In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one. Ephesians 6:16

Praise the God of relationship, who desires to connect with us. Pray that leaders will make good use of retreat planning resources as they create meaningful opportunities for spiritual connection, encouragement, and renewal with the Lord and with one another.

Praise God for the four non-believers joining an online CBS class in Japan. Please pray that the Lord will continue to draw them to Himself and that He will bring other non-believers to join these classes.

Please pray that the Lord will soften hearts in Czechia and give people in the community a desire to study His Word. Praise Him for the new groups that have recently launched.

Please pray for God’s favor and blessing as people attend the Regional Servants Team meeting in August in an unspecified country within the South Asia Region. Pray that the experience will be fruitful, fostering growth, understanding, and unity among all the leaders.

Please pray for spiritual growth and numerical growth in the current classes in Uruguay. May more people come to know Christ in a country where many have not yet heard or embraced the Gospel.

Please pray that God grants wisdom to the Children & Youth teachers in a sensitive location within the Sub-Saharan Africa Region. Pray they effectively communicate the Gospel to the children in a way that they can understand and come to know and love Jesus.

Please pray for the Spirit of the Lord to be with CBS leaders and participants around the world who are not free to openly follow Jesus. Pray that they will be empowered by the Lord to stand in the face of opposition and hold fast to the hope of their eternal reward in Christ Jesus.
