punish crime, and enable peaceful and quiet lives among the citizenry. From Operation World DVD-ROM 2010 and www.operationworld.org
