Pray with us
How you can pray with us
Prayer is central to all that we do. We would love you to be involved in the prayer life of The Leprosy Mission. Each year we produce the ASK Prayer Diary, which provides a global overview of The Leprosy Mission’s work. You can view the ASK Prayer Diary week by week below, download a PDF of the full year, or request a printed booklet.
You can also follow our prayer life through the PrayerMate app, where we provide daily prayer requests for the work to defeat leprosy delivered direct to your phone. Get involved with PrayerMate here.
Monday
Praise God for increased engagement, activity and prayer last year as we marked 150 years of TLM. It was a blessing to celebrate God’s faithfulness, to thank and recognise the dedication of our supporters over many years and to look forward with expectation as God leads us towards a world without leprosy.
Tuesday
Praise God for those in Northern Ireland who have a heart and passion to care for those affected by leprosy, whether that’s individuals, churches, volunteers or funders. Thank God for their faithfulness in giving and prayer. Pray for a new generation to rise against the injustice of leprosy.
Wednesday
Pray for our staff team as we continue to serve those affected by leprosy. Pray for wisdom as we think of creative ways to reach new audiences across all areas of engagement. Pray for encouragement, perseverance, and unity in spirit and actions.
Thursday
Give thanks for the Godly leadership of our Board. Thank God for answered prayers, as we welcome our new Board Chair and Vice Chair. Pray for guidance in this time of transition in leadership and a leading from God’s spirit as we develop a new local strategy. Pray that those affected by leprosy would remain at the heart of their decisions.
Friday
Praise God for multiple opportunities to travel and visit projects last year. We are thankful for the insight these trips have brought, a deepened heart connection to our cause and a renewed appreciation for the amazing staff across our projects. Pray this passion will spill into our engagement opportunities this year and inspire many to partner with us.
Saturday / Sunday
Please pray for those affected by leprosy in the projects we support. Pray that even from a distance they will feel the support, care and love from Northern Ireland.
About TLM Northern Ireland
TLM Northern Ireland has a small and passionate team of six who work alongside over 200 volunteers. Their aim and heart is to see the voices of those affected by leprosy amplified across Northern Ireland, where many believe leprosy is a thing of the past. They strive to raise prayer support and funds to support projects and those affected in India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Nigeria and Ethiopia. Through fundraising, advocating and developing partnerships, they seek to play their part in ending leprosy once and for all.
To do this they seek to nurture relationships with their existing supporters, churches, trusts, and grant funders, as well as develop new partnerships and acquire new donors. Their main areas of engagement are through speaking opportunities in churches as well as fundraising appeals, updates to their supporters and online engagement. They aim to see growth in these areas and seek new opportunities to share our message in strategic areas of influence.
