Challenges for Prayer

  1. Pray for the spiritual breakthrough that many Senegal people wait for!

  3. Pray that the Church will hold on to its identity in Christ, and powerfully demonstrate Christ to the nation.

  4. Pray that the God of the Bible will be the source of hope for young people with so much potential!

  5. Pray for God to raise up more ministry to the 30,000 street children in Dakar, and the 400,000 children considered at risk throughout the nation.
