Praying for the Nations - Somalia


Every class at The Heiskell School studies a different nation each year. In the third grade, we study the nation of Africa. As part of our study of the nations, on Tuesdays and Thursdays we spend our morning prayer time focused on the people in a particular country in Africa. Last week, our focus was on the country of Ethiopia. This week, we will be praying for the country of Somalia. Will you join us in praying for the people of Somalia and for the missionaries who are there sharing the gospel? Will you also ask God to give you His heart for the nations? Here are some of the petitions our students are making on behalf of the nation of Somalia:
  • people would have glasses if they need them
  • there would be more Christians
  • wars and fighting to cease
  • people would have enough space
  • children would be able to go to school
  • there would be money for clothing
  • provide jobs
  • medicine and cures for sickness
  • safety
  • Bibles
  • homes and shelter
  • they would have rulers who are not bad
  • toys to play with
  • no one would go to jail
  • food
