URGENT

Urgent comes alongside indigenous believers in some of the hardest to reach places on earth. There, we seek to make disciples, multiply churches and provide humanitarian relief in ways that are biblically faithful and practically effective.

How to Pray

Pray that many Thai people would see the emptiness of Buddhism and repent and believe in Jesus. Pray for the spread of the gospel in Thailand and for open hearts among the Thai people to receive the message of salvation.

Pray for the growth and maturity of the Thai church, that believers would be rooted in God's Word and actively involved in sharing their faith.

Pray that God would remove unjust leaders and overturn unjust laws in Thailand. Ask him to bring about peace for the sake of all citizens and for the good of the church.

Pray for the development of Thai Christian leaders who are equipped to lead, disciple, and shepherd their congregations effectively.

Pray for wisdom, discernment, and cultural sensitivity for missionaries and organizations working in Thailand, that they may effectively navigate the challenges and opportunities of the Thai context.

Pray that the church would minister to those who are in prison and to those who are suicidal. Ask God to use believers to bear witness to the hope of the gospel.
