The James Family
Kep & Debbie January 2023 Prayer Requests
1. Pray for the Lord’s guidance as we prepare to lead ESI (Equipping Servants – Disciples Making Disciples) training retreats in Zambia and Burundi in April. Pray for these pastors and church as they prepare for the 4-day training retreats by studying Romans 1-3.
2. Pray for the church planters we have trained with a ministry currently doing evangelism in Muslim communities in North and West Africa and the Middle East.
3. Pray for the 1,825 ESI participants in 168 groups meeting in 16 countries, with 2730 total graduates since beginning in 2002. Pray that these men and women will grow in their love for God and their commitment to honor Christ by being true to His Scriptures keeping Jesus and His Gospel at the center.
4. Praise for the Kenyan pastors and church leaders we trained in September who are preparing to begin ESI groups in January in Nairobi and Mombasa.
5. Pray for the church in Bolivia that believers will be true to Christ in their daily lives. Pray for the ILC Church leadership in La Paz to be passionate about Jesus as they experience gospel transformation in their own lives first as they lead the church.
