Prayer is one of the main pillars of our work. That is why we mail out an e-prayer letter 6 times per year. Would you join us praying for the Arab World, our projects, people we engage with and, more personally, for our staff?

Subscribe here here to receive the prayer emails.

We call the group of people praying our 'Gideon's Band'. Perhaps you know the story of Gideon who sent many warriors home (22 thousand!) to fight with a small group of 300 (!) men against a huge army of Midianites. Few, but steadfast men were needed to show that strength is not necessarily in numbers. God won the battle for Israel through Gideon with his 'just' 300 men. Presently our Gideon's Band has about 250 faithful prayer warriors - so there is still room for you!
