TURKS OF TURKEY’S MEDITERRANEAN REGION. “In our city, water is diverted into canals that run through the city, and although it is forbidden, children swim in these canals and many drown each year. Last year, the mayor decided to build swimming pools all over the city so the children would not swim in the canals. Because of this, a new pool was built in an area that is near us, but it is in an area to which we have limited access. For over a year, we have walked the streets of our city in prayer once a month. Having access to many areas of the city has been a part of our prayers. These pools are one answer to those prayers. Already we have been able to meet men whom we otherwise would not have met. Please ask the Father to draw these men and their families to Himself: ‘Father we pray that You will reveal Yourself to these new friends, and that they will come to saving faith in Christ. Lord, may they in turn return to their neighborhoods with the Good News. Father, may the beauty of the Lord our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands for us. Yes, establish the work of our hands.’”
