(pah-LAH-wahn) – Baptist representatives write: “Pray that God will raise up a healthy local church in each of the eight barangays (administrative divisions) that currently have no gospel presence on Araceli Island. Pray that families in these areas will accept Jesus as their Lord and Savior, and that they will become founding members of new churches. Ask for God’s protection and guidance for our research team as we visit and minister on Araceli in June and July.”
