It’s Wednesday, so don’t forget to pray for The Gambia. 

Also, let’s keep Joanne/Ajisuun in prayer as well. Her return to The Gambia has been delayed by some medical roadblocks. Let’s pray for her, the health concerns, and that she will eventually be able to return to The Gambia to continue ministering to the folks there.

³ As the dew of Hermon, and as the dew that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, even life for evermore.
