Prayers
Please pray for our mission partners at Challenge Ministries Swaziland as they grieve the tragic loss in a car accident of a family and one of the older boys from Bulembu, their orphan village.
Please pray for children and families as they start to hear about our St Mungo’s Christmas events – that they would be able to make plans for inviting friends.
