Paul Cathey
This Sunday we will host the young adults in our home for pizza and fellowship after church. Pray for the time to be an encouragement to all. There is no ‘young adults group’ at church so this is a first!
The following Sunday I teach the morning message, pray that I and my translator both communicate Gods Word effectively.
That same Sunday Maura along with the Pastors wife and another leader will drive two hours to another city to support a missions team from the US and give a Momco presentation to a group of underprivileged moms. Pray for the missions team to be sensitive and adapt to a very different culture and for the ladies to be receptive to the Word that will be shared.
In mid August we will host a Ukrainian Pastor and his wife. We invited them here to take a break and get some rest. Pray that their time here will be refreshing.
Pray for our upcoming trip to the US (Sept), for the Lord to give us wisdom on our itinerary and that our time would be well spent.
Continue to pray for the Pastors wives retreat in Mexico. There are some challenges but nothing the Lord hasn’t foreseen. Pray for His will to be done and His name to be exalted!
Pray for the Lord to provide for all that He would have us do and where He would have us go.

PRAISES:
Praise the Lord: This past Sunday, during the 15 minute prayer time at the start of service - the Lord answered our prayers!!! Many more people prayed, including the newly saved Linda!! How exciting this is!!
Praise the Lord: Jan is feeling better each day!
Praise the Lord: J & K in Portugal have had some success with the documentation - there is more needed, so please keep praying.
Praise the Lord: The weather the past few weeks has been such a blessing - sunshine, dry and warm days - this has brightened everyone's spirits!!
PRAYER REQUESTS:
- Please pray for Hope Now, an outreach in Harrogate, England. We will be leading the catering team for feeding up to 85 people, one meal for 100+. The team continues to grow!! Pray that we will come up with healthy, inexpensive and easy to make meals for the team. Thank the Lord that we will have a real chef on our team this year! We will be there Jul 27 to Aug 4. Pray for all the teams as they prepare to minister to the people of Harrogate. And we're praying for good weather on the weekend for this outdoor event.
- Please pray for Rick's blood pressure, it is running high at the moment, prayers that it will lower, including taking practical healthy steps - getting better sleep and walking each day - pray that we are diligent in these areas.
- Please pray for Daniel and Angela, from The Venue. Angela is very close to coming to faith, as is her 'atheist' husband, Daniel. Cindy has had many conversations, especially with Angela on Thursdays. She is open, but cautious about coming to faith. Pray that the Lord will give both she and Daniel clarity in their hearts and minds to know the truth of the gospel for themselves.
- For the past couple of months we have been spending the first 15 minutes of Sunday service praying together, since many are not able to make our midweek prayer gathering. Let's continue asking the Lord to give folks the courage to pray out loud and not be intimidated or embarrassed to do so.
- Please continue praying for Jan's health to continue to improve, especially her vision. Thank you.
- Please continue praying for our friends, J & K, serving in Portugal. They still face bureaucratic delays regarding their applications for permanent residency and need breakthroughs with documents. Also, K has two sprained ankles, please pray they continue to improve each day.
- Please pray for a workday we are planning at Elaine's home on August 14 - pray that others from CBV will come alongside her and lend a hand to help and especially to give her emotional and spiritual support.
- Let's continue praying for Kristen as she steps out in faith, trusting the Lord to move here in June 2027 to work with HCF Ireland. There are some major needs to be sorted out, so let's stand with her in prayer and believe in the God of the impossible!
- Please continue praying as Rick is in a unique position with ties to church leaders/ministers from all the different types of churches in Ballymena. And he is praying that the Lord would strengthen him to be confident in taking a more active role in unifying the leaders.
- Please continue praying with Rick for the Lord to fulfil a word He spoke to me: "That the churches in the Ballymena area will be full as He brings people from across the board to faith - male and female; young, old and in between; backsliders, the unchurched and those raised in church." - I want to be prepared for whatever the Lord will bring.
Thank you for praying for the upcoming meetings this week:
Tuesday - Church prayer gathering
Saturday - Steadfast Men's Prayer Breakfast - Stuart is leading the devo for the men
Sunday - The Book of Revelation - "What on Earth is Happening?"
ONGOING PRAYER REQUESTS:
- Your continued prayers for our dear Heather & Jenny are appreciated. Pray they both return to Jesus, their first Love, and to fellowship
- Please continue praying for Connor especially that he would return to faith. We also pray for Ryan that they would use this time locked up to better themselves, get completely clean from drugs and that they would tap into their talents.
- Pray for the drugs issue in Ballymena. News reports have also said that criminals are exploiting the Republic of Ireland's weakness and flooding cocaine into the UK through them and Northern Ireland. Let's pray for this pipeline to collapse and for the freely available amount of cocaine in all its forms to decline in Ballymena.
- Please keep praying for the tinnitus in Rick's ears as there has not been much relief.
Thank you so much for your faithful prayers for us,

