Praise: Join us in thanking God for leaders like Corneille Gato Munyamasoko, recipient of the 2015 BWA Congress Quinquennial Human Rights Award.

Pray for the Lord's provision and the opportunity for churches to be a source of practical help and eternal hope.

Pray for Ukrainian Refugees and Internally Displaced Persons After Russia's invasion of Ukraine, more than 12 million Ukrainians were forced to flee their homes. Pascal and Maria Lahoud were just one of the many impacted, but they are also just one example of how the global Baptist family is responding together. Click to watch their story. While we give thanks for how Baptists have made an impact, the effects of the war continue to be far-reaching. Millions of refugees and internally displaced persons still need support as they try and rebuild their lives. Would you join us in praying for the Lord's peace and provision for the many in need?

God at Work Around the World We continue to give thanks for all the Lord did through our time together at the 2022 BWA Annual Gathering and over the course of the last year. It was an honor to speak before the General Council and share how the global Baptist family is living out God's global mission. To view my full report which includes a dedicated prayer time for the many who continue to be impacted by COVID-19 as well as intercession for the people of Ukraine and Myanmar, click here.

A Prayer for Transformation  Barriers, walls, and barbed wire mark the frontiers, O Lord. Help us to transform them into places where we can meet, with sincerity, as countries and as persons, so that the world will know that we are Christians by the love with which our actions are marked.
