Challenges for Prayer
Evangelical vision is growing. Despite being small in number (only 2,000 regularly attend an evangelical church), evangelicals in Seychelles have a large vision. All evangelical groups share the goal of saturation church planting throughout the country. Pray for this vision to have a powerful and positive impact on the spiritual life of the nation.
For an additional 3 Challenges for Prayer see Operation World book, CD-ROM, or DVD-ROM.
