Pray for non-Sri Lankans believers and churches in GTA to become burdened about the lost state of so many thousands of GTA Sri Lankan Sinhalese so that they get into the gospel harvest.

Pray for physical and relational healing after a generation of civil war. There is resurgent tension between Tamil and Sinhalese Sri Lankans especially because of the Easter 2019 bombings in Sri Lanka.

Pray for growth and maturity for the indigenous Sinhalese-background Church in GTA & across Canada.

Ask God to use believers trained in various tools for outreach to Buddhists (e.g., Global Gates Canada’s “Engaging the Nations” booklet, or the “15 Days of Prayer for Buddhists” tool) to find & befriend Sri Lankan Sinhalese Buddhists and share life & the good news of Jesus with them.

Lord, help existing Christians become more aware of Somalis in their community. Help Christians overcome fear, self interest, and negative thoughts toward Somalis.

To our knowledge there is no indigenous Somali church in the GTA. Pray that Somali disciples be made so that a Somali church community appears.

Pray for the 50+ Somali believers living in the GTA that they will be faithful disciples and witness to their extended families & community.

Pray for trusting relationships and friendship between followers of Jesus and Somalis.

Pray for followers of Jesus to open their homes in a ministry of hospitality and safety for Somalis

May these Christians learn to effectively communicate the gospel using existing resources in the Somali language.
