AEM Prayer Update September 2012


September 2012

First of all we thank God for safe, healthy and successful camps and summer activities. Pray that seeds of truth planted over this season will flourish in the months ahead. Pray too that the planned follow-up activities will lead to lasting and fruitful relationships.

Pray too for:

Albania
  • For Steve Neal, now settling in Gjirokastër having attended his last camp as a summer volunteer and begun life as a full-time missionary worker.
  • For the 150 or so campers and staff who had such a blessed time in Ersekë last month. All the campers were blind and many of them are not yet believers. The feedback from all concerned prompts us to thank God for the way in which he is working amongst this group of people.
  • For the young people we have now known and worked with for 5 years or more who will go away to university this year. Pray especially for those who have professed faith and will now be put to something of a test; that they will find fellowship and be encouraged in Tirana and elsewhere.
  • For the resumption of regular services in Ballsh after a summer break.
  • For the work of the Albanian Bible Institute as new courses begin and others resume. Remember particularly that those who commit themselves to study through ABI usually have full-time jobs and fit their studies into evenings and days off. Pray for the board meeting later this month.
  • For Agim who is seriously ill. Agim comes from Delvinë and recently came to faith in his 87th year. A lifelong communist and militant atheist I had the privilege of talking with him as he mustered all his strength to proclaim his new found hope in the Lord Jesus Christ. Pray too for his wife Dudo as she cares for him and for Reni Barjami as he supports them both.
Kosova
  • For the town of Kamenicë and the determined efforts being made to begin a church there. Pray for Hilki and family as they move and begin work there later in the year.
  • For the ongoing work of Tenda Publishing in Prishtina and for a strong and mutually helpful relationship with AEM’s literature ministry in Albania.

Macedonia
  • For Niko and Monda Treska who continue their faithful and sometimes discouraging ministry through regular visits to Skopje. Pray particularly that they will be free of family and health worries.

Tomas & Rosa August 2012 update


Dear brothers received warm greetings from the mission field that the Lord has entrusted to us in Spain. We send a new newsletter. We are trying to short stories and entertaining with the most important news of the day.

We ask for your prayers for the "Missions Month" A missionary evangelistic activity in which we try to reach souls with the gospel and renew our missionary vision. Also for the withdrawal of men and youth activities in September and October, and the Christmas program.

For the salvation of Monica, Richard, Joseph, Cynthia, Anais, Felipe and his family, Jesus and his family, Stephen and his family.

For the work of the new work in Boadilla, especially our son Elisha, who is a missionary sent from our church.

For new and greater economic support, the costs increase and income stays the same. The new challenges of our ministry we need more precarious economy. Costs have risen sharply in Spain and no new taxes.
Thanks in advance,

Tomás y Rosa Gómez
