Agape Prays and Believes!

1.15.26

We’re grateful for our prayer warriors and faithful supporters. We’re beginning to share monthly praises and prayer requests with you. As you pray with us, we trust that Jesus will continue to do great things through Agape Gospel Mission and the lives we touch.

PRAISES!

Praise | Watch Night-New Years

Our annual Watch Night event at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium was amazing! Thank you for your prayers. God moved mightily in our midst and lives were touched and transformed. We’re already planning for an even bigger impact at the end of this year!

Praise | 2 New Churches

Our two new churches launched successfully on December 7th. Please keep praying for Pastor Shadrack at Zebilla and Pastor Joseph at Kumasi.

Praise | Faith for 2026

2026 is off to a great start, and we are filled with anticipation and faith for a great year ahead!

PRAYER REQUESTS

Pray | New Churches in Dem Rep of Congo

We are launching Pastor Dalton Shamavu into Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo later this month. He is going to DRC to plant Agape Churches and bring Jesus to this incredibly needy nation. Please pray for Pastor Dalton to be safe and to be bold in preaching and ministering to his people. He cannot visit his family in eastern DRC due to the unrest and ongoing tension from the guerrilla warfare that has taken place there. Ask the Lord to guide him as he locates places of worship in the capital of Kinshasa. Pray for many souls to be saved and churches to be established in DRC.

Pray | Agape Building Projects

We currently have five building projects ongoing at our church, our Children’s Home, and our Academy. It’s a lot of work to oversee these five building projects all at the same time, so please pray for us to have grace, wisdom, and strength. Ask the Lord to send us qualified and capable men to help us oversee these construction sites. Pray for all the work to be completed quickly and successfully.

Pray | New Agape Church in Nairobi, Kenya

We are launching a new Agape Church in Nairobi, Kenya on January 18! Praise God for this eagerly anticipated new church. Ask God to bless our work there, and to guide and anoint Pastor Erick Simba and Pastor Omusula.

Pray | Agape Bible College Students

A new semester has begun at Agape Bible College! We’re so excited to receive the new pastoral trainees. Please pray for these men as they prepare for pastoral ministry. Ask God to open their hearts to His truth and His Spirit so that their lives can be fully transformed and their ministries built on the right foundation.
