Prayer Request

Christians in Zimbabwe ask that you pray for these matters:

  • NGO bill: which has gone through Parliament, and now just requires the presidential stamp.

  • The hungry; the NGOs who want to feed but can’t; those who are being persecuted for raising the issue of starvation in the media; pray that the NGO’s will be able to distribute food without fear or favour to those most in need; pray that the world (including within our country) will wake up to the reality of the fact that we have a
    serious food deficit.

  • Zanu PF conference which starts on Wednesday 1 December: that hearts, minds and consciences will be awakened.

  • Cricket: that there will be no violence or wrongful detention in the wake of possible protests at the England vs Zimbabwe cricket matches.

  • Roy Bennett (now moved to Mutoko, some 100kms outside Harare) and his wife and family. Roy was imprisoned for a year by a parliamentary court for pushing the Speaker of the House of Parliament in May.

We value your prayers and the prayers of all those concerned with righteousness, justice and peace.

In Christ,
Christians in Zimbabwe
