Pray for the guest speakers and outreach leaders as they prepare content and programs. Pray that our communications inspire the wider church and that many young adults will register.

Georgie, (Taiwan, DPG Day 9)
Pray for the women in the prison and immigration detention centre, that the message of Jesus as the true Light of the world would continue to resound in their hearts. Pray for preparations for Indonesia, for half a year of full-time language, cultural and university study.
Ken & Daphne Harding, (NSW, DPG Day 10)
Daphne was kept in hospital for 10 days over Christmas. We are waiting for a procedure when professionals return after break. She is now home, weak & tired but peaceful. We’d value prayer for her.
Byron & Lyn Johannesen, (Colombia, DPG Day 12)
Please pray for both Buga and Bugalagrande. We could be losing a couple from both places because of work. Please pray for Martin in Bugalagrande that he might be able to find a more permanent job.
Luke & Dania, (Restricted Access, DPG Day 15)
Luke has been working with the homeless community around Taipei Main station. Recently there was a coordinated knife attack on random people at the train station. Four people lost their lives and eleven were injured, right where the team had been delivering their care packages minutes before. Pray that the recent attacks will not cause undue restrictions on the homeless community and that through our work they will be encouraged to find stable accommodation. Pray for the victims and families of those affected by the stabbing that they will heal and deal with their grief and trauma.
Josue & Silvie Muhirwa, (Rwanda, DPG Day 18)
Our greatest challenge this year has been the ongoing closure of our local church. It has been nearly two years since we were last able to gather as a congregation. In July 2024, the Rwanda Governance Board (RGB) closed over 8,000 places of worship. Please pray that God reveals new ways for us to nourish and protect the flock while we await the reopening of our church facilities.
Benjamin & Lara, (NSW, DPG Day 20)
We praise God for the time we've had at the Grace Community centre and we thank Him for every opportunity and relationship. It is now time to close the doors and hand in the keys, but we are excited to see how the Grace Community project continues in the New Year. Pray for Afghan believers to grow in trust of each other, for Jesus to overcome the fear they have, and for God to raise up amongst them, a desire to meet in an Afghan fellowship of believers, if that is His will. Pray for future direction for us.
Simeon & Mary Tuyizere, (Ghana, DPG Day 26)
Please pray for successful literacy and numeracy centres to be established in 6 Fulbe communities to support the spreading of the Gospel and growth of God’s kingdom. Pray for the grinding mill and water supply projects to go ahead to enhance financial ministry sustainability.
Ben & Alice Warren, (France, DPG Day 28)
Pray for continued guidance, encouragement and direction for them as they work through issues with their ministry team. Praise they are getting to know their neighbours.
Matt & Debi Zook, (Mozambique, DPG Day 29)
Please pray for Debi back in in Australia to participate in the funeral service for her mother on January 9th.
