Two Things . . .

- First, summer is a time when crops grow, so that in fall, there might be a bountiful harvest. Seeds have been planted, God is watering the fields we work. We cultivate, to care for the crops. Soon it will be time for harvest. Today we cultivate God’s fields as we share Christ with those we reach out to, that there might be a bountiful harvest of lives for Christ. In our outreach, God in His Word has made it obvious that we are to reach people around the world for Christ. Please pray – "cultivate" – that the Francophone world might come to Jesus Christ and that the harvest might indeed be “bountiful”.

- Second, please note that as you might be busy, you can now “listen” to the BLF Prayer and Praise E-Newsletter - handy for those with phones and mobile devices on the go, that can read this e-newsletter via the internet. The link is at the top of this e-newsletter. You can also try it - HERE!

May God richly bless you as you pray and praise!

For BLF USA ...

- Please pray for BLF Representatives Russ and Mary Ann Miller as they contact people and churches in the midwest and the Eastern states to arrange visits where they will present BLF's ministries and updates on what the Lord is doing in French-speaking countries. They will be traveling between mid-August and mid-November. Pray that God will open doors for them and keep them healthy and safe as they travel.

- Please pray for the staff of BLF Éditions as they begin the second week of their annual 3-week summer holiday. (This is a national time of vacation mandated by law which they are required to honor.) We ask for continued travel mercies and for meaningful time with friends and family.

- This week our prayer focus is Luxembourg. We ask that you pray for Henri, Grande Duke of Luxembourg and Xavier Bettel Prime Minister. Part of Europe, Luxembourg is a parliamentary democracy with ties to Belgium and the Netherlands. Nearly half of the population are expatriates. Even though the majority profess Catholicism, few regularly attend mass. Pray for unity among the 20+ evangelical churches there – that they would gather together at times to pray for one another and to worship. Evangelical groups tend to be viewed as “cults” by government and society, making it hard for them to rent buildings and to openly evangelize. Pray for believers to creatively share the gospel and ask God to open hearts to His love.
