Dear Christian Friends,
I really need your prayers. I want the Lord to help with funds to complete my research work. I know He is a Great provider. He has been providing for me ever since I became a refugee and I know He will never let me down.
I am a Liberian refugee in Ghana and by God's grace I started Christ Agape Chapel, a church at the Buduburam Refugee Camp in the Central Region of Ghana to reach out to my fellow refugees with the Gospel of our and Savior, Jesus Christ. By God grace I have over 100 persons every Sunday morning. The Lord has in need been good to me.
In order to be effective in the Lord's call, I started doing a Master of Arts Degree in Christian Organizational Leadership in my former school (where I got my Bachelor of Arts Degree in 1998), Ghana Seminary College and Seminary. However, since I completed my taught courses last year (2006), I have tried to get funding to do my research project, but I have not gotten help from anywhere. I got no other job besides pastoring this refugee church for which I receive no pay. It's a sacrificial job but I love it because the Lord has called me to do it..
Nevertheless, Please pray with me that the Lord will touch the hearts of people who will be able to help me to complete my studies as I plan to return home (to Liberia) next year when I complete my research work. My plan is to plant churches in Liberia. The amount needed for this research work is four hundred and sixty ($ 460.00) USD.
Please share this prayer request with other members of your congregation so that they too will bear me up in prayers. I know there is power in prayer. In Acts chapter 12, the church ernestly prayed for Peter when he was arrested and put in prison and the Lord heard them and Peter was delivered.
May God richly bless you as you labor in pray for God's favor upon my life. I know the Lord will surely answer.
Thanks,
Philip
