"Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid."
~John 14:27

Thank you for praying for change this month, and having prayed together may it prompt us to continue to do more.

COVID-19


COVID-19 continues to impact the health and safety of millions around the world, the stability of economies, and the ability to help to reach the most vulnerable. Join us in thanking God for the governments that are taking action to prevent the spread and to protect and provide for their people during this difficult time. May the leaders be blessed with wisdom and understanding. Please also pray for those most susceptible to this virus, that they may be kept safe from illness and their needs provided for. Please pray for those who are fighting the virus, both health care professionals and patients. May they each be blessed with strength and the needed resources to successfully fight the virus. Let us also remember those who have lost loved ones to this virus. May God draw near to them and comfort them with His presence and His peace. Let us also pray for those living isolation, which can lead to loneliness. May they be remembered by friends, family, neighbours, and church family. May they personally experience God and the comfort and company that He brings. Please also pray for those who are struggling with anxiety, depression, frustration, and anger. May God’s Spirit bring them calm, peace, comfort, and even cheer as they wait through this difficult time. Finally, please pray for those whose livelihoods and homes have been placed in jeopardy by these exceptional times. May God bring them peace as they wait for His provision of their needs.

Disasters


Though much of normal life seems to have come to a standstill for many us, the tragedy is that disasters are still continuing throughout the world. Please join us in praying for those who continue to be affected by famines, earthquakes, cyclones, and wars. ADRA’s annual Disaster and Famine Relief Offering is coming soon, in which ADRA seeks support for its efforts to respond to the many disasters in the world. Please join us in praying for this offering, that the kindness and generosity of our supporters will enable ADRA’s work of reaching those most in need to continue.

Praise for the Democratic Republic of the Congo


We have been praying for months for the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Please join us in praising God that the outbreak has finally come to an end! Our hearts are lifted by this good news. Let us remember to praise God for His goodness and His loving watch-care, even during the midst of suffering. Please pray for those who have been impacted by this outbreak, whether by loss of loved ones or livelihoods. As they begin life anew, may their hearts be comforted and strengthened and may their many needs be met.

Praise for Australia


Australia has been battling bush fires across the country for several months. Let us praise God together that all the fires are now either contained or extinguished! It has been a long and costly fight. We are so grateful to God for the strength and help He’s given to bring an end to this crisis. Please join us in praying for those who are in the process of cleaning up, recovering, and rebuilding their lives. May their many needs be fulfilled, from physical resources to mental and spiritual strength and comfort as they face the challenges ahead.  

Cyclone Harold


Cyclone Harold has devastated the South Pacific island nations of Fiji, Vanuatu, and Tonga. The storm has claimed lives, homes, infrastructure, and livelihoods. Please pray for the families and communities affected by this storm. Please also pray for those responding to the many immediate needs of those who have lost so much. May they be blessed with the resources and the ability to deliver help in a timely and effective manner.

Generosity


ADRA is praising God especially for the astounding outpouring of generosity from our supporters. Even though times are uncertain and unstable for so many, your support has either been maintained or even increased. We are so encouraged by and grateful for your kindness! Because of you, we will be able to continue to bring life-saving help to those who have so much less than us. We earnestly pray that God blesses you and yours abundantly with health, peace, joy, and that all your needs are met by His faithful hand.
