Ninety percent of Kabardians were killed or expelled from their ancient Russian homeland. Many survivors of the wars left and settled in the Ottoman Empire, now Eastern Turkey. Most Kabardians make their living by agriculture, raising animals. Some educated Kabardians work as teachers, administrators, and in finance. Kabardians are plagued by an encroaching attraction to radicalism among their youth. Attacks and counterattacks between rebels and military/police claim innocent lives and exacerbate instability and bitterness in the region. Most Kabardians have never heard a clear presentation of the Gospel. Father, we ask You to bring healing and restoration to the Kabardians through Your Spirit and Your Word. Reveal Yourself to the Kabardians in undeniable ways. Bring stability to the region and call many Kabardian youth to be catalysts for disciple-making movements.

Steve and Priscila Dye (Tenerife) request prayers for the following:
- Wildfires in NE Tenerife and the damage that has been done. Incredibly grateful for the prayers and messages of encouragement received during the week of the fires. Pray that this brief crisis will provide opportunities to share God’s love and message of hope with many.
- Please pray for son Michael as he has had a rough start of the semester. He has been feeling a little overwhelmed with RA duties, work, and studies. He also got COVID.
- Praise and prayer: Priscila was able to visit her mother in Portugal. She had not seen her since before COVID, and she thought this may be last chance to see her before she returns to Venezuela. Her mother has been trying to get her legal Portuguese papers so she can travel throughout Europe and visit in Spain.
- Pray for Eduardo and Karla as they are expecting their first baby. It has been a difficult pregnancy and the doctors have scheduled an early delivery.
- Praise: Steve and Priscila celebrated their 26th anniversary.
