Challenges for Prayer

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.
The inflow of immigrants – most are illegal and from Haiti. They are poised to outnumber natives, or “Belongers”. Pray that believers might meet these newcomers with biblical love and share with them the gospel.
     For an additional Challenge for Prayer see Operation World book, CD-ROM, or DVD-ROM.
