-PRAISE GOD BIG TIME for rescuing one of our girls last friday. Praise him for who He is – our loving redeeming saving Father. Pray for spiritual protection for this girl that Satan would not snatch the seed away. Pray for her discipleship as the team works out the best way to do that, and pray that this girl will grow in her faith rapidly and soon be witnessing to the others.
-Pray for the team to have patience in waiting for Gods timing with the other kids. Pray for our plans of doing a home-grown ‘basics of christianity’ course on a sunday night after easter. Pray that we would see more of the guys who used to come.

-Praise for a great day away with 9 of the kids yesterday for CY.
-Praise for a good night on Friday, although some were quite hyper and disruptive, so pray for more calm this week.
-Praise God for a growing church; two of the girls came to church today (following the away day) and seemed to enjoy it.
-Pray for those who were there yesterday, that the gospel message and their need to respond would really reach their hearts over the coming days.
-Continue to pray for one boy, and thank God for opportunities we have had to chat with him.
-Pray for the final week of CY and for a way we can continue to keep the group going after Easter, discipling these young people.
Risca
-Thanks to God for the lovely kids and youth we have. They are all awesome. With the kids, we didn’t have as many as usual, probably due to the weather, but pray that we would have them all back again this week. But pray that the weather stays the same!
-With the youth, they were really good at listening to the talk but pray that it’s actually sinking in. And especially pray for one girl who really seems to be getting things. although we might not be seeing her for a long time so pray that she really seeks God while she’s away and reads her bible.
Pray for the last one before Easter, and we give them something to think about over the holiday.
Bargoed
-Praise to God for being such an amazing God and loving us.
-Prayer that the same group of kids would come back next week and potentially not be as hyper (they seem to enjoy hitting each other with pool cues!), so that we can talk to them a little more seriously.
-Prayer that they children would start taking God seriously and want to know him as their father.
Deri
Please pray for:
-Continued protection from spitiualism etc
-The behaviour of the kids, which seems to be getting worse. Ask that we would not have to seem like teachers, but brothers and sisters.
-The kids who have taken up smoking.
-All of them who have exams coming up/are waiting for results.
-The work columbian David is doing there, and the passion he brings to bible study.
-Khareeza and I, that we would be able to manage them and have fun next week.
-Thanks for the amazing conversation Simeon had with them on Friday.
Trevethin
-We had a tough night in Trevethin last Monday, where Satan’s clutches on the estate were just really blatant. Darkness is properly masquerading as light.
-Please pray that the kids’ eyes would be opened and they’d see it as evil and not good.
-Please pray that they’d turn to Christ and not to the ouija boards etc they’re mucking about with.
-Praise God for the love He’s given us for all of the young people. It’s so blatantly of Him!! Pray that it would grow and that we’d continue to shine the light of Christ into their darkness.
Abertillery
-We’re still in the series on exploring where God’s heart is in films, using a great book called ‘Passion for the Movies’ by J.John. , and the kids seems to really relate to it, it has been challenging but we’re praying that the kids have related to it and understood the message. We have had good conversations about Jesus, but also difficult weeks where they just won’t listen.
-Despite just having 3 of us this week it went well and God used us where we felt inadequate
-Pray for the kids coming back that they’d settle in
-Pray for a continuing friendship in the team, that we would grow closer and more passionate about the gospel together
-The games went well with the kids this week, it was fun so thanks to God that we can hang out with them freely, and prayer that this would lead to stronger bond with the kids, and ultimately for them to be saved!
Treorchy
-Thank God for last week – we had a really good time and they listened really well to the talk on healing and a guy came forward for prayer for his brother to be healed. We will see him again this week hopefully so keep praying that God has/will heal his brother.
-Thank God for the variety of young people who come and spend time with us at the youth club, and thank God that they really got involved last week.
-Pray that this week when we are talking about the importance of church, they would be interested and want to go to church and see what it’s like.
-Pray for all of the young people that we could have really good relationships with them and that they would respect us and we would have a lot of fun with them.
-Pray that we would be filled with energy and passion to make this week the best yet.
-Pray for salvation in Treorchy like we could never have imagined.
-Pray for God’s guidance for after easter, that we would know what to do and how to balance exams and still help out.
