Editor’s note: During Hispanic Heritage Month, the IMB is highlighting the contribution of Hispanics to global missions and celebrating the growing number of Hispanic churches committed to reaching the nations. Resources about Hispanic church missions efforts are available through the IMB.
During a family meal, family worship, church small group meeting, or your own devotion time, this prayer guide will lead you to pray for the lost and for your missionaries who are steadfastly present among them.
Pray for Adam and Mia
Adam and Mia serve as missionaries among Asian peoples.
- Pray for Adam and Mia as they return to the mission field after about a decade back in the U.S., caring for their parents and serving the church in the U.S.
- Pray for God to be with the family as they reacclimate to the culture and language and get to know their new team.
- Pray for them as they go and support the work their national partners are doing in the area.
- Pray that the family will be well received by the people and will build strong relationships among them that lead to gospel conversations.
Pray for Antonio and Emma

- Pray for their three kids in school, that as they interact with other kids, they’d share the light and love of Jesus.
Pray for Antonio and Ana
Antonio and Ana serve as missionaries among South Asians.

- Pray the family continues to learn and understand their people’s culture and language so they, alongside their national partners, can better engage them in their context.
