RAMADAN:
PRAY for the Fulani in Nigeria. There are possibly more than 30 million Fulani in Africa – 15+ of them live in Nigeria. But, the vast majority do not know the Gospel. ASK for labourers. ASK the Lord to touch Fulani leaders and imams that they may become obedient to the Lord Jesus. PRAY for increased understanding among the followers of Jesus and Muslims in Nigeria. Peacemaking and repairing the decades of strife and civil unrest between Muslims and those who follow Jesus is a major necessity. To see the marvelous things God is doing among the Fulani see www.morethandreams.tv
