As we begin the new year, perhaps you are wondering how you can pray for the world and Covenant missionaries in 2013. We have several resources that might be helpful to you.
Covenant Missionary Prayer Calendar – This is a convenient daily guide to pray for Covenant missionaries and the countries in which they serve. Each day includes information on Covenant missionaries, as well as where and how they serve. The new edition is released every year at the Annual Meeting in June, but is available for ordering throughout the year. The prayer calendar can be ordered from the Covenant Online Bookstore.
Praying for Missionaries Bookmark – Find out how you can pray for missionaries,their families, and their daily needs, which is one way you can partner and participate in their ministries. All missionaries desire to be in the center of God’s will for their lives, to carry out an effective ministry, to relate well to people from the adopted culture, to care for family and fellow missionaries, and to remain healthy – bot physically and emotionally. You can download this bookmark from the Covenant website or order copies at the Covenant Online Bookstore.

We praise God for the 75 kids (ages 4-12) who participated in the Family Foundation’s (FUNDEFAM’s) 4th annual VBS! This year’s theme was “Aventura en la Gran Ciudad” (Adventure in the Big City) and the main verse for the week was from Romans 10:17, “Faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ”.
During the month of June, it was my privilege to lead a weekly Bible study for thirty-five women at the Cuautitlán Izcalli Covenant Church. Theme: Transformed by the Word
