We also pray that you will be strengthened with his glorious power so that you will have all the patience and endurance you need. May you be filled with joy. — Colossians 1:11 (NLT)
Missionaries deal with many of the same stresses you face in life such as overwhelming workloads, relational conflicts and financial uncertainties. Often, however, missionaries struggle with these issues alone, without the fellowship and support of other Christians. Living and working cross-culturally adds an additional element that can challenge their emotional, spiritual and physical vitality.
Pray that God will provide opportunities for missionaries in lonely areas to spend time with other believers.
Pray that God will provide times of peace and relaxation to refresh His workers.
Pray that God will encourage missionaries with the knowledge that people back home care about their emotional well-being.
