An answer to “The Crisis”
We have many people in Spain who have been out of work for over a year. Unemployment is at its highest. The social government has wasted and spent more money causing the country to go down with bankruptcy, many factories and companies have closed their doors leaving many people out of work; Many have lost their homes and everything they have worked for years. It is sad to see what is happening to this country… WHAT CAN WE DO? One of our churches have found an answer: our church in Toledo… an answer to The Crisis!!! A SOUP KITCHEN … the government has given this church a building and they will be opening a soup kitchen this month
Pray for our Pastors in Spain
Pray for Gary & Kathy:

Pray for Italy Jeff & Miranda Weaver
Pray for France
Here things were really, really difficult and stretching these last six months. The enemy tried to hit us on all parts. We have literally “hibernate” cuddle up together in the very close presence of the Lord in the storm. But we nevertheless had the force to do what recommends the Apostle Jacques, we withstood the enemy with a strong faith and we’ve noticed that he finished leaving slowly but surely the place and we feel the pressure is diminishing. The Lord brought us through all the health, job, finances, family tests and trails, which we had to overcome successively. The Lord gave us colossal victories through prayers and our hearts overflow with gratitude for the care that He takes of His people.
Thank-you to pray so that Valerie can receive a job with a good salary in which she actually will be able to blossom (one of the two handicapped children of which she cares will leave the school in May, therefore we don’t know if her work will be maintained in the school of Malissard).
Thank-you to pray for Claude (mason) who has health problems and need a new job closer to his house, corresponding better with the family schedules and less exposed physically.
Thank-you to pray for Delphine, who just got born again (divorced mom with three boys raising them alone, after hard battle through her family situation). She just obtained a miraculous new "social" housing. She began to study to sit a competitive examination in the National Education. May the Lord give her favours for a new job, well paid and peace in her family circumstances.
Pray for our Nation that the will of God supplant the will of the wicked ones.
With much love from here – Pr Babeth Chorel – Eglise Siloe

Pray for Portugal Tony and Patti Guasco
Well, support raising is going well on paper. In the churches we are well received, in fact we have already raised all of our support, but it is just not coming in. That's the good and the bad. We also need a 15,000 -20,000 in our account because we are at or close to zero and therefore once we buy tickets and rent with deposit for a month we'll be deeply in the red again. We are asking for someone to come and help us in Portugal. When we have to leave the work for furloughs it suffers. Tony
Just got this news: Please pray for Tony... His father just passed away...
Pray for Germany: Pastors Peter Kressin and family

Pray for Amsterdam Matt and Femke Helland
Pray for Rob and Michelle Crigger in the UK
Praise reports: The move to Bristol, England has been a smooth one. Some adjustments still for the kids to make but on the whole, really feel the favor of the Lord here. We have already met several new families and been able to share the Lord with them. Rob has been asked to be a steward at John Wesley's Chapel. Also upcoming opportunity to play on an American baseball team with the goal of building relationships.
Prayer request: For favor and opportunities to share Jesus with our unsaved neighbors. For Samuel to heal quickly. He had an operation on his ears and adenoids on April 2nd.
Blessings, Rob and Michelle Crigger
Pray for Brussels, Belgium
Mauricio and Lulu
Here are some prayer requests:
In our work in Brussels we have been experiencing a severe attack of the enemy upon members, church and even family all together at the same time. I think that we are getting close to some victory, but still the battle had been very hard. We have lost some members of the church and not even for a clear reason, they just "felt lead to leave" others have stayed but have a troubled heart and tension is clear in between the relationship of the members. One even said that the people left because all the preaching in Logos is done in the flesh and when I asked who's preaching he implied everyone that even has come through to preach. Another one said that in the church there is only spiritual manipulation. So as you see, we are needing serious prayer in order to get the enemies' plans our of our church, members homes, our family, church finances, etc. It's evident to me that the enemy is in serious work.
We don't forget that we are more than conquerors but still it is written pray without ceasing.
Pray for the members to be established firmly in their faith and in the church and that all wounds may be healed.
Pray for the ones still in the church but doubting, if they are leaving, then may they do so.
Pray for the new converts because 4 of them have noticed and are very troubled.
Pray for the homes, so that only edifying conversations go on.
Pray for me and my family so that the enemy doesn't gain advantage over us and destabilize our home, finances, focus and relationships through his attacks.
Pray for the finances of the church that evidently are suffering.
Thank you and blessings:
