A reminder to pray

With all the controversy swirling around the IMB it is quite possible that people who’s focus had generally been directed toward prayer support for our missionaries, may now find themselves distracted by all that is occuring. I wanted to post a comment from a friend of mine who is a retired IMB missionary who spent decades working in the Philippines and then later in Africa. I thought it was a good reminder to us all.

I remember well when we were in Africa at the time of the big dissension in the convention when Dr Keith Parks was IMB president. We felt it so strongly in Africa, the lack of prayer support, etc. We just don’t need divisions at this time when so much else is happening.
