GLOBAL WEEK OF PRAYER - DAY 5

        MESOAMERICA REGION

   
PRAISES
We mobilized more “sponsored” missionaries in a single year than ever before! Volunteer missionaries impacted our cities and countries, representing 9,273 days and 222,552 hours donated to Nazarene missionary work.
While many Nazarene homes have suffered the death of loved ones and many have contracted Covid-19, more than 18,000 people united in prayer devotionals on live and virtual platforms.
    
We praise God that during the pandemic many young people have been trained in youth ministry. This has resulted in many young people in Mesoamerica being reached with the Word of God and ministered to by their peers.

We praise God for the completion of the Impact Mentoring Project. The regional project aimed to develop over 400 leaders so that they are able to intentionally act as counselors and mentors for new generations, integrating those with pastoral calling and leadership in formal theological education programs. 

Praise God for the renewal of the Church of the Nazarene on the Mesoamerican Region through 80 Days of Prayer 2021 initiative.

 REQUESTS

    Pray that we will be able to send 20 missionaries next year to the cities of Mesoamerica!
    Pray that the Lord will reach local NYI through the quadrennial NYI emphasis on the region.
    We ask the Lord that the church in Mesoamerica remember their calling and that the Holy Spirit mobilize each Nazarene to fulfill the Great Commission.
    Pray that the church in Mesoamerica takes on a spirit of mentorship.
    Pray for us as we continue to train, learn, and walk along the Journey of Grace.

STORY OF PRAISE
The Mesoamerica region praises God for the successful launch of the Journey of Grace discipleship training. We began with a regional workshop, taught by Dr. Scott Rainey in English, Spanish and French, attended by more than 600 people. The workshop provided training and resources free to download. We have continued to rollout the Journey of Grace via Sunday School classes, small groups, monthly trainings, and more follow-up workshops. We are excited about the reports we have been receiving on the renewed emphasis and progress in discipleship in the local church.
