Prayer Requests: December 2025

Living Hope International Prayer Requests

“And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.”
– Ephesians 6:18 NIV

Esperanza Viva

  • We recently welcomed three brothers to the youth home—ages 6, 7, and 12. We are thankful to see them stepping into a place filled with love, stability, and new beginnings. Please pray for each of them, that God would touch their hearts in this season and fill their days with peace, joy, and a deep sense of belonging.

  • Pray also for their caregivers, that God would strengthen them and give them divine wisdom as they learn each boy’s unique personality, needs, and story. Pray that the entire Esperanza Viva community—children, staff, and volunteers—would reflect the love of Jesus to them in every interaction.

Nations School

Education

  • Please pray for our students and teachers as they move toward the end of the semester. Pray for focus, motivation, and a renewed joy in learning. Pray that the classrooms would be environments where children feel valued, confident, and encouraged in both their academic growth and their walk with God. Pray for our teachers and staff, that God would refresh their hearts, give them creative strategies for their lessons, and strengthen them as they invest daily into the next generation.

Living Hope Outreach

  • The outreach center in the village of San Martin Esperillas has become a haven for the families from all around the community. Moms arrive each week with their little ones—babies in arms, toddlers at their side—to hear a Bible teaching, enjoy crafts and games, and receive needed supplies for their families.
    Pray that the impact of these weekly gatherings would continue to grow and that many more families would encounter the hope of Jesus through each visit. Pray for the volunteers who serve faithfully, that God would fill them with joy, unity, and compassion as they pour into every person who walks through the doors.

Nations Ministry Institute

  • Our fall course is winding down quickly, with just a few weeks to go. This season is a crossroads for many students as they seek direction for what God has for them after graduation.

  • Please pray that each student would finish strong, staying faithful in their studies and ministry service. Pray that the Holy Spirit would speak clearly to them about their next steps—whether serving in missions, continuing their studies, stepping into leadership roles, or returning home with a renewed purpose.

Nations Church

  • Our small groups are in full swing for the last season of the year. We are so encouraged to see families and youth opening their homes to share Scripture, pray, and build community together. Please pray that these gatherings would be filled with the presence of God and that hearts would be strengthened in their faith. As we close out 2025, pray that many new people will get connected to the church through these groups and find a place where they can grow, be encouraged, and walk out their faith with others.

Living Hope International

  • Please pray for wisdom and clarity as Living Hope continues moving forward in the projects God has placed before us—child rescue, leadership training, outreach, short-term missions, and the building projects that will help us serve even more people in the future. Pray for unity, protection, and God’s provision over every team and department.
  • As we approach the end of the year, we are also stepping into an important season for our church building campaign. Pray that God would guide every decision, open the right doors, and provide the remaining funds needed through the generosity of people who feel led to be part of what He is building. Above all, pray that each step forward would reflect His heart and make room for more lives to be reached with the hope of Jesus.
