Prayer Focus

Please pray for the six members of FEBC-Ukraine who are in the Ukrainian military. Please pray for their safety, and for God to use them to support the soldiers they are serving.

Please pray for listeners like Artem, whose life was destroyed because of his drug addiction. “I lost my family, I wasted so much time. Now, I want to fix everything, but I can’t.” Artem gave his life to Jesus as he spoke to one of FEBC’s follow-up workers. Please pray for him as he takes his first steps in the faith.

Please pray for Igor, from Russia, who leads one of FEBC-Russia’s Bible programs and a program for parents with children who have special needs. The response he is receiving is powerful. Many are being saved, coming to church, praying, and reading the Bible for the first time.

Please pray for listeners like Anya, who had to leave her home in Ukraine. “I’m about to leave, but I feel completely unready. I’m going to be alone, and I don’t know what’s waiting for me.” Millions of Ukrainians have had to flee their homes because of the war, scared and unsure of where they would go. Anya prayed with one of FEBC’s follow-up evangelists and put her faith in Jesus. Please pray for those who had to flee their homes to hear the Good News through FEBC’s programs and come to a saving knowledge of Jesus.

Please pray for the safety of the staff of FEBC-Ukraine in Kyiv, where a rocket recently landed only a kilometer away. The staff is under heavy pressure, with air-raid sirens blasting almost every day. Please also pray for their spiritual, psychological, and physical strength.

Please pray for listeners like Dmitry, who had been suffering from mental illness. He was now doing better, but was worried about entering his life again when he called FEBC’s follow-up evangelists. He gave his life to Jesus during the call and went to church the next day. Please pray for struggling listeners like Dmitry who are hearing the Good News and whose lives are being transformed.

Please pray for the safety of FEBC-Ukraine’s follow-up workers, who help listeners come to Christ, help avert suicides, and help listeners save their marriages. They are located across Ukraine and they sometimes have to flee their homes and find safety in a different part of the country.

Please pray for listeners like Lena who were traumatized by the war. “I went to a psychologist, and things seemed to get better, but when the sirens blare, I just panic.” As FEBC’s follow-up evangelist shared with her about Jesus’s sacrifice and the power of prayer, Lena decided to put her faith in Christ. “The Lord touched me during the prayer,” she said, “I couldn’t stop crying. I could feel a weight lift off my shoulders. Thank you so much for supporting me!”

Please pray for FEBC-Qazaqstan team, Ruslan, Aizhan, Ulan, and Aruzhan. They are reaching many Qazaq people with the Good News, especially young people. Please pray for the team’s safety and for the Lord to lead many more Qazaq’s to himself through FEBC’s programs.

Please pray for the many listeners like Maria, whose marriages are breaking up because of infidelity. “I destroyed my family,” she said. “I want to fix things, but I don’t know how.” Maria gave her life to Christ, putting her faith in Him and asking for forgiveness. She was connected with a local minister and is going to work to rebuild her life. Please pray for the many families that are breaking up after having been separated for long periods.

Please pray for the men serving with FEBC-Ukraine. There is a risk of them being drafted to the frontlines of the war at any time. Please pray that they are able to continue serving the people of Ukraine through FEBC-Ukraine.

Please pray for listeners like Yana, who called FEBC because her anxiety was overwhelming her. FEBC’s follow-up evangelist helped Yana process her fears and shared with her about Christ and the power of the Word of God. “You’ve inspired me to start reading the Bible,” Yana said. They prayed, and Yana put her faith in Jesus, asking him to heal her pain and fear. Please pray for her on her new journey with Christ.

Praise God! We have received 10-year licenses to broadcast in Kyiv and Ivano-Frankivsk, where we had temporary war-time licenses. This has been a great blessing, as these two stations have started producing most of FEBC-Ukraine’s listener responses, especially Kyiv, the capital.

Please pray for soldiers like Artur, who are coming home with severe injuries. Artur had received a head injury in the war and he was having severe issues. He spoke with one of FEBC’s follow up evangelists, putting his faith in Jesus as they prayed together.

Please pray for the FEBC-Russia team, including Oleg, Alexei, Maria, Igor, and Oleg, as they stand for the Truth in the midst of growing pressure and darkness. Please pray that God draws many to the light of the Gospel through their programs and listener interactions

Please pray for listeners like Anya, from Russia, who was being abused in her marriage, and needed help. She was pregnant and was worried about where she could go. FEBC’s follow-up evangelists prayed with her and connected her with a church that could encourage her in her faith and help her in her situation. Please pray for the many other women in Russia and the surrounding region who are experiencing abuse in their marriages and families.

