"What does it mean to pray without ceasing?" ...
"Paul's command in
1 Thessalonians 5:17 to "pray without ceasing," can be confusing. Obviously, it cannot mean we are to be in a head-bowed,
eyes-closed posture all day long. Paul is not referring to non-stop talking, but rather an attitude of God-consciousness and God-surrender
that we carry with us all the time. Every waking moment is to be lived in an awareness that God is with us and that He is actively involved
and engaged in our thoughts and actions." Read on

For BLF Editions
- Please be in prayer for the pallets of Sunday School materials still waiting to go to Togo and Cameroon.
Pray that God will provide the funds necessary for shipping so the ministries can be ready to receive their books.
- As work begins on expanding the storage area in our warehouse, please pray for safety and wisdom for the workers.
Over the next few weeks, they will be laying a fresh, flat surface of cement so that we will be able to set up new shelves
and use the forklift throughout the first warehouse.

For BLF
Canada ...
- Last week we asked for prayer for shipments to clear customs in Haiti. Praise the Lord! The shipments from both BLF Editions and BLF Canada
have cleared customs and are now in the possession of the French Pastors. God is good!
- Continue to pray for Toe-Blake as he prepares to go on a mission trip to Haiti in early July. During this trip, over a 100 French pastors
are expected to gather for a conference. Books will be handed out, and Toe-Blake will teach a theological course.
- Pray for BLF Canada missionaries Francois and Marie-Paul Bedard as they move to de Beauce.

- Praise God for a productive time of meetings in France and Rory's safe return. Please continue to pray for Muslims during Ramadan.
We're grateful that the Joshua Project has posted

If you know of
French speakers who might want a similar tool, we've translated
the calendar into French (click here). For more prayer fuel, check out

"Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field." (Matt. 9:38)
- Please pray for the different outreach efforts taking place throughout France during the Euro 2016 Soccer Championship (June 10-July 10, 2016).
Some 2.5 million spectators are expected to attend the 51 matches played in 10 French host cities, including two near Marpent (Lille and Lens).
Organizers hope to see churches working together in unity and at least 3000 people come to faith. For more, see Greater Europe Mission's website document:
