Pray for wisdom for those in leadership as they make decisions on what precautions to take and how to respond as COVID-19 has been spreading throughout the region.
Pray for conversations with locals about the fear and anxiety many have towards this illness and its spread. Pray that those in the Arabian Peninsula would recognize that they are not immune to the brokenness of the world. Pray that they would be pointed to their need for a savior as their sense of security is broken.
Outwardly, lent can appear similar to fasting our friends do during Ramadan. Pray for opportunities to share about the meaning and purpose of lent. Ask for wisdom in sharing how lent is different than Ramadan and about fasting in the Christian context. Pray that locals would be drawn to the freedom found in Jesus and the personal relationship we have with the Father.
