PRAYER MONTHLY ‘Devote yourselves Devote yourselves to to prayer, being watchful prayer, being watchful and thankful’ and thankful Colossians 4:2
POINTS FOR PRAYER NIGERIA PAMELA, MUSA & GRACIE GAIYA Throughout all the busyness of October, the Gaiya family were grateful to God for daily health and strength. November looks to be just as busy so please keep praying for them. Musa is in the thick of his teaching schedule along with all the meetings that go with his church responsibilities. For Pamela there have been sensitive issues addressed recently at ACTS so pray the Management team will continue to know God’s wisdom and guidance. Gracie’s class (Grade 8) has their Pancake Breakfast on Saturday 18th; sadly it is overshadowed this year with the recent passing of the father of one of Gracie’s classmates (Sapphire). Pray for the Lord’s comfort and peace.
SAMANTHA, GODFREY, HEPHZIBAH & MELKI IBIA Thank God for seeing us through October as Godfrey was away for most of the month.

We have had a few favourable responses but pray God will guide us to to right schools
