SUMMER CHILDREN’S WORK
Please pray for the children’s work during the Summer holiday months. So far, we have been able to assist the Cookstown, Mullaglass, Comber, Ballygowan and Aghalee churches as they conducted their Holiday Bible Clubs and children's missions in June and July. We are delighted to report that as well as many new children in attendance, several boys and girls have been saved during this time. Many thanks to all who gave of their time to make these meetings the success that they were.
During the sunnier days we have been able to make use of a brand new gazebo, gifted to us, to conduct pop-up gospel meetings for boys and girls in various housing estates. We offer a big thanks to all those who helped us out in this venture.
We thank you for your prayers for the United Children's Camp which was held during the first week of August over at the Moyallon Activity Centre. There were approximately 50 children in attendance and we had a really great time. The camp was led by Rev McKee and his wife Hannah, and I was delighted to join with Esther Hanna, Andrew Irwin, Joyce Walsh, Christina Logan, and Ben Harris to be a part of the team that brought God's Word to the children day by day.
As the summer draws to a close, we would value prayer for some remaining HBCs and missions still to come in Aughnacloy, Comber, Cookstown, Bangor, Markethill and Kilkeel.

ROBERT'S PRAYER UPDATE
With the new term of school recommencing, we are still unable to conduct assemblies indoors. However, several schools have permitted us to set up outside with a large gazebo and ground sheet to conduct several assemblies back to back, class by class. So far these have been very successful, with the principals and staff all very appreciative of this little glimpse of normality. Prayer request: pray for favourable weather even into the winter to allow the assemblies to continue.
Many of our children's meetings have also started back and it has been a joy to be invited along to speak at the first night of some of them throughout our churches. Prayer requests: Pray for no further disruptions to any of our children's meetings.

Please pray:
- That soon the school and churches would be open
- That we would know the Lord’s help and wisdom at all times
- For the local people, who are struggling due to the circumstances
- That many will turn to Christ as their Saviour
Praise the Lord:
- For all the help given so far in challenging circumstances

PRAY FOR YOUTH MEETING
On Saturday 14th August Rev Kyle Graham and Rev Philip Gardiner will be addressing a youth meeting in Pakistan. 100 young people are expected to attend, many of whom are not converted. Please pray that the Lord will give help in the preaching and translation, and precious souls will be won for Christ.
