Day #2 - MOZAMBIQUE
This war-torn country has only recently begun its recovery from a long and brutal civil war. As such, their need is great - and their need for a Savior is even greater. The children of Mozambique are still hurting. Land mines are still littered throughout much of the countryside, and other dangers such as AIDS and malnutrition also threaten the youngest Mozambicans.
Just a few weeks ago, we were able to break ground on our first facility in Mozambique - a joint project with Mission of Mercy, Healing Place Church and The Family Church. Pray that this new facility (a church and a children’s center) will not only be a center of hope for the children but also for the entire community. Also pray that other churches in the USA will partner with Children’s Cup to reproduce this type of project many more times.
Today we have asked Dino Rizzo, Lead Pastor of Healing Place Church to lead us in prayer in this online prayer gathering.
There are times when you visit a place on God's earth where you just know that God's faithfulness is the only answer for the need. Mozambique is such a place. Let's pray for Mozambique:
- Lord, I know what You want for the people of Mozambique - to love, to care for and to save them. I pray that they find all they search for in You. Let Children's Cup and its partners have Your wisdom to help bring the breath of God to that nation. Let Jesus sweep across every effort, plan, idea and ministry action. Thank You, Jesus, that You have not forgotten a people that have often felt forgotten. Jesus, save Mozambique - all for You.
