Challenge for Prayer
Remarkable growth among cults (especially Mormons) exposes the nominalism, too-long entrenched, in the mainline churches. Pray for awakening and renewal in these rapidly declining churches.For an additional 2 Challenges for Prayer see Operation World book, CD-ROM, or DVD-ROM.

Challenge for Prayer
Biblical Christianity struggles to retain a foothold. Catholicism has lost much of its zeal, and the handful of other congregations where evangelicals worship grow very slowly. Praise God for committed expatriate believers and for the few indigenous Andorran believers. Pray that all faithful disciples of Christ might have the passion and discernment that will enable them to effectively share their faith.For an additional 2 Challenges for Prayer see Operation World book, CD-ROM, or DVD-ROM.
