Rwanda – Shyogwe Diocese: The Bible and Development School trains lay leaders and catechists, so that they can offer quality leadership and teaching to local Christians. Pray for the ongoing success of the centre, particularly in a climate of reduced financial resources.

CMS Ireland – Volunteers and Enquirers: Pray for all those taking part in short-term teams this year. In 2009, over 100 people will be visiting and working alongside our partners in Burundi, Kenya, Nepal, Romania, Sudan and Uganda. Pray that the preparation and the visits will go well and that God would use these experiences to challenge and inspire team members.
