Alice served as a global missionary partner (GMP)in the Philippines for two years. Then, she spent time in her home country while applying to serve long-term. Her application was recently accepted to serve people in a country with restricted access to the gospel. Please pray for her as she learns another culture and language. Ask God to expand her heart and help her to embrace her new community. Pray that her visa and entry to the country will not be delayed. Pray for family in her home country, asking that they will gather together and care for her elderly mother in Alice’s absence. Pray for her church, that their nut-growing business will thrive and raise enough money for their share of sending Alice and others to the field. Pray that Alice will find a person of peace (Luke 10:6) in her new community – one who will befriend her and open doors so others can hear the good news of Jesus Christ. As you pray for Alice, ask that God will make her “worthy of His calling and may fulfill every resolve for good and every work of faith by His power” (2 Thessalonians 1:11 ESV).
