We desire to see people from all backgrounds loving their creator with all their hearts, loving their neighbours as themselves, and forming into loving communities.

Communities where Christ is least known
Bengali
The largest community in Bangladesh is also one of the mega-people groups in the world. Made up of Muslims and Hindus, much work has been done amongst them since the time of William Carey. We praise God for increased transformation over the last 40 years, but compared to the size of the population, this can be discouraging. The Christian community in the country is often inward looking, socially and culturally isolated and, more recently, persecuted as a minority. The capital, Dhaka, is made up of 16 million people.
Prayers
Pray for people we encounter to be open to hearing and accepting the Word of God.
