LET’S PRAY… • for the kids of Ethiopia, especially the 40,000 street kids of Addis Ababa. • that new churches will be started among the many people groups who have never heard the gospel. • for Christians who have left the Orthodox church or the Muslim faith. Sometimes their families throw them out. Pray they will stay strong and faithful to Jesus. • for missionaries from Ethiopia to other nations—and that God will send more.
