Please pray for me. I really need it. I've been going through some very scary and serious spiritual warfare. Pray for my protection and God's victory over everything coming against me.

Thank you for praying for my nephew! He is recovering well from his surgeries and the oncologist said that they got all the cancerous cells with good margins! He will continue getting scans every 3 months to monitor him. He has had a couple of infections with healing, but has been doing well. There is a chance this type of cancer can return in another spot, but at this point, he is cancer free! If you are able to continue praying for his recovery, we would be so grateful!

Thank God close to $40,000 out of the $67,000 needed has come in by kind donors and supporters. We are slowly paying off the missionaries and still no timeline on the Canada Summer Jobs Grants we were approved for.
Since we have not been officially denied, we are still believing they will eventually get released.
In the mean time, it is time to shift focus to the school ministry (Discovery Time). Orientation training begins first week of October for all the volunteer teachers in the public schools that run DT. Pray for the training, pray for the coordinators and teachers that are stepping down and pray for every gap to get filled quickly before Orientation begins. Pray that CEF will be able to secure the funding for the resources for the school program ($4,000) and finally thank God that we (Manitoba) can still legally have Religious Instruction in schools.
This is an opportunity that should not go untapped. Pray that CEF will continue to pioneer new schools every year as we work with new principals, parents and teachers. Let there be an increase in school ministry this year - in the mighty name of Jesus - AMEN and AMEN and AMEN!

Pray for our Celebration Event this evening, where we can truly celebrate how God has sustained the mission and the missionaries all summer.
We can celebrate in one club on a reserve, Dakota Tipi Reserve - all 10 kids who came out, asked Christ into their lives as their Lord and Saviour and 4 got baptized. Glory to God!
Pray specifically for our Canada Summer Jobs Program Officer - Christopher Strain and his supervisor Michael, who have chosen to be non-responsive throughout the summer and whether there is some religious bias or not, has played an integral part in how our summer has played out. Pray for them for however God intends to show them His glory.
Finally, pray for our letters of appeal to partners, churches and supporters, 800+ appeal letters have been mailed out or handed out, asking God's people to rise to this challenge. $67,000 will need to come in by the end of August to be able to fully cover the rest of our summer expenses. God is more than able to do far more than we anticipate so pray that God will stir many hearts to give or act as advocates for this worthy cause of bringing the Gospel to so many communities that have now been reached this summer.
God has not brought us this far to leave us now.

Please pray for CEF Manitoba - We are well past the middle of our amazing summer ministries, with 27 student missionaries hired in Manitoba travelling all across Manitoba sharing the good news of Christ with hundreds of kids for 8 weeks. We were approved for 40 Canada Summer Jobs grants which helps our summer program and helps us hire this many workers - however this summer we were informed that due to a random monitoring process none of the already approved funding will be released. We have already trained and equipped our students and ministry is on-going nevertheless.
Thank God that enough churches and faithful donors stepped up so that we could pay all the students in the month of July despite not getting any grant funding released.
Praying for wisdom as we navigate the month of August. (Waiting on the Lord as He renews our strength to keep on fighting the good fight)

Amanda Hogue
Hello church family,
I am asking for your prayers as I prepare for an upcoming surgery this coming Tuesday, the 14th. Barring any emergency surgery that my surgeon may have to do, then my surgery may be bumped. But if all goes well my surgery time is 7:45 a.m.
It is going to be a more permanent repair (God willing) to my ongoing problem of a ventral hernia.
I have had 2 emergency surgeries in the past that repaired it but not to the extent of what this surgeon will be doing.
I am asking for God's wisdom and guidance for the Surgeon, Dr. Hampton and her surgical team.
And for myself that my body would have the strength for a swift recovery and no complications. I understand it will be a long surgery and the recovery time may be long, but I am completely in the hands of our loving heavenly Father.
