FOCUS Prayer Page - 1 (2008)

“The great masters and teachers in Christian doctrine have always found in prayer their highest source of illumination…it is recorded of Bishop Andrews that he spent five hours daily on his knees. The greatest practical resolves that have enriched and beautified human life in Christian times have been arrived at in Prayer.” – Henry P.Liddor.

New beginnings give us the opportunity to start all over again, to do better at things that we did not give our best to previously.

New beginnings give us hope and remind us of God’s faithfulness and His mercies. Lam.3:23.

Make time this year in joining us to pray for the FOCUS Ministry.

Pray that:

  1. God will give wisdom and discernment to the board, General Secretary and staff on what direction the Ministry should take this year and in the years to come.
  2. For wisdom upon the staff on how to be relevant to students and graduates and how together we can respond to the various issues in our society.
  3. For safe and speedy arrival of a container of books from Mombasa.
  4. For a long term solution to the political situation in Kenya. Several FOCUS students, staff and graduates have been affected by the violence or displaced. One staff in Eldoret had her house and belongings burned to the ground, and is currently taking refuge in a Catholic Cathedral.

Give Thanks for:

  1. 2 (two) Volunteer staff who have joined us in the Communications Department; Peninah and Loice and another 2 (two) in the Training Department; Andrew and Peter.
  2. Associates in the diaspora who raised over 2 (two) million shillings (USD 1,180) during the Christmas break towards staff salaries.

HAVE A BLESSED NEW YEAR!!
