Thank you for joining us this month as we take up “The Invitation” and join together with thousands of YWAMers from around the world as we pray and hear from God. This month we will be praying for Venezuela.

The Invitation, January 9, 2025

The election in Venezuela on July 28 of last year has left many Venezuelans feeling sad, angry, and afraid for their future. In the midst of the uncertainty YWAM continues to train young people in missions, provide help to hurting people, and to care for vulnerable children.

Topic suggested and written by Daniel Leones in Mexico. Photo of a protester in Maracaibo, Venezuela by Jim Romero on Unsplash. The sign says “I am liberator.”

Please take a moment right now to pray for Venezuela and YWAM’s work there, and please also pray with us on January 9, the prayer day for YWAM’s prayer initiative called The Invitation.

Listen to the Letter

Pray for Venezuela. The government instability affects every area of society so that for many people fleeing from the country becomes a better option than staying.
Pray for Venezuela’s churches: for awakening, for hope in Christ. Also, pray for more young people who are willing to get involved in missions, and not only to migrate for economic reasons.
Pray for God to raise up peacemakers. James 3:18 says that peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.
Pray for YWAM ministries. Pray for more full-time staff. Some specific requests are funds to repair the buildings of Casa Hogar and YWAM Caracas. YWAM Casa Hogar needs food and medicine for their children’s ministry. YWAM Publishing asks for prayer for their literature distribution nationwide.

Take Action

If you sense God calling you to get involved in Venezuela, there are many opportunities to volunteer, join staff or to send outreach teams. Two of YWAM’s locations are: Puerto la Cruz: [email protected]. Instagram: @ywamplc. JuCUM Bolívar: https://ywambolivar.org/. Instagram: @ywambolivar.
