LET’S PRAY… for the kids of Ethiopia, especially the 40,000 street kids of Addis Ababa. that new churches will be started among the many people groups who have never heard the gospel. for Christians who have left the Orthodox church or the Muslim faith. Sometimes their families throw them out. Pray they will stay strong and faithful to Jesus. for missionaries from Ethiopia to other nations—and that God will send more. for the kids of Ethiopia, especially the 40,000 street kids of Addis Ababa. that new churches will be started among the many people groups who have never heard the gospel. for Christians who have left the Orthodox church or the Muslim faith.
