Today’s prayer

Earlier this year, 110 mission leaders, pastors and members of mission committees from across South East Asia came together for mission awareness and mobilisation training to establish a clear, unified vision for their mission. Asia-CMS ask for prayer for these leaders to be inspired and committed to actively support and participate in mission work, leading their churches to connect with people who don’t yet know Jesus.

Our prayers are shared daily on our Facebook feed

and on the Prayermate app
