Week 49 - Latin America
December 2nd - 8th
Monday (2nd) - Colombia
Through the project Learning to Read and Write with Purpose, we have supported a group of soldiers, who were unable to read, with workshops so that they can begin their learning process. This included the purchase of 60 chairs so that they could take their classes comfortably. Please pray that God will use this experience to bring about much good in their lives.
Tuesday (3rd) - Chile
We thank God for His help in the sale of our warehouse as the property was located in an area where this was difficult to achieve. Now, we are asking for prayer for the young people who come to our bookstores that they may always feel welcomed and find answers through the Word and good Christian literature.
Wednesday (4th) - Ecuador
We are very thankful to the Lord for all that He is doing in our country through CLC. Please pray for us as we plan to sell the first place where CLC opened in Ecuador. Currently, the property is for rent, but it is small and has no parking facilities. The sale will help us to move to a new property in the city of Quito with enough space for the distribution and administration.
Thursday (5th) - Mexico
Around our facilities, there are many transportation terminals that lead to the cities of southeastern Mexico. At the end of the year, there are many people arriving and leaving the city, which generates a lot of traffic in the area. Let us pray that many believers and also non-believers will be interested in entering the bookstore while waiting for their departure time.
Friday (6th) - Mexico
CLC Mexico has made an agreement with the SIL (Summer Institute of Linguistics), which will enable us to have Bibles, Bible portions and materials that have been translated for more than 80 ethnic groups in Mexico available at CLC. Please pray that we can reach many through this agreement.
The Weekend (7th - 8th) - Venezuela
We are thankful that we have been able to sell low-cost Bibles and evangelistic tracts to ministries that work in outreach to those in prisons. Similarly, we have been able to supply low-cost Bibles to a ministry in Caracas that delivers them to people without resources, including children and young people, in dangerous or inaccessible areas.
