World Mission Prayer League
Weekly Prayer Focus
Week of July 19
July 19 Pray for: Teachers O God, call and equip many to be teachers of your word to the ends of the earth. And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others. 2 Timothy 2:2
Happy Summer! We are in that wonderful time of year known in the church calendar as...Ordinary Time! That always makes me smile. I hope you are having a wonderful, ordinary, summer with Vacation Bible School, summer camps and worship times that accommodate the dog days of summer.
Before I introduce our slides, I wanted to be sure and point out that you are now receiving these slides and emails from prayerleague.org. Because the headquarters of Prayer League are in Minnesota, I feel I can use the phrase "formerly known as" World Mission Prayer League with complete confidence that you will understand that Prayer League is the same organization as World Mission Prayer League.
This month we have created a slew of slides that we hope can be used to encourage prayer in a variety of ways. The UPG focus is the Ralli people in Central Asia, but that is a pseudonym we use for the Meghwar. Technically, this is not a people group, but more like a caste. Our global workers Darius and Jaycee have been praying for inroads to working with them.
Summer Sister's Bible Study

SUMMER BIBLE STUDY Ladies, you are invited to Summer Sisters, a weekly Bible Discussion and Fellowship group that will meet Thursday evenings June 4-August 6 here at FELC.
