Mountain People of the Horn of Africa

Ezra spends each day sitting on the side of the road, begging. He cannot find work because he has no legs. Recently, some believers were moving from their home and had some extra belongings that they no longer needed. Several people asked for many of those belongings, but the only thing that Ezra asked for was a used mattress so that he could sit more comfortably on the ground. Ezra has trusted in Jesus, but opportunities for discipleship have been difficult. Please pray for God to meet all of Ezra’s spiritual and physical needs. Pray that the body of believers in his city will be creative in discipling him and that he will have opportunities to work and develop skills that don’t require the use of his legs. Ask that he will be able to share truth and hope with those in similar situations. Pray that Ezra and people like him who feel forgotten and helpless will know that there is a loving Father who sees them and desires for them to know Him.
