Somali Believers Receive Discipleship Training

[179] prayers in [15] nations have been posted for Somali Believers.

Many believers from inside Somalia are fleeing to Uganda, and this has created a unique discipleship opportunity as they seek to establish their lives in their new country. These believers are participating in a discipleship training school where they are intentionally learning about God and growing in their Christian faith. Entire families are attending the school and growing in Christian fellowship with other Somali believers as well as believers from neighboring countries. Pray that these students will grow in their understanding of their faith and that they will continue to advance the gospel through their training. Pray that their needs will be met as they start over in a new country.
