Prayer Calendar for Dean and Joan Chollar and Crossway International
August 2010
www.gocrossway.org

No, O people, the Lord has told you what is good, and this is what he
requires of you: to do what is right, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with
your God.
–Micah 6:8, NLT

August 1– Pray for Dean as he will be preaching in Stanwood, Washington in
the church where Jason, his son, serves as the Worship Pastor.  Pray that
hearts will be challenged.

August 2 – Pray for Dean as he returns from Washington, and that God might
bring him in to contact with someone who needs Christ.

August 3 – Pray for Bob Nicol, our Engineer for our new branch ministry
within CrossWay International, the CrossWay Water for Life (water well
drilling ministry). We are looking to the Lord for his personal support and
costs for such things as traveling to Kenya to receive our new drilling rig
which is being shipped in a large container.  Also, we have around $55,000
of the needed $65,000 to complete Phase One of this ministry. The $10,000
lacking is for shipping costs, some other equipment, and materials and set
up costs in Kenya.  (To read more about this ministry, please go to

August 4 – Continue to pray for our 549 orphans in Sudan. The 15 which had
malaria have all recovered, and support for their food supply is drawing
down.  But they are now harvesting some of their own food which they have
grown.

August 5 – Pray for Merle Admire, our Master Electrician, who is working
with our water well drilling ministry as he considers focusing a bit more in
Central America. (See prayer request on Aug. 10, too)

August 6 – Pray for greater boldness for each of us as we have opportunity
to share the free gift of salvation through faith in Christ alone.

August 7 – Pray for Bruce McIntosh; he is looking to the Lord for His
guidance and support to serve as a missionary with us and serve as a
Christian Counselor and teacher at our Pastors’ Conferences.

August 8 – Pray for Rafa Rivas, our Field Director for Central America, and
the critical role he has in our ministry in setting up pastors’ conferences
and evangelistic efforts. Pray too for his support needs, as he is a
faith-based missionary… as are all with CrossWay International.

August 9 — Pray for Francisco Caldera, whom we hope to appoint as our
Nicaragua Field Director to work with Rafa Rivas, our Central America Field
Director. He would assist Rafa in setting up evangelistic efforts and head
up our water well drilling ministry there.

August 10 – 16 – Pray for Dean and the mission trip to Nicaragua with 3
pastors and Merle Admire. We will be conducting a pastors’ conference and
researching other evangelistic possibilities, as well as opportunities for
some water well drilling in this area.  Rafa and Francisco will be assisting
us.

August 17 – Pray for more laborers for our evangelistic work in the various
countries in which we are active. The Harvest is great but the laborers are
few.

August 18 – Pray for our coworkers in Sudan who care for our 549 orphans:
Managers, Pastors Samuel and Moses; 10 teachers for our school; Committee of
5 who oversee the funds, and the cleaning ladies and guards.

August 19 – Pray for the physical harvest of crops in Sudan to help feed the
orphans this year and that they might be able to assume more and more
responsibility as we make efforts to move them to a self-sustaining
position. Pray for the spiritual harvest as well.

August 20 – Pray for more opportunities for each one of us to share the
gospel of God’s grace and the free gift of eternal life through trusting in
Christ alone.

August 21 – Pray for Ken Gatithi, our manager of our ministry in Kenya who
is overseeing the development of our water well drilling ministry in
northeast Africa. His wife, Winnie, is expecting in a few months, so he has
his plate full!

August 22 – Pray for Dean as he preaches at NW Church in San Antonio and
challenges hearts for missions and evangelism.

August 23 – Pray for Geoffrey Ndungu, our superintendent of the field work
of drilling water wells in Kenya and surrounding countries. He recently lost
his wife and has two teenage kids.

August 24 – Pray for our NGO status in Kenya so we might legally function in
this country and possibly get tax-exempt privileges to help us do even more
for the Lord’s work.

August 25 – Pray for Sherry Zule, the manager over our CrossWay Coffee
Ministry.  She works very hard to help us raise awareness for our ministry
needs, especially for the needs of the orphans, and looks to the Lord to
raise up the needed funds. This ministry continues to provide a large
portion of this need for our orphans. Thank you to all who order our coffee
(www.crosswaycoffee.org

August 26 – Pray for our many supporting churches and for our many prayer
partners who give generously to keep us moving forward. We make a great team
and couldn’t do what God allows us to do without this team work.

August 27 – Pray for the clarity of the gospel, that we who trust in Christ
might clearly convey the gospel, the fact that all our sins are freely
forgiven when one puts their trust in Christ alone, who died for our sins
and rose again.

August 28 – Pray for the various pastors’ conferences on the drawing board
for the coming year, which we hope to develop alongside of our evangelistic
outreach events.

August 29 – Pray for Fernando Diaz and his work in Spain and Central America
and how we might work more effectively together in the coming year.

August 30 – Pray for the spreading of the gospel and the safety of those who
take the gospel into difficult and hostile areas of the world.

August 31 – Pray for someone you know right now who needs to hear the
message of God’s love and grace and how God might use you as an instrument
in His hand.
