02
Pray for gospel workers to be sent and for churches to be planted among people groups that are currently unreached.
03
Pray that churches would gain gospel clarity and be led by humble, godly pastors.
04
Pray that healthy church leaders would network together to be an example for others to follow.
05
Pray that Bible schools and seminaries would be marked by students that have genuine conversion, fruit of the Spirit, and desire to follow God’s Word as they engage existing churches and plant new ones.
06
Pray for the provision of sufficient nutrition for children and all citizens of Indonesia.
Unreached people groups live in areas where Christ is unknown and there is little to no local church presence.
Make Jesus known where he’s not yet known.
