June 2026

• The active engagement of so many young people with PMU missions opportunities. May the Lord develop this heart for missions into future laborers for the gospel.
• Encouraging lab results for Kelly, indicating a good response from radiation.
• Gospel ministry opportunities with Grace BPC, Cincinnati. We had a very encouraging park ministry outing in our community, sharing the gospel with families from many different countries and religious beliefs, and also a fruitful week of VBS with many visitors.

• Continued wisdom and guidance for decisions regarding the  plan to treat Kelly’s cancer. Kelly completed radiation in May and as mentioned, labs indicate good response, but the follow up CT scan is not until August to see the results. There are still medication decisions to be made as well.
• Casey as he leads both the English Camp Team to Brazil and Team Timothy to Unionville, NY this summer. Pray for physical endurance with all of the travel and more importantly, that the gospel would go forth and be effective in the hearts of those who hear it.

Thanking God for:

• The growth of the church. By God’s providence, we now have a total of seven church plants.

• The good news we received when the final examination results for the orphanage home children were released. All of the children passed their exams. We are thankful for God’s blessings and faithfulness.

Please Pray for:

• The children at the orphanage home as they begin the new academic year (2026-2027). Pray for their spiritual growth, physical health, education, and financial provision, that they may remain safe and well cared for.
• Our BP church members, as many are facing great challenges in daily life.
• Myanmar, for protection for displaced individuals, an end to armed conflict, the restoration of peace, and strength for believers who continue to face persecution and hardship.

Pray for the Unreached in India:

Population of 1.47 Billion

2,263 Total People Groups

2,033 Unreached People Groups (89.8%)

The Dubla Talavia People

The Dubla Talavia people live in the Gujarat state in western India with a population of 294,000. Their main language is Dubli.  Their largest religion is Hinduism (99.8%).  The New Testament has been translated into Dubli and is available in print and audio formats.

Please Pray for:

• Faithful laborers to bring the gospel of Jesus Christ to the Dubla Talavia.
• The Old Testament to be translated into the Dubli language.
• Literacy levels (currently about 10%) to increase so that the Bible can be read.
• God’s saving grace to bring the precious souls of the Dubla Talavia out of darkness into the light of Christ.

* Statistics taken from joshuaproject.net

* As part of PMU’s emphasis on Unreached People Groups, we will periodically be emphasizing specific UPG’s for prayer.
