Post-Quake Prayer Requests
- That the government would allow outside responders to stay and help and that they will allow funding to keep flowing in.
- That people would have access to food, water, medical care and other needs
- Pray for local churches:
- Nepal is 81% Hindu, and only 3% Christian. The earthquake struck precisely during weekly worship services...
- Nepali churches are trying to be at the center of bringing hope and practical help, emotional and spiritual care. Pray for the Church to reach out and that many Nepalese will turn to Christ as a result.
- New openness to the gospel when churches reaches out to help locals... Where do you go when you're at the place of despair? Hindus may be turning to the church to find care.
- A3 teams have been assessing needs on the ground; pray for our teams to make wise decisions in distributing funds. Pray for more funds and that funds received by all the groups will get to the ground in Nepal quickly.
- This disaster is falling off the radar rapidly. Pray for people to get updates and continue to respond in compassion.
- Pray for perseverance for those displaced, for those delivering aid, and for the government of Nepal, as it will take years to resolve and rebuild.

- Of the 31 million people who make up thiscountry (not to mention other countries affected), 27 million are considered unreached with the gospel, including almost 4 million unengaged-unreached.
- Pray that people will have access to basic needs like food, water, shelter, and medical care. Currently those affected by the earthquake are sleeping outside, water sources are compromised, and medical facilities overrun.
- Pray for the church in Nepal to immediately respond to needs in their communities in ways that allow them to share the gospel.
- Pray for many in Nepal to turn to Christ in the midst of this crisis.
- Pray for protection, provision, and boldness for responders and other partners working in Nepal.
