Lisa Garcia-Prayers for the firefighters and residents of our community that are affected by the fires.

Major Trish Simeroth-Tim’s Grandma Ruby is still very ill. Her heart is failing to keep up and while they attempted to give her meds to speed her heart rate up it made things worse.

Prayer Focus 6 – 12 January 2025 Pakistan Territory

Please pray for the following Strategic Priorities of our territory. May wisdom, clarity, and unity guide all decisions and actions.

1-Financial Sustainability

We have moved towards financial independence and sustainability, by promoting stewardship (including tithing) among our people, by careful financial management, and by promoting enterprise skills at the community level for reducing reliance on external sources of finance.

2- Discipleship

We are engaged in theological education development at all levels for equipping of soldiers (members) and officers (ministers). We want prayers for the spiritual revival in The Salvation Army Pakistan as so many unregistered denominations are confusing our soldiery.

3- Growth

We are looking for open new corps, societies, outposts and community services centres. Our work in progress for opening physical rehabilitation centre.

4- Relationships

We have developed new and existing relationships with government officials, and with other churches, at both divisional and territorial levels.

5- Leader-development

We have developed officers through effective succession-planning, leader-development, and ‘refresher’ courses.

6. Commissioning scheduled in April 2025. There are 15 cadets from Champions of Mission session.

7. General Visit in Pakistan Territory in April 2025.
