BLESSINGS IN BUHERA!

June 28, 2017
Prayer Points

We have seen the Lord do amazing things in answer to your prayers, and now we are asking you to join us in praying for blessings in Buhera. This region in Zimbabwe lacks so much – such as clean water, employment, and good medical assistance. As we bring medical and dental care to a new location within the Buhera district of Zimbabwe, we will also share the biggest blessing of all – the love and Good News of Yeshua (Jesus) – with both the Jewish people and their neighbors there.. 

This will be the largest-ever Medical Outreach team we’ve taken to Zimbabwe. Please help us cover them, and every aspect of the trip, with around-the-clock prayer. Choose your own prayer time slot on our calendar. Here are detailed prayer points so you can pray with insight into our day-to-day needs.  

You are a blessing as are your prayers. Together we will soon praise the Lord for the blessings He will pour out on Buhera!
