Pray for Sri Lanka

Written by Admin

The Foursqure church in Sri Lanka struggled to grow this year unlike in the past years. This was due to open persecution and lack of freedom to express our faith openly. Below are a few statistics of our growth patterns this year:

- We had 7,186 people receiving Jesus for the first time
-  457 obeyed in water baptism
-  748 became new members
-  3151 were baptized in the holy spirit
-  13,651 were healed
-   40 new churches were planted around the island

We now have 1,864 churches and meeting places, 520 credentialed Pastors and Church Planters and over 1,000 young people being trained in programs for evangelism and Church planting.

Our 4 children's homes, 2 vocational training schools, 2 widow centers and the school for children with special needs are doing well despite the financial support we face to sustain them.

We thank you for your prayers and partnership in the work God is doing in Sri Lanka and appreciate your renewed commitment for prayer and financial support these coming years.

Please uphold us in the following prayer request:

  1. Our nation for a fair and free election as we face our Presidential election on the 8th of January 2015.
  2. The ongoing floods all over the Island have affected many thousands; we need material and prayer support to minister to the needs of those in refugee camps.
  3. Persecution continues unabated against the churches in Sri Lanka, many churches and Pastors are constantly threatened of physical attacks,
  4. Christian parents find it almost impossible to enroll their children to schools they are not admitted into most institutions run by the government.
