Prayer Requests from Kompong Tralach

These are prayer requests from our partners in Kompong Tralach, together with issues and situations known to us as a result of St Andrew's members visiting Cambodia.

• There are a variety of small but growing churches in the project area. Please pray for new Christians who often face ostracism from their family and community.
• A new initiative supported by the Churches in Partnership Programme has seen the formation of 'development groups' for some of the very poorest families. These groups have been given piglets which are reared and then sold to provide income for the families. Pray that the groups will be successful in helping the group members improve their quality fo life.
• Project staff regularly come across cases of child abuse in their work in the community. Pray that staff will have wisdom to know how best to help the children affected and that abusing chidlren will be come increasingly unacceptable.
• Kompong Tralach is located in one of the poorest parts of Cambodia. Staff are very keen to reach out to more communities in the area. Pray that they will have wisdom about priorities and the resources they need to do their work.
• Staff of World Vision in the UK manage the Churches in Partnership Scheme through the various churches within the UK. Pray for a continual flow of information updating us on the work which is being done in Kompong Tralach through the various fund raising efforts taking place.
• Staff of World Vision in Cambodia administer the distribution of funds in Kompong Tralach. Pray for the ongoing training of Church Leaders enabling them to effectively minister to their congregations that many will grow in faith and learn of constant grace and love shared by all who follow our Lord Jesus Christ.
• Pray for the Pastors meeting in House Churches throughout the Province bringing the word of our Lord to many.
• Pray for the ADPs (Area Development Programme) working throughout the Kompong Tralach Province helping families earn an income through the raising of pigs and chickens, improving health provision and enabling children to attend school.
• Pray that through the work of World Vision the basic needs of children from most vulnerable households will be met.
• Pray for the Child Sponsorship Scheme that many of us are part of. Pray for the children who we support and their families and through that partnership, have become part of our family here at St. Andrews.
