MINISTRY PARTNER of the WEEK
Rasem & Naheda (Navigators)
Read more online in our Outreach magazine, p15.
Naheda and I have been ministering the Kingdom of God for 33 years, in Syria, Lebanon, and Canada. We focus on the 3 fundamentals of ministry: 1) Evangelism, among Arabic speakers from Muslims and others, 2) Discipleship with people who are willing to carry the Gospel to others in Edmonton and Canada, and 3) Equipping people, especially the Youth, through training.
We are planning, God willing, to return to Lebanon this June 2026 a short-term mission trip. In light of the ongoing war and the difficult situation in the country, we would be very grateful if you could join us in prayer for the following:
- That the Lord would bring His peace to Lebanon and bring an end to this war.
- God’s protection and safety over the people of Lebanon and the many families affected by the conflict.
- Wisdom, discernment, and guidance for us as we prepare for this trip and every step of the journey.
- That many hearts would be comforted and drawn to the truth of the Gospel and the saving grace of our Lord Jesus Christ
Thank you again for standing with us in prayer. May the Lord bless you richly.
PRAYER ITEMS
- For students in Finals season
- For all our volunteers
- For our Missionary of the Week, Naheda & Rasem (Navigators)
