Africa: Ebola

25 June 2026

Please keep the Ebola outbreak in your prayers. As of 22 June, DR Congo has confirmed more than 1,000 cases and 20 cases have been counted in Uganda. Pray that everyone who needs medical assistance will be able to access it, and lift up people living in fear and families who are grieving the loss of loved ones. There is a chance to “connect and pray” for Africa on Saturday 27 June at 11am. We will be joined by mission partner Nicci Maxwell, giving a perspective from South Sudan.
