June, 2012 Prayer Requests

So, what's for dinner tonight? A daily predicament for the average American family. Will it be tacos or pizza? Or hamburgers? But we just had hamburgers on Monday... For most of us, the question of what's for dinner is a matter of choosing something from the bounty that lies in our fridges and pantries. In West Africa, dinner can often be a question of, "Is there anything left for dinner?" And if there is something there, "Is it enough to last us until the next harvest?" Many places in West Africa are experiencing shortages of food this year. Weather conditions and political and social conditions in many West African nations have all contributed to this. Though I don't have any information specific to the Beng people, I would think that there are at least some who are struggling to provide food for their families. Pray with me this month that God would provide the Beng with the food they need. Pray that the Beng would look to the one true God for both physical and spiritual nourishment.
