Prayer for the trip--Christian Ruch

This is Christian writing. There are obviously many ways people can be praying for us on this trip, but one way in particular that I would ask you to pray is for spiritual protection. One big goal that we have for this trip is that we would build long lasting partnerships with churches and people in Kenya (that's why we're calling it Pamoja, which means 'togetherness'). But we know that when we work for unity in the church, it results in spiritual attack. We have an enemy who hates unity and hates the church and wants to bring division in the Body of Christ. So please pray for our protection and our unity as a team as we seek to build strong relationships with our brothers and sisters in Kenya.

  1. My prayer for the team comes from Ephesians 3 & 4 " I pray that out of His glorious riches He (God) may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ...that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God" Therefore be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit - just as you were called to one hope - one Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God and Father of all, who is over all. Then you will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into Him who is the Head, that is Christ. From Him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.
