40 Days of Prayer - Day 17

WEEK 4 – THE LOCAL RESPONSE: COMMUNITY OWNERSHIP

A core value of Hands at Work is being committed to local community ownership. Transformation in the communities we serve is dependent upon God revealing local people who are willing to serve their community through sacrificial giving and compassionate relationships.

Day 17

"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.” By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another. – John 13:34-35

Amidst many challenges, Hands at Work has found hope in caring for the most vulnerable through the local churches of Malawi. Our vision for the local church to care for those in need is especially strong in Malawi where local volunteers are giving of themselves to care for their communities. Hands at Work supports the many men and women who have stepped up in the poorest communities to sacrificially care for the orphaned and vulnerable. Pray for more men and women to take ownership of their community as Hands at Work seeks to expand in 2016.

Listen to Royie + Violet as they share about the hope found in their homeland of Malawi. Pray along with them as we begin Week 4 together, praying for transformation in communities.
