Your redemptive hand reaches out to the lost and the least to demonstrate your deep love for humanity. Through your willing servants you step into places of darkness and pain to bring light and healing.
We pray that your Spirit will move mightily upon all those in Europe who are called to preach the gospel, equip believers, plant churches and minister to the needs of the poor. We praise you for the many testimonies of your power at work and commit to pray for your will to be done on earth as it is in heaven. Amen
