Here are some prayer requests from our IMB missionaries in Europe. Please continue to remember ourpain personnel as many of them are in strict lockdown situations where they serve:
Spain: During lockdown we have seen many new viewers and guests for online church services. Pray that when lockdown ends, these will translate to seekers out there connecting in person to hear more of the gospel in the context of a good community of believers.
Germany: In Hamburg, colleagues are partnering with Cru and the local evangelical alliance to gather and encourage M’s in the city in their work. With the current rules in place, the meeting has moved online. Pray for it to go well, for the technology to “play nice,” and for the encouragement of those who have moved to Hamburg to reach the city.
Hungary: Budapest team personnel ministering through mercy ministries ask that you pray for the start of a Turner Syndrome on-line Bible Study. These ladies and families live all over Hungary. Pray that it will start in May, and that God would build this group from a few to many.
Holland: Please pray wisdom for a colleague here as he prepares teaching material via YouTube on the book of James. Dutch University students will be using this for their discipleship time over the next 2 months, pray that they will be strengthened in their faith and grow as disciple makers. ere

“I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world, you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” John 16:33.
I am not sure, the pandemic if it is coming from God or Satan, the peoples in the world are in tribulation live fear, pain, false, wicked and needy more than ever before because of the political, economic, healthcare, social, and religious corruptions and confliction. Believe and pray that God will relent the deceases and heal the peoples in the world quickly. Please our Lord God.

Thanks for update!
Tony,
Your readers might like to know that Sunday, Mother’s Day, was also the 175th anniversary of the founding of the FMB/IMB. In that time Southern Baptists have sent over 25,000 missionaries around the world to spread the message of salvation through Jesus Christ. Below is a note from the IMB. There is a very interesting timeline on the history of the IMB included. Thanks for sharing prayer requests.
IMB 175 years!
Greetings my brothers and sisters!
You may not be aware, but I hope you are, the International Mission Board turns 175 on Sunday, May 10! That means 175 years of sending passionate disciples into the world to make disciples of the nations. East Asia was first to receive a sent out one, Samuel C. Clopton. We have a rich and rewarding history, and the IMB is taking 175 days this year to celebrate through daily prayer, videos, books, photos, and increased social presence. Did I mention prayer? You can download the IMB Prayer app and receive these daily prayers beginning Monday. You can also access them on the website. The 175 days will conclude during the Week of Prayer for International Missions the end of November. You will be blessed if you take some time to check out all that is happening during these 175 days.
Here is a blurb from the prayer office:
If you have not already heard, we are ALL celebrating 175 years of God’s story. An amazing timeline has just been released at https://www.imb.org/175/ and we are hosting 175 Days of Prayer from May 11-November 29.
