There are special areas of prayer for several areas, people and places that could use your prayers worldwide. YOUR PRAYERS ARE EFFECTIVE!
"Jas 5:16-18 … The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much. Elijah was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months. And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit." NKJV
Pakistan: The people of Pakistan will feel the effects of the flooding more months. This country and people will have been hit hard by the loss of life, homes and shelters, crops and their way of life. It has been said that the disaster in Pakistan is greater than most of the disasters for this year, including the earthquake in Haiti, all put together. With all these things going, then there is the persecution of the Christians and the withholding aid for them on top of all this.
Haiti: Although the earthquake was so many months ago, there is so much that still has yet to be done. There were three groups that went down to the Southwest part of Haiti this year associated with Youth Quests and there has been success in starting the sustainable agricultural projects, improving a couple of homes and ministering to, evangelizing and showing the Jesus Film to many people within the village and surrounding areas. There are also mission trips to Haiti planned for two areas of Haiti for 2011. Contact us for more information if you are interested.
Peru: There was an earthquake in Peru south of Lima that woke up a missionary in Piura, several hundred miles away in the northern part of Peru. The epicenter was near the city Chincha which lost all phone and cell phone communication to the whole city among other things. Youth Quests has a missions trip to Peru this summer in Piura and much was accomplished through Jesus Christ working through us. Youth Quests is currently planning to return to Peru for a medical missions trip in January of 2011 and then another work/evangelism missions trip for the summer of 2011.
Africa: This year Youth Quests has donated to help with feeding the hungry and ministry outreaches to a ministry in northwestern Kenya. We would love to continue help with the less fortunate and ministry outreaches in this area. Also, it is our desire to take a Kenya missions trip team there this coming summer of 2011 to help out with these efforts. Please pray for these requests for Kenya.
Please pray for these several areas and requests, as well as, the several other areas of outreach and missions that Youth Quests is working with. This is your chance to be a partner with us in these successful outreaches and the vision to touch many lives for the gospel of Christ. Contact us for more information at Youth Quests International.
