Mission partners in different areas of Africa report that teaching terms are coming to a close.

In Uganda, Sarah and Simon Cawdell give thanks for training for lay readers trained this term at Archbishop Janani Luwum Theological College in Gulu, Uganda.

Pray for these leaders as they return to their churches equipped with more biblical knowledge, further training in taking services, and some training in mission, church planting, discipleship and other necessities of church life.

Meanwhile Caroline and Dick Seed, mission partners training Bible teachers in theological institutions based at George Whitefield College in South Africa, report that term is coming to a close for their students.

Pray for the students as they return to their families and home churches across the continent to worship and serve, and pray for a good time of rest and reflection for lecturers.
