Esther and Sarah are local believers in Urban Rose. They started an organization to assist the poor women of their megacity. The group of women they serve receive a distribution of food for themselves and their families. Every week, Esther and Sarah meet with the women to train them in job skills. They also visit the women in their homes and share truth with them. Most of the women follow the Orthodox religion. This month, all Orthodox will begin a 55-day fast leading up to Easter. During Holy Week (the week before Easter), the faithful will attend church daily. Many Orthodox women do not feel worthy to enter the church or even the courtyard of the church. They will stand outside the gates, spending hours in the sun bowing toward the church building. Esther and Sarah will meet with the women right before Easter for food distribution and a time of sharing stories from the Scriptures. Please ask God to open hearts and minds to the good news. Pray for the women who are fasting to turn to the Savior who alone can make them clean and give them full access to His presence.
