Our second Outreach in 2023 will be in Zimbabwe, in a location where we have not been since 2018. Since we were last at that location, nine congregations have been planted in the area. We are excited to return and look forward to seeing what fruit the Lord brings from this new Outreach.
Last time, several things drove home the need for serious prayer covering. So, we would love for you to be part of praying over this time. Below are some Prayer Points you can use to pray along with us in preparation for the Outreach and day-by-day prayer items throughout the ministry week. You’ll also find requests for the days immediately following the Outreach.
You can also play a big part in this Outreach by committing to pray during a specific time slot on our Prayer Schedule. SIGN UP HERE to choose a time to pray from home during the Outreach.
Your prayers make such a difference. Here are ways you can pray each day.

Lord, our first trip to this location left a deep impression on us, and since then, we have seen You do wonders there. We press into You in intercession and even spiritual battle, trusting You to do what only You can do. Use us and minister through us. Prepare the way for an even greater move of Your Spirit there and in all Zimbabwe among Your beloved Jewish people, the Lemba, and their neighbors. In Jesus’ name, AMEN.
