In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your
partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, being confident of
this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until
the day of Christ Jesus. Philippians
1:4-6 NIV
As CBF Field Personnel
among the Romany people of Europe, our work frequently involves sharing our
faith, sharing the Gospel, and sharing hope in places that are dark with
difficulty. As with any mission
endeavor, however, we are continually surprised and transformed as we work -
because we so often find bright spots of light in those dark places. We meet people in whom God is already
strongly at work, whose faith and energy inspire and encourage us along the
way. We do not work alone: God is already at work ahead of us!
These stories are so
encouraging to us that we have dedicated this year's prayer guide to sharing
them with you. Our prayer for you is
that, as you pray along with us, you'll find encouragement and inspiration as
well - not just from these stories, but right where you are. Where has God placed these kinds of people in
your life? Who inspires and challenges
you? Let's give thanks to God together
for unexpected partners!
