This month we are focusing our prayer effects on the drought in the Horn of Africa. The crisis in the Horn of Africa was brought on by two years of drought that is the worst in 60 years. Massive crop failure and loss of livestock have led to extreme food shortages in a region straddling Kenya, Somalia, and Ethiopia. Currently, there are at least 500,000 children across the Horn of Africa suffering from some form of malnutrition. Clean water is another dire need as only 20 percent of the families have access to safe drinking water in some areas.

Please pray for:
1) God's provision in food and resources for these families
2) Christian relief efforts to operate in God's wisdom to help meet the needs of the affected areas
3) Opportunities would increase to advance God's Kingdom through His Word
