Nicknamed both “Mother Volga” and the “National River of Russia,” the Volga is also Europe’s longest river. It originates in the Valdai Hills, and empties into the Caspian Sea. Moscow and four other of Russia’s ten largest cities are within the Volga’s drainage basin. Many different ethnicities, such as Slavic tribes, have lived along the river’s banks.
1. Pray for the Word of God to penetrate a Slavic tribe which has been resistant to Christianity.
2. Pray that this Easter weekend will be the date of new birth for someone in Moscow who has been religious but had no personal relationship with the resurrected Christ.
3. Wheat farming and the petroleum industry are major economic contributors in the Volga River valley. Pray for Christian workers in both of these lines of work to be encouraged in their walk with God.