Donovan and Caryn Libring
Praise and Prayer Requests:
- Praise God for almost 60 children at our VBS and for God touching their hearts.
- Praise God for a second car that was given to us by a generous friend.
- Praise God for the ability to take a rest after camps and visit our family for the first time in 4 years.
- Praise God for a wonderful church family that supports us and loves on us even when we are so far away in another land.
Please pray for the following:
1. Pray for the opportunities that God is providing for us to share in California at churches, home studies, discipleship groups, etc. while we are back in California on furlough. Pray for God to open up the doors and move the hearts to get behind what He is doing here.
2. Pray for Isabel’s dog bite and stitches to heal up properly and her to be able to get back to being active and even swimming in the pool and going in the ocean with her family and friends. It seems like such a small thing but God cares about the little things that make our children’s time in California blessed.
3. Pray that God would continue to work on our landlord's heart to get her moving on selling us the apartment. She said yes, but she's slow to move and contact our real estate agent. Pray also that God would provide the way for us to finance the purchase as things in Italy are bureaucratically complicated.
4. Pray for Donovan as he plans a missions trip and will lead a small team of 10 or less people to Brazil to minister to our sister church planted in Londrina. Pray for God’s provision for Donovan and each person that feels called to go on the trip. Pray for our team to have servants’ hearts and that we would all minister to the church in Londrina and the people in the community and leave the sweet aroma of Jesus. Pray for salvation and pray for the work in Brazil to move forward.
5. Pray for rest for Caryn and Donovan. Pray we can get sleep which we lack due to constant diabetes care. Pray for the Lord’s grace upon us to enable our minds and bodies to rest as this disease is physically taxing on us as caretakers.
6. Pray for God to continue to help us learn how to better manage our two children's Type 1 diabetes so that they are strong and healthy.
7. Pray for our children’s hearts to want to study God’s word daily and grow in a personal relationship with Jesus. Pray that this desire comes from within them and grows each day. Pray that they make Jesus their own and cultivate that personal time with Him.
8. Pray God would use us on a daily basis where we are and help us to always be ready to give an answer regarding the joy that is within us. Pray that we are given the strength and endurance to be faithful witnesses in this challenging country.
9. Pray for provision for us as a family. We are still not fully supported and ask that you continue to pray that God would bring people to come alongside us and help support this mission God has us on here in Italy in a sustainable fashion.
10. Pray for us as parents to have more patience with our children. Many times when we are tired it leads to us not being patient like we need to.
11. Pray for the children Caryn teaches in Postioma and that God would touch them and give her creative ways to share with them.
12. Pray for Pastor Tyler and the leaders at CC Montebelluna to be strengthened and have God's vision for this precious body of believers and the work He wants to do in Italy.
13. Pray for great revival in Italy and the Lord to use all of His people in this great nation.
14. Pray for us as parents to lovingly guide our children to knowing and following Jesus.
15. Pray for us to be continually filled with the Holy Spirit and that our light would shine bright and be a great testimony in our neighborhood and region.

