Darren, Susan, Elspeth and Catriona Wall

Hello!  In March 2005 we arrived in Cambodia.  We are members of the OMF International Cambodia Team of about 75 adults plus lots of children.  Having spent almost a year in full-time language study, Darren took over the role of Team Business Manager in May 2006, whilst Susan started teaching at our girls’ school from August 2006.

Our two lovely daughters Elspeth, born 16/10/97, and Catriona, born 24/10/99, currently go to Hope International School. 

Our experience during these last 2 years has been one of experiencing God’s grace in a powerful way as people have prayed into the situations we have highlighted in our prayer letters (see the ‘what’s new’ page for these).  We are immensely grateful to those who work so hard in praying with and for us.  Below are some prayer issues (in addition to those in our monthly Prayer News Bulletins) that you might consider praying through in your times of prayer.

 Please print and keep the following in your Bible

 ‘Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name’

• Pray that our top priority would be worshiping God, particularly in the midst of busy and tiring periods in our Team Support roles.
• Pray that when the team gathers for worship, we would expect God to be there and for there to be unity.
• Pray that many Cambodian people will be drawn to worship God and honour His Name.

‘your kingdom come’

• Pray that God will rule over us each day and that we will have the grace to obey him in the details of life.
• Pray that God will change us and Cambodian believers to be more like Jesus.

 ‘your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.’

• Pray that God will bless our day-to-day work – that in our Team Support roles we would know grace and wisdom from God to be effective for His glory
• Pray for obstacles, which keep local and international Christians from doing God’s will in Cambodia, to be removed.

 ‘Give us this day our daily bread.’

• Pray that God will supply all our needs.
• Pray that the disadvantaged in Cambodia would cry out to God and find his help and favour. 

‘Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors.’

• Pray that we would have the grace to freely forgive anyone who does us wrong.
• Pray that many Cambodians would ask God to forgive their debt of sin.

‘And lead us not into temptation’

• Pray that we would have the grace to take wrong thinking captive and make it obedient to Christ.
• Pray for Cambodian believers to withstand pressures to renounce their faith and engage in culturally accepted Buddhist or animistic practices

‘but deliver us from the evil one.’

• Pray that God will protect our family, colleagues and work from all harm.
• Pray that independent Cambodian churches will be established regardless of any attempts of the evil one.
