Csaba and Ilona Veres, global mission workers, Hungary

Give thanks that football has opened doors for Csaba and Ilona to connect with young boys who would otherwise be challenging to reach. Pray that the Holy Spirit would continue to speak into the lives of the young people and many would respond positively to the good news. Pray that as the youth group re-starts in September, many of those that Csaba and Ilona connected with over the summer would come along and have a hunger for the Word of God.

Presbyterian Church in Brazil (IPB)

Give thanks for 1,500 pastors, elders and leaders from all over Brazil who came together for the 41st meeting of the Supreme Council of the IPB at the end of July, and also for the 24 years of dedicated service by outgoing President, Rev Roberto Brasileiro Silva. Pray that God would sustain, guide and encourage the newly elected office bearers: Rev Juarez Marcondes Filho, President, and Rev Robinson Grangereiro Monteiro, Executive Secretary, as they take up their responsibilities.
