Praise God: Bulk Fuel Tank Purchased for Aviation Team in Papua New Guinea

Monday, May 5

We were praying that God would provide the funds for a bulk fuel tank and fuel to fill the tank for the aviation team in Papua New Guinea (PNG). This will allow the pilots to fly their aircraft despite the nationwide fuel shortage. Praise God for His provision. Ethnos360 Aviation shares that “the project is now fully funded. … Because of your faithful giving, we have already placed the order for the tank from a company in Australia. … Please pray for the shipping process and arrival of the tank.” There are always “ongoing needs,” and “the challenge before us is constant,” so pray that God would continue to provide for the PNG flight program.

Pray for Dinangat Bible Teachers Bao and Pol, Papua New Guinea

Tuesday, May 6

Ralf and Ellie Schlegel minister among the Dinangat people of Papua New Guinea. Bible teacher Bao “meets with two couples and some teens to teach them God’s story of salvation.” He is also teaching two believers how to read so they can read God’s Word. Pray that God will continue to enable Bao to teach clearly and that these students will grow in God’s Word. Pray too for Bible teacher Pol as he teaches in different villages. “Pray with us that many there will become God’s children!” Praise God that a group of young people that Pol taught last year “have come to know Jesus as their Saviour and want to show it through baptism.”

Pray for the Next Printing of the Dom New Testament, Papua New Guinea

Wednesday, May 7

Jim and Judy Burdett serve from the USA and minister to the Dom people of Papua New Guinea (PNG). “We are indeed just about ready to reprint the [updated] Dom New Testament. … Fifteen hundred copies will be printed in the Netherlands and then shipped to Papua New Guinea.” The Burdetts hope to travel to PNG and distribute the New Testaments to “Christians and anyone else who may want one.” Praise God that the Dom people can read from His Word, apply it to their lives and grow from it. Pray for the printing and shipping of the New Testaments. Pray for church unity and evangelism outreaches.

Pray for the Burkes as They Serve the Chimane People of Bolivia

Thursday, May 8

Dan and Judy Burke minister among the Chimane people of Bolivia. Pray for them as they consider how to help the Chimane people transition as “at some point most of the Chimane people will lose their language and switch over to Spanish.” They do not want the Chimane people to “abandon all the biblical teaching that has been done in [the Chimane] language” when that time comes, so they are working to create a “bridge between biblical teaching in the native language and the national language.” Pray for clarity and stamina as Judy writes bilingual Bible lessons for the Chimane women. Pray that if it is the Lord’s will, men in the discipleship classes would show interest in a new class combining Chimane and Spanish teaching.

Keep Praying for a Thriving Amdu Church, Papua New Guinea

Friday, May 9

Benjamin and Missy Hatton minister among the Amdu people of Papua New Guinea. The Hattons and co-workers Bart and Emily Allen desire to “see the Amdu church come to maturity.” They challenged the church to “prioritize God’s Word above other influences in their lives.” They began a series of meetings in addition to their weekly meeting, and they are encouraged that “enthusiasm is high.” Praise God for the group who has made these meetings a priority. Pray that they will learn and grow through this study. Pray for three men and two women in the church who are being trained and discipled to serve “in selfless ministry to the Body of Christ.”
