Pray

How can I pray for Burundi?

Like any nation, Burundi’s needs are varied and complex, but we’re always encouraged to hear so many stories of lives transformed through answers to prayer. We totally believe that prayer is the most important reason why GLO’s work is so blessed and fruitful, so every prayer
offered up in Jesus’ name is heard and valued! Below are some key areas that are always good to pray for, but if you’d like to hear more up-to-date requests and stories, we’d invite you to join us in two key areas.
