Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Guayaquil.
Pray for the next person who uses the pictured ATM to come to faith in Jesus.
Pray for the owner of the blue car to do the same.
Guayaquil is the port of departure for many cruises to the Galapagos Islands. Pray for a passenger on one of those cruises who espouses the theory of evolution (the widespread acceptance of which Darwin’s Galapagos trip played a role) to see and accept the truth of the Genesis 1 account of Creation.

Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Trinidad.

1. The pictured building is a social club named the “18th of November.” That date is important in Bolivian history because of an 1841 victory against Peru that solidified Bolivia’s sovereignty as a nation. Pray for a member of the club to personally experience the truth of John 8:36: “Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.”
2. Notice the Coca-Cola emblems that flank the club name on the building. Since WW2, Coca-Cola has successfully spread throughout the world, and is the second most understood term in the world (the first being the word “okay”). The company’s goal is that their product will be “within arm’s reach of desire” to everyone. North Korea and Cuba are the only countries that do not sell Coca-Cola, although it is still smuggled in secretly. Interestingly (since we are praying for a Bolivian city today), in 2012 Bolivia’s foreign minister tried to ban Coca-Cola as an effort to stop Western influence, but was unsuccessful. Like the Coca-Cola company, Christians have a global mission. It is worth taking the time to look up Paul’s words in Acts 17:27, and note how they compare to Coca-Cola’s stated goal. It is sad that more people in the world know about Coca-Cola than know about Jesus Christ. Pray for this to change, and for the gospel to permeate even restricted areas.
3. Trinidad is the Spanish word for “Trinity.” Pray for Christians in the city to have a clear understanding of the Bible’s teaching on the Trinity.
Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Copiapo.
1. Pray for a family who will enjoy supper tonight at the pictured Pizza Hut to trust Jesus, that they may also one day enjoy supper together at His house.
2. Pray for a Christian kid who struggles with the concepts of mercy and penance to accept practically what he knows is true about God.
3. Near Copiapo in August of 2010, 33 miners were trapped 2,300 feet underground and 3 miles away from the copper mine’s entrance. Amazingly, they all survived for a record 69 days until being rescued. Pray that any of them who are still alive today will accept Jesus’ offer of eternal rescue.

Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Jicalapa.
This photo is interesting, because zooming in to the sidewalk-inscribed compass rose near the top center, and comparing that with Google Earth’s compass in the lower right corner, reveals that the concrete-inlaid compass rose does not align with the actual cardinal directions. Pray for someone living in Jicalapa who has a form of Godliness, but whose life evidences a void of God’s actual power, to change that today.
El Salvador means “the Savior.” Pray for the Savior’s message to be proclaimed and received in Jicalapa.
Pray for anyone wearing a pearl necklace in Jicalapa today to realize how valuable she is to the Lord, and to love Him in return.

Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Tegucigalpa.
The above statue of the resurrected Christ was completed in 1998, and, at night, is visible to 60% of the city’s population. Pray for someone seeing it this evening to come to Jesus, as He invited all to do in Matthew 11:28-30.
Tegucigalpa means “place of residence of the noble,” and is the capital of Honduras. It can also be translated “place on the home of the beloved master.” Pray for 5 people to receive salvation today, that their hearts may become Tegucigalpa.
Pray for the Wonderful Counselor to be glorified this Christmas season.

Pray for the Lord to encourage a Christian handicapped passenger with the truth that He will make all things new for him/her one day.

Pray for the Word of God to be widely circulated in Antigua.
Pray for anyone in Antigua with Ukrainian or Russian relatives to turn to Jesus during this time of turmoil.

Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of Jacinto Auraz.
Photo from Google Earth.
1. The translated name of this corner bookstore is “Stone Books.” It opens for business each weekday morning at 8:30. Pray for the person who will open the store this morning, that whatever is going on in his life will be used by God to point him to the Savior.
2. Jacinto Auraz has a population of about 2,500 people. Pray for the youngest child there who is learning how to play a musical instrument from a family member, that both the child and the teacher will come to know the music maker Who brings joy that nothing can take away.
3. As one of its tourist attractions, Jacinto Auraz has a Museum of Rural Medicine, honoring a famous doctor (Dr. Rene Favaloro) who began his practice there. Pray for a tourist visiting the museum to look to the Great Physician for healing of the soul.
Pray for the Lord to send out workers to the harvestfield of San Jose.
When Jesus saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion because they were as sheep without a shepherd. Pray for the people who live within this picture to be introduced to the Good Shepherd.
Pray that actors/actresses in the city’s theaters will come before God without pretense, freely admitting their need for Him.
Named by Christopher Columbus, Costa Rica means “rich coast.” Pray for God to bless the efforts of His churches there, that many people may be rich in the things of the Lord.
