Prayer Needs

---

We praise God for His grace, and His divine enablement, which He has faithfully provided to us during  the past 20 plus years of COLOM's existence. We thank God for all the men and  women He has used to stand with us all these years in mission, and pray that their labor of love will not be in vain. Our prayer requests change from day to day and month to month. Below  are the ongoing requests for our work here in Senegal. Thank you for  partnering with us and for praying for these needs:
 

• Pray for Divine Guidance & Direction for the Ministry by the Holy Spirit.
• Pray that our Impact in the Community and Beyond will bring Glory unto the Lord.
• Pray for Safety and Good Health for the Leadership of this Ministry.
• Ask the Lord to raise Covenant Financial & Prayer Partners for this Ministry.
• Ask the Lord for Provision of Finances for not only the Ongoing  Projects, but also the Planned Projects of this Ministry, such as Ker Boroom Bi (KBB).
• Pray for Spiritual Growth & Wisdom for Covenant Elisabeth, Emilie and Diatta.
• Pray for Safety and Good Health for Covenant Elisabeth and Emilie this School Year.
• Ask the Lord to send Volunteers and Short Term Mission Teams to Assist in the Work.
