Pray for Medical Care in South Asia

We are continuing our 7 Days of Prayer for International Mission Board Missionaries. Each day, we have received specific information about particular missionaries and the people they serve. So far, we have prayed for Paul Yount and Willie Brown who serve in StoryOne Camps in Africa, Tim and Annie Tidenberg who serve in a pastoral care ministry in West Africa, Don and Pam Lynch who serve in a unique Coffee Bike ministry in Belgium, and Eric and Ramona Reese who serve as church planters in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and Jeri Whitfield who serves in Thailand. Today, we are praying for Cordy and Eloise Lowe. Cordy and Eloise share the gospel and provide medical care in a South Asian village where people are afraid to seek medical care due to a shortage of facilities and it's too dangerous for them to travel to clinics that are too far away.

Lucky is a doctor friend who has helped the Lowes reach groups they would not otherwise have access. Lucky, a local Christian, is working to open a small clinic in his community. He will also serve 7 other villages nearby where there are no other known Christians.

Together, the Lowes and Lucky have hosted medical clinics. The clinics provide opportunities for them to share the good news of Jesus with those who don't know Him. Many of the people who seek medical care at the clinic have never even heard the name of Jesus. The Lowes and Lucky are making a significant impact in the lives of the people they serve in South Asia.

How to Pray for Cordy and Eloise Lowe and Medical Care in South Asia

Here are four specific prayer requests we would like you to consider as you pray for Cordy and Eloise Lowe’s ministry:

1. Pray for the physical and spiritual health of the South Asian villagers they are serving.

2. Pray for the success of Lucky’s clinic and for the safety of all those who seek medical care there.

3. Pray for the safety and protection of Cordy and Eloise Lowe as they continue to travel to these remote villages and share the gospel with those who have never heard it before.

4. Pray that the Lord will continue to provide opportunities for the Lowes and Lucky to share the gospel and that many hearts will be transformed as a result.
