Pray for the many unpaid carers as they do their best to support elderly relatives and those living with disabilities. Pray that we will look for more opportunities to do good for others in your name. Pray for parents, who themselves are growing older, and are concerned about looking after their adult children with learning/physical disabilities long-term.
Public AffairsMany hospitals experience an influx of patients at this time of year, putting staff under additional pressure; pray for all those in hospitals. Pray for those leading our health and social care services, as they work to improve health and social care and adapt care systems to meet changing needs.

God’s Needle
In 1957, newly-qualified nurse Lily Gaynor set sail for Guinea-Bissau to live among the Papel tribe. Tuberculosis, malaria and typhoid were rife. Children were grossly malnourished; witchdoctors flourished. Lily set up a clinic under the mango trees administering penicillin — ‘God’s Needle’. Filled with one arresting story after another, God’s Needle tells of Lily’s faithfulness in the face of considerable opposition as she provided medical care, preached the gospel and translated the Bible. And from these humble beginnings God has grown the church in Guinea-Bissau to be one of the largest in West Africa. https://uk.10ofthose.com/product/9781914966286/gods-needle-paperback Read First Chapter Here https://uk.10ofthose.com/assets/product_downloads/7865/LQn1nqLvVnZkyUB9fxFxt5CB9FKDsE0Z2sIlqg8x.pdf |
