May we place these important concerns before you for you prayer participation?

1 For the United Arab Emirates believers to go forward together, especially the ministry leaders, after the recent national prayer initiative there in a united prayer and mission movement that God will use to bless that nation and the world like a new Antioch.

2 For the ministry leaders of Israel- Messianic Jews, Israeli Arabs and Palestinians- to come together in spite of their divisions about the land and government and form an ongoing united prayer movement for the healing of their land and even the end of the Arab-Israeli conflict. With God all things are possible! For us in the IPC to know what our part should be to aid in this process.

3 For the current ceasefire to continue, humanitarian shipments to flow in where needed, and for an end of the war in Syria that has caused the deaths of up to 400,000 and made millions homeless refugees. Pray for the crucial March 9 meeting to move the peace process forward. Also, that Syrians, many of whom are now very responsive to the Gospel, will hear it and come to Christ.

4 Turkey national and regional prayer initiative, May 18-21. For the organization, program development team, and funds still needed for several hundred Turks, Koreans and other nationalities that are coming together to pray for this most unreached land and the rest of the Middle East.

Thanks so much for joining us in prayer for these important matters.
