Cook: Johannesburg, South Africa

Mozambique stretches along the coastline of the Indian Ocean. For centuries, it was influenced by the Portuguese who left some Catholic influence. Later the slave traders who came brought a strong Muslim influence. There is also an imbedded influence of African tribal religion, rooted in tradition and culture. Baptist missionaries work with many small congregations in planting churches and mentoring national Christians.

Pray for our IMB missionaries in Mozambique who are learning the language. Pray the Lord will lead them to villages that are open to hear and respond to the gospel.

Pray for the Buccleuch Community Church that they will continue to seek opportunities to serve people of all races in this diverse city.
