BMS World Mission
Please join us this week as we lift up the nation of Chad in prayer. BMS supports two different hospitals across the country — please pray that they can keep offering quality healthcare to people in need.
— Pray that patients at Bardaï Hospital will recover quickly and follow the health advice given to them. Pray also that the pharmacy will be able to source the drugs needed to treat the patients.
— Over the last three years Chad has been in a period of political transition. Please pray for political stability in Chad and for an end to violence in the north of the country where Bardaï Hospital is located.
— Pray that God will help BMS identify medical professionals who want to serve at Guinebor II Hospital, near N’Djamena, the country’s capital.