Stephen & Pat Apple
Serving in Tel Aviv, Israel
Praise:
- Praise the Lord that the new outreach center next to Calvary Chapel Tel Aviv is now open. More people are coming each week to receive a meal, enjoy fellowship, and hear the Gospel.
- Thank God for the successful Discovery Bible Study seminar at Calvary Chapel Tel Aviv. The fellowship hall was full, and it was encouraging to see so many believers eager to grow in God's Word and make disciples.
Prayer:
- Please continue praying for the many discipleship groups in Tel Aviv, Haifa, and Nahariya, that the Lord would strengthen His people, deepen their love for His Word, and use them to make disciples of others.
- Please pray that the municipality will reclassify the new outreach center as a charitable ministry rather than a restaurant, reducing the property's Arnona tax so more resources can go toward ministry.
- Please pray for the peace and protection of Israel as tensions continue along the northern border and with Iran. Pray for the safety of civilians and soldiers, wisdom for Israel's leaders, and that many would come to know Christ during these difficult days.

Serving in a closed country in Asia:
We're starting our annual 5-day kids summer camp today. We're praying that our Good Father would again move by His Spirit during this time - over the kids, parents, coaches and staff. We would love to see the kids have a wonderful and fun time...but most importantly that broken lives would be impacted for His glory. Our greatest desire is that they would come to know our Lord and Savior.

Serving in the Philippines:
Please pray for the Philippines, it's just from one thing to another. After the big earthquake, we had floods, and now we have shooting and killing in the public school. Please pray for the traumatized students, parents and teachers because of the shooting in the school that killed 3 young students. Please pray that their fear will lead them to trust Jesus more.
We have some changes in the school policy that cause our Values Class to be on hold for now. Please pray that we can still share the Word with the students in different ways. Please pray for wisdom, God's guidance and direction how can we continue sharing the Word with Elementary students, up in the mountain.

Kurt & Kendall Kula
We'd like to thank you all so much for praying. The Lord hears and answers. Just a couple of requests we could use some prayer for.
1. Flea infestation - We had to cancel church last week to have our building sprayed for fleas. We are planning to return to meeting there this week. A big part of the problem is that there are about 10 stray cats out back that no one takes care of but they do feed them. Just asking for the Lord's protection and help.
2. Please pray for God's blessing on our Saturday New Believers class and Friday evening prayer time at our house.
3. I recently tore a rotator cuff muscle and will get an MRI next week to assess the damage and whether surgery would be necessary. Feeling a bit defeated by the physical issues. Could really use prayer for this.
4. Georgian Language. - Pray that Kendall and I would be able to grasp, remember and begin to use the things we are learning.
5. Rebekah is getting ready for her last year of college. Asking the Lord for another scholarship to help pay for her tuition next year. He is so faithful. We are overwhelmed by His gracious provision.
Thanks so much guys. Sure do appreciate you.

Hello Everyone standing in the gap. All grace and peace to you.
My heart is heavy and with with great sorry do I share this with you all.
After years of existing the Calvary Chapel in Klagenfurt has cone to an end. Due to reform theology creeping in and choking out love and grace of our Lord.
The blessed and merciful news is that there is a small remnant that are going to continue a home Bible study. This couple were elders in the CCSpittal an Der Drau fellowship years back. Hallelujah!!! Please keep them in your prayers.
The next sorrow and deep pain I share with is of a sister who attended CC Salzburg. She recently took her life. Such great tragedy. Believing in our enemies lies and then coming to such a decision.
Her funeral will be taking place tomorrow. Please keep all in your prayers.
We truly do not fight against flesh and blood. The evil principalities do not take a break.
Thank you so very much for your involvement in this great race of ours. By His truth, grace, mercy, wisdom and might will we come to the end victoriously.
In Jesus mighty name
Hallelujah

Would you pray with us for this outreach. We really appreciate your prayers. Thank you.
This June and July, Pastor Ramsey Vule will lead a mission across South Sudan.
Beginning in the capital city of Juba, he will travel to the growing towns of Mundri and Lui in Western
Equatoria before venturing further into the bush to reach the remote community of Mvolo.
Across these first three locations, Pastor Ramsey will organize and lead four conferences to disciple local
church and lay leaders. In Mvolo, the team will focus on open-air tent revival meetings,
evangelism, and community outreach.
