Easter Presence

Saturday, April 4, 1998 Mary Daniel

Turn Your Radio On

Worldwide Ministry

Pray
Sunday, September 13, 2026 – In Cuba — Pastor Marcos' church continues to try and feed those in even greater need than themselves in their neighbourhood. They provide a community lunch on Saturdays. Pray that the Lord will provide the food and equipment they need to continue this service, simple things like pots, pans and a stove. Pray for these starving people to put their trust in God.
