Prayer for Mission in Swaziland

This week, we pray for our missionary in Swaziland, Lizzy Beach.  She has served for over a year in an African nation ravaged by AIDS, leaving countless children orphaned and many infected themselves.  In this impoverished country, people have responded -- out of necessity -- by changing their understanding of family, as many bring these children, and others in need, into their homes.

You can read more about the mission to Swaziland here, including links to interviews and a detailed account of the hope that our missionary attempts to bring to a desperate situation.

There are Christian missionaries serving around the world on our behalf in 70 countries. Each week, Global Missions highlights one of these missions and asks the church to pray for its continued vitality in spreading the Gospel.
