New Open Doors in Women's Ministry

We are beginning bible study and strongholds teaching to some of the most influential (leaders) women in the nation... MBB (Muslim Background Believer) Elizabeth - the only known woman mbb that is actively doing ministry in all the underground network is attending...

We have also finally finished a survey that we are beginning to utilize as we talk with women. Please pray for this project because this is going to be a huge resource for the women that continue the work among M's when we leave. It will be placed in a database to help specify how to most effectively minister to M women.

We have had several meetings with underground believers and are being blessed by their testimonies of Faith. Please pray for them. Their lives are very difficult. Brother A whom we have met before came and introduced his MBB wife, she is also helping us in the women's work. This is a huge blessing and helps with continued business when we are gone.

We have also had the chance to go to the home of the "Big Fish" whom we refer to now as the one whom is a Imam and studying at the Major Islamic University here. We are continuing to build a bridge with this family and pray that God would quicken their hearts to the Truth of JC.

Clinics & Discipleship

The last couple of days the girls have had some exciting time of meeting with women. They have had the opportunity to serve the Sudanese Refugee's again in clinic; as well as, serve the widows in the community in spiritual discipleship & meeting physcial needs. Two families they met in the clinics are below:
  • We met an Iraqi family that their son was wounded in the war in Iraq. We were able to serve them physcially and share with them about Christ.
  • Another man we met was a Sudanese brother that spent weeks being tortured in the capital of Sudan. It was amazing to serve him and share in his sufferings.
This week we are starting our discipleship class for MBB women and national Christians. We are excited to have this opportunity to serve them through the Word of God and encourage them in reaching their nation for Christ.

Please Pray:
  • For the Iraqi family to heal from their physical wounds, but also to embrace the Truth of JC.
  • For the Sudanese brother that has been tortured, pray God would grant him grace to forgive and heal from all the abuses.
  • Christ would bless the discipleship class and allow His Holy Spirit to teach each of us.
  • The Lord would continue to direct the girl's steps toward Divine Encounters throughout the country.

Happy Father's Day!!!




All the girls would like to say hi to their dads and say they love them and miss them and are so thankful that they display Christ and the love of our heavenly father!

The girls are meeting with contacts the last few days and have had some good opportunities to share and continue building vital relationships with M's. With one group of girls they are meeting with they are beginning to go through the first of 7 prophets with them starting with Adam.

Please Pray:
  • God would continue to fill their mouths with words of life
  • Christ would shine through their relationship building and bring bridges to share the gospel
  • The Lord would continue to open doors and direct steps
  • Each girl would be given a special dose of perseverance and stamina to maintain the pace of ministry and overcome the spiritual oppression in the land
  • Spirit of Revival would sweep across the Middle East into the hearts of M's
  • Underground Believers would be encouraged and given great boldness to share the hope of their calling

As we meet with our M contacts that God will arrange Divine quickening in the hearts of the M's & they will be stirred to ask questions that give opportunity to share the hope of our Faith.

Christ will continue to direct our steps and move us toward Divine Encounters

Underground Believers would be protected as they work with us and that God would allow us to serve them in a significant way
