News from Madagascar-FJKM Ministries and A Conversation with the Turks
Dan and Elizabeth Turk, mission co-workers who serve with partner church Fiangonan’i Jesoa Kristy eto Madagasikara (FJKM) in Madagascar, recently shared the following prayer requests:
We would like to share some prayer requests for our partner church, the Church of Jesus Christ in Madagascar (FJKM). FJKM is in the midst of its Synoda Lehibe (equivalent of General Assembly). It will conclude August 18th. Attendees have traveled from all over Madagascar to participate. This meeting is usually held every 4 years but was postponed for a year due to COVID-19. FJKM will begin electing its 100-member National Council on Monday and will conclude with the election of its officers on Wednesday. FJKM will also set its priorities for the next 4 years.
Please pray for the FJKM’s Synoda Lehibe – for safety in travel, protection from COVID-19, God's guidance in decision-making, and as it moves forward after the Synoda Lehibe.
