Our partnership with AGCI (All God’s Children International) included Mike leading a mission team in Ethiopia for the last half of July. He went straight from there to Rwanda and was able to work on some details of the ministry during the last week, and now he is preparing to welcome a different AGCI team coming to visit and work in Rwanda. AGCI sent out an email asking for prayer for the team, and I would like to share it with you so you can be praying for Mike & this team as well.

Trip Dates: August 3-13, 2012

An Embrace Missions team is heading to Rwanda this Friday to help put together an after-school reading program and spend time with the kids in our partner homes.

Join us as we pray for the upcoming mission team as they go to serve orphans and vulnerable children at Rwanda.

Pray for Traveling Mercies. Pray all the donations and project supplies get from the US to Rwanda without extra charges or hassle. Pray for the team’s quick recovery from jet lag as they arrive in Rwanda.

Pray for Trip Leadership. Pray for the Trip Leaders to have wisdom as they help organize and lead the team to serve the children.

Pray for the Team. Pray for unity, flexibility, a servant’s heart. Pray for health, safety and protection as they work in Rwanda. Pray for changed lives and hearts and continued passion to serve children in Rwanda.

Pray for Outreach. Pray that the team would be able to effectively minister to all of the children living at Home of Innocence and Noel Orphanage, as well as the communities they serve in during the week. Pray for great communication, for relationship building, and for friendships.

Pray for our Rwanda Partnerships.

1. Noel Orphanage: Continue to pray for the transition many children are making back to their biological families. Pray that the team would make each child feel loved and valued.
2. Home of Innocence: Pray the time together will glorify God and the boys will experience the love of God through the team.
3. Ghanga Orphanage: Pray that the staff would feel encouraged by the team and would feel refreshed from the long, hard hours they put into caring for the children each day.
4. Pray for doors to continue opening to help many more children and families at risk in Rwanda.
