-For him to keep growing in his faith
-For a stable job to support his family
-For him to resist discouragement as he faces family opposition
​-For his business to be blessed

This young man trusted Christ as Savior the month of February 2016 and his life has changed dramatically. Because of the undeniable difference in his life, many of his family members are rejecting him due to his abandonment of the Islamic religion. When I gave him a Bible, he hugged it close to his heart with sincere gratitude. Since then, his wife, Safi, has trusted Christ as her Savior the month of April 2017.

-For his spiritual growth 
-For the salvation of his family
-For a job in education

David was born in a Catholic home and was given the opportunity to teach catechism in the church of Rome. He trusted Christ as his Savior when we presented the complete and eternal sacrifice of Christ for sin. He has since become really faithful to the church meetings, was baptized, and has become a member of the church. David has a burden to see his catholic family come to know Christ as their Savior. He is helping us with teaching the children and is greatly respected by the folks of the church for his humility and maturity.

Bienvenu was born in a muslim home and came to the capital (Ouagadougou) to go to school. While in his residence, he found an invitation to our churches inauguration service last November 2016 and he made a profession of faith on his first time visiting our church. He has been faithfully attending the church meetings (3 times a week) and was baptized the month of March 2017. He is facing some family opposition which is discouraging him. Help us pray for Bienvenu.

-For him to keep growing in his faith
​​-For zeal to witness

Aimer was born in a catholic home but went through the motions of religion until the passing of his mother. Since that family tragedy, he gave up on God and religion. Mr. Bekolo was our neighbor went we met him and invited him to be our guest at a church meeting. After several months of faithful attendance, he trusted Christ as his savior and got baptized. He is faithful to the reading of the Bible and shares the gospel in soul wining efforts and with his friends.
