Country: United States of America
Details: With soccer camps planned from coast to coast this summer, pray the Lord will continue to link churches to their communities to present the gospel to young families. Last summer, over 150 college-aged men and women representing 20 countries took part in these camps and then returned to their colleges and/or countries to continue Bible studies and other ministries. Pray for God’s blessing on all involved and on the details needed to support this ministry here and abroad. Wives and relatives of several of the staff globally are experiencing significant health issues that require visits to hospitals and to specialists. Pray for their staff as they continue to do the work to which God has called them while also serving their families. Pray for direction as they consider ministry in a sensitive southeast Asian country. Cuba (Caribbean). Population: 10,937,204 Believers: 8.8%. Cuba faces a difficult future. Communist Party leaders hold power, but this economic approach cannot last forever. The economy is one of the weakest in the Caribbean, and too few young people remain to support the older generation. Deep poverty led to a successful black market with widespread crime, drugs, and prostitution. The regime imprisoned more than 500,000 for political reasons, and over a million became refugees in the USA. Pray that the Cuban diaspora might find Christ and influence their original homeland. Pray for reasonable reforms, freedom, forgiveness, and for every industry built on sin to be overcome by good. From Operation World DVD-ROM 2010 and www.operationworld.org
