Pray with us
How you can pray with us
Prayer is central to all that we do. We would love you to be involved in the prayer life of The Leprosy Mission. Each year we produce the ASK Prayer Diary, which provides a global overview of The Leprosy Mission’s work. You can view the ASK Prayer Diary week by week below, download a PDF of the full year, or request a printed booklet.
You can also follow our prayer life through the PrayerMate app, where we provide daily prayer requests for the work to defeat leprosy delivered direct to your phone. Get involved with PrayerMate here.
Monday
Please pray for God's blessing upon people affected by leprosy. For God's protection and wisdom for the workers and volunteers in TLMT India and TLM Nigeria. We pray that all their needs will be met.

We thank God for TLM International and The Nordic Hub Network for all the kind and necessary help given to people affected by leprosy and to TLM Norway. We thank God for the gifts of orthopaedic equipment, and for the treatment and rehabilitation of leprosy patients.
Thursday
Pray for Goodman Qhosholo [Eastern Cape], Elena van den Berg, Lucky Kunene [kwaZulu Natal] and Gundula Koethnig [Mpumalanga], who run leprosy clinics and help people affected by leprosy, which involves long trips on rugged rural roads.

Norway and South Africa
Norway
TLM Norway will primarily focus on raising funds for Nigeria and India this year. We also gather and receive health and medical equipment like orthotic devices and surgical instruments to support surgery and rehabilitation for persons affected by leprosy. This year we plan to send surgeons to implant hip and knee prostheses.
South Africa
We raise funds to provide a range of free services in Southern Africa for people affected by leprosy and their families. We also run RampUp, which promotes the inclusion of people with disabilities in the church.
