Project Romanian Rescue - licensing and premises

PRR (Project Romanian Rescue) who provide shelter and homes for street children, have asked us to pray for them as they prepare for the new organisational requirement of licensing. This is something that is in addition to accreditation. Please pray that PRR will continue to have favour with the authorities and that they will meet the licensing requirements without any difficulties.

Also, PRR are seeking to rent premises in Constanta in which to run a day centre and offices. Please pray for them as they search for this.

Flooding in Albania - continuing help

Mission Possible in Albania continue to help families in villages in the north west of Albania which have been seriously affected by the recent flooding. Some villages have been flooded several times. One result of this has been that the villagers' water wells were flooded too and the water in them became filthy and unfit for use as drinking and cooking water.

Mission Possible helped deliver emergency supplies of bottled water to those who could not be reached easily. Many villagers had to resort to getting around by boat or by horse.

Please pray for Mission Possible's work with these people, many of whom have suffered damaged homes, lost crops and animals and belongings. Pray that the love of God may be shared with these people as they are given practical help and support.

Russia - need for a new car

Our partner Sergey Obydenniy from the town of Prokhladny in the Kabardino-Balkaria Republic in Russia has told us how their church wants to develop their missionary ministry. This, of course, involves a lot of travelling. The Missionary Committee has a car, but it is 31 years old and frequently breaks down. The church cannot afford to purchase one themselves so they are looking to God for this need.

Please pray for the ministry of the church in Prokhladny as it seeks to reach out to those around them who do not know Christ yet. Please also ask God if He will enable the Missionary Committee to obtain a newer, reliable car to enable them to carry out this work.

Thank you for praying with us for Emanuel Hospice, which obtained the necessary accreditation for its social and medical services in February.

Please continue to pray for the Hospice as Director, Marinela Murg seeks a suitable piece of land on which to extend the Hospice's services to include a day centre.

Please also pray that a doctor may be found who is willing to be involved long-term with the Hospice's work and who can be employed full time.
