On the evening of that first day of the week, when the disciples were together, with the doors locked for fear of the Jewish leaders, Jesus came and stood among them and said, ‘Peace be with you! ’ —John 20:19 Lord Jesus, Emmanuel, we pray against the spirit of fear among your children in Qatar. May all your disciples experience your supernatural presence and peace every day.
The care of children has been the primary responsibility of mothers supported by other women from the extended family. The recent affluence of many Qatari families, however, has provided the opportunity to supplement traditional extended family support by importing nannies and other servants. Many of them are Christians from Asian countries, influencing the little ones with their Christian values and worldview. Many kids are raised on bible stories and songs through the persistent witness of believing nannies. Pray for these nannies to be bold for His name and that they would disciple children into a thriving relationship with Jesus Christ.