Please pray for the follow-up workers of the Helpline. Every day they receive a huge number of calls and messages: a lot of people are frightened, have lost their loved ones, their homes. Some of them feel hopeless and lost in life. Please pray that God leads our follow-up workers, gives them strength and wisdom in their work.

Please pray for listeners like Vadim, whose family was filled with violence and abuse. “I was always filled with anxiety,” he said. “Especially when I had to go home. My dad would drink and hit my mom. I couldn’t stop him. I even tried to end my life, but I survived.” Vadim prayed with FEBC’s counselor to accept Christ, and he was given resources so that he could receive help with his situation. Abuse is not an uncommon issue in Russia, and many families suffer from it, often when one or both parents drink. Please pray for Vadim to get help and to continue to grow in his relationship with Christ.

Please pray for the women’s meetings we organize for the relatives of the soldiers in different cities of Ukraine. Mostly non-believers are coming to them, and this is often the first in their lives that they pray, asking God to protect their loved ones who are at the front lines. Many are being connected to churches and are beginning to get to know the Lord.

Please pray for listeners like Alina, from Russia, who was born in an atheistic family, and never really considered believing in God. “Going to university in the city just cemented that. I started going to parties, drinking…until, one day, I came home from a party and felt empty and alone. I started looking for answers, and a friend suggested your programs. I can’t even explain the joy I felt about what I heard on the air. It was as if you knew my questions and answered them for me in the program.” Alina soon started going to church and reading the Bible. “Thank you for your programs! You helped me understand the most important thing in my life!” Please pray for Alina to give her life to Christ.

Please pray for a member of the follow up evangelistic team that is having serious health issues. Please pray for total healing and restoration.

Please pray for listeners like Vera, who has a son with special needs. “I had no idea what to do,” she said. “You helped me find help, and now I have hope for my son!” FEBC-Russia’s program, Nothing Special, provides spiritual and professional resources to parents who are raising children with special needs. Please pray for this program to continue giving parents hope, especially the only True hope, Jesus Christ.

Please pray for the bloggers that the FEBC-Moldova team is training and supporting. Together, they are reaching millions of Moldovans with the Good News, and are seeing many come to faith through conversations that start through these programs.

Please pray for listeners like Nikolai, from Russia, who, after losing his wife to cancer, got cancer himself. After a surgery, he lost the ability to speak. “I was very lonely,” he wrote. “I haven’t left the house for three years now. My children recommended your programs to me, and they touched my heart. I’m starting to understand why I’ve felt so alone.” Please pray for Nikolai and his family as they are beginning their journey to Christ.

Please pray for members of the FEBC-Ukraine team who are separated from their family members. Many have been separated from spouses, children, and other family members for weeks or months. Please pray for grace for relational strength and health, and for the separation to end soon.

Please pray for listeners like Natasha, from Ukraine, who became a Christian after one of FEBC-Ukraine’s women’s meetings. “Your programs, and that meeting, changed my life. Now I’m studying at a Bible school and I’m serving in church.”

Please pray for FEBC-Russia’s broadcasts for the Russian youth. Many young people are feeling lost, and increasingly hopeless as the situation with the war continues. And the risk of being drafted and having to fight in the war are increasing. This is leading many to begin thinking seriously about God and about the meaning of their lives, and many are coming to Christ.

Please pray for listeners like Elena, who called FEBC’s follow up evangelists after visiting a city in Ukraine that was under heavy fire with her daughter. “We were so scared,” she said. “There were so many rockets. I can’t believe I put my daughter in danger like that.” Elena prayed with FEBC’s evangelist and decided to read the Bible for the first time. “I have a Bible at home, but I’ve never read it. Thank you for helping me.” Please pray for Elena as she begins her journey to Christ.

Please pray for members of the FEBC-Ukraine team who will be traveling. There is always an added layer of danger while travelling, and possible problems with the freedom of moving around. Please pray for favor and safety.

Please pray for listeners like Arsenie, from Russia, who almost died from his drug addiction. “I went to a Christian rehab center—that saved my life. I became a Christian there, and that’s where I started listening to your programs. The Bible was so confusing, so complicated. But you helped me understand it. You talked about how to live the Christian life. You helped me so much. Thank you!” Please pray for the many listeners dealing with drug addiction. FEBC-Russia partners with many Christian rehab centers, providing them with programs for the patients to listen to.

Please pray for the young women who are coming to FEBC-Ukraine’s women’s meetings. Listeners are able to meet broadcasters and pay and ask questions in person. Lives are being transformed, and people are putting their faith in Christ.
