Ian & Leann Buckley, (Nepal, DPG Day 3)
The big Nepali elections are happening this Thursday (5th March). There are police and army stationed everywhere. Please pray that the best party will get elected that is anti-corruption and sincerely wants to do what is best for the nation, and that there will be no civil unrest. Some furniture that was delivered to the VTC Beauty Salon was wrong. Please pray that this can be corrected quickly.
Daniel & Emily, (Restricted Access, DPG Day 6)
Dan is hopeful to travel in May for filming new projects and other ministry support. Please pray for the many moving parts to come together so that plans can be set. Pray for the planning of dates and people for our next set of media training workshops. Pray that we would follow Jesus in all we do, including the plans we make
Paul & Leah Davies, (Ireland (enroute), DPG Day 6)
Wednesday is the deadline for our visa appeal to be submitted - I was told by our lawyers that they would submit this on the 28th to be sure it arrives in Dublin by the 4th but I had not been notified of that until 4am last night. Please join us as we ask in faith that God would send us to Ireland, knowing that He cares more for the lost than we do, He knows what the future holds and calls each of us to be faithful to what He has put in front of us each day.
Jared & Megan Emery, (Albania (enroute), DPG Day 7)
We have been given the green light by WEC leadership to book our tickets and head to Tirane, Albania!! We are booked to fly out on the 8th of April, travelling for 23 hours to the other side of the world. Please pray for safety in travel (we are going through KL, not Doha) and for smooth connections as we travel with two preschoolers. Please pray that we find affordable accommodation and fit in well with the team there.
Claire Morris, (Spain, DPG Day 18)
Praise God for His sustaining grace over my first year here and for the growing friendships in the language class that I am in. Pray for boldness and wisdom in my conversations with them. Pray with me as my mum is here for a visit and re-considering Christianity. Pray I will be sensitive to the Lord in our conversations. Pray for gospel conversations in the lead up to Easter and for one friend that I can start reading the Bible with in Spanish
Paul & Fenny, (Restricted Access, DPG Day 20)
Please pray for blessing, their favour and Father's wisdom and guidance and courage as we press forward into village ministry again after being away. Please pray for me as I am involved in development of new hospital services including Emergency Room and Intensive Care Unit /High Dependency Unit services, as well as Acute Internal Medicine services. Pray for our daughter Esther getting left out from play by classmates after being away in Australia for three months. Please pray for resilience and encouragement through challenges faced in ministry, at work and school, and hope in the face of oppressive death.
Liz Pfeifer, (Thailand, DPG Day 20)
Please pray for provision of remaining support needed to return to Asia in May 2026. For more opportunities to share about literacy, Bloom, and Alpha Tiles. Open doors to speak in churches and small groups. Wisdom as I work with an exercise physiologist to support my health and strength. Continued healing and strengthening of my wrist. For focus, confidence and good time management as I return to study next week, especially with coding and group work.
Rob & Denise, (Restricted Access, DPG Day 22)
Thank you so much for continuing to lift up our young friend in prayer. We arrived at the hospital at 6:00 am on Thurs and he went into surgery @ 7:30 which lasted 3 hours. Though the tumour was well contained, it was very large and weighed about 3 kilograms. Both the tumour and the left kidney were successfully removed. We are incredibly grateful for this humble and skilled surgeon. Continue to pray for P’s protection, a smooth recovery and that he remains free from infection.
Jason Stuart, (PNG, DPG Day 24)
Thank you for praying for my trip to Inaru last month. The mentally ill man who has terrorized and disrupted the village for the last few years seems to be back in his right mind and functioning normally. We thank the Lord for that. The Inaru church needs prayer to make decisions to prioritize God and His Word. There is a very real danger that they will lose the entire younger generation to the world unless they make a purposeful effort to be sharing Christ. Pray especially for the very small team of church leaders who are bearing this large responsibility.
John & Remy Tan, (VIC, DPG Day 24)
Please pray for us and Janelle, that we will keep focused on God and His will for our lives; a fruitful time at the AMT National Conference in April; the logistics and success of the EMDC Conference in May; the gospel to spread further.
Robyn & Stefanie Tommy, (PNG, DPG Day 26)
The grade 3 class we were worried about has started with the help of Robyn’s sister, Mrs Methrude Morea temporarily. However, we need a permanent teacher to be in place as soon as possible so that the students can settle into a good routine and continue their learning well. There are now 24 students, including 10 new students who have transferred from other schools. We will have to postpone our home assignment until later this year due to changes in the program. It’s quite disappointing but we trust in God’s timing and will wait first because we know that God’s plans for us are good.
Urban Mission Camp, (Vic, DPG Day 26)
Urban Mission Camp is just 5 weeks away, yet we only have ~10 registrations. Please pray that many more would register and that our communications continue to effectively reach those who would benefit from this event. Pray for the guest speakers and outreach leaders as they prepare content and programs. For more information, please visit https://www.amtglobal.com.au/urban-mission-camp-2026/
Andrew & Catherine Walkington, (QLD, DPG Day 27)
With the Worldview camp not viable this year, we are hoping to take some Worldview type content to Christian secondary schools as a lunchtime program. We believe that this will be a wonderful blessing to the teens, and we are hopeful that this will also eventually help us reboot the camp in the coming years. Please pray for connections at Christian schools, particularly in the South-East Queensland area.
Mitchell & Chloe Williams, (Spain, DPG Day 28)
Chloe has been admitted to hospital in Bundaberg with Ventricular Tachycardia. She seems okay, but her heart has some strange rhythms from time to time that were becoming more frequent. Meanwhile Mitch’s mum is in hospital after a severe heart attack last Thursday and will either have stents inserted in Bundaberg or possibly flown to Brisbane for bypass surgery. Also, Mitch has had a melanoma cut out of his back, and depending on results, may have to have further surgery. They are meant to fly back to Spain on the 13th of March. Please be praying for good results and direction.
