Challenge for Prayer

The Christian Church has become very nominal, lacking in vitality and vision. The Moravians had a glorious past, but they and all churches need revival. The Catholic Church increases through immigration of Puerto Ricans and through charismatic renewal. Some evangelical groups have grown; the great need is revival.

Challenge for Prayer

More Wallisian and Futunans live in New Caledonia than live in their own home islands. Seeking work, many find themselves caught in a spiral of substance abuse instead. Pray for those in New Caledonia to find freedom in Christ and to, in turn, bring blessing back to their homeland.
