Pray for the world
Romania — Materialism imported from the
West has damaged spirituality. Westerners displayed a lack of wisdom
in Romania by creating division and jealousy with their
well-publicized material assistance. The deep spirituality of
churches were adversely affected as some agencies brought in their
Western values. Pray that outside assistance might be offered in an
attitude of humility and service to the Romanian Church. Also pray
that they can meet the needs of Christian youth. Few are able to
minister meaningfully to young people.
