JANUARY Prayer Focus – AGAPE MINISTRY OVERVIEW

Challenges
Agape has impacted over 1 million people with the love of God in Russia since its beginning in 1993 through four areas of ministry: The Agape Medical Center in Moscow and its outreach to migrants and the homeless; Telemedicine and remote medical expeditions, chiefly to Siberia; Medical Education, a tool to share Christ with medical professionals; the Agape Farm with its outreach and Live & Learn programs for aged-out orphans. Agape's hands-on ministry has not been accomplished in a vacuum. It has been birthed in an atmosphere of prayer, faith, and obedient action on the part of Agape’s staff and people like you who have come alongside us as we presented our requests and thanksgivings to God.

In recent months, our staff have faced health issues, personally and with our families, and government shutdowns both in the U.S. and in Russia have curtailed every area of our ministry. Our adversary the devil has taken every opportunity during this pandemic to steal, kill, and destroy (John 10:10), as within any ministry doing God’s work, to bring to a stop and to derail the mission God has entrusted to us.

Prayer Needs

• Give thanks for protection of Agape's staff and their families as they continue the work of ministry despite dealing with health challenges.
• Give thanks for those who have given sacrificially in support of Agape’s ministry and for those who have served with us in past years.
• For Agape’s actions and decisions at every level and in every area of ministry to be Spirit-led.
• For an increase of our donor base and for financial blessings. We need faithful monthly donors. Pray that our regular donors will invite their friends to join us.

Other Prayer Concerns

• Pray for LABORERS who will “send” Russian teams who have the passion to go on an outreach but not the funds.
• Give thanks for God’s favor in those places where doors have opened for Agape to proclaim the Good News.​
