May 1 - Praise for the Yautepec Zapotec

Do you ever wonder if your prayers have any effect? Your prayers were, and continue to be instrumental in the lives of the 400 Yautepec Zapotec in Mexico. They were on this list last year as a group with less than 2% of their population as believers in Jesus Christ. However, they have recently been adopted by a church in the USA, and as a result of this engagement, God’s Spirit is moving among them. While they continue to need prayer and the initial numbers are small, the gospel is beginning to bear fruit among them! Please pray for the new believers and ask for lasting eternal fruit as a result of the new engagement of the Yautepec Zapotec. Pray for the USA Church to be able to find ways to share the Gospel with these people.

As you praise God for His work among the Yautepec Zapotec
1. Ask the Father to raise up more workers to take the gospel to them
2. Ask God to raise up people of peace who will give gospel workers access to their people
3. Ask for open access, as many groups are suspicious of evangelicals
4. Ask for His Holy Spirit to prepare their hearts to receive the gospel
5. Ask that God would highlight those who have immigrated to the USA to churches so that they can be evangelized, discipled, and mobilized to reach their people, both in the USA and Mexico.
