Pray with us
According to the founder of The Leprosy Mission, Wellesley Bailey, the Mission was ‘born and cradled in prayer.' We keep that tradition alive today.
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.

About TLM Myanmar
TLM Myanmar (TLMM) works to ensure that persons affected by leprosy and disability are included, valued, and supported across communities. Through partnerships with churches, local leaders, and humanitarian networks, TLMM promotes inclusive development, emergency response, and long-term rehabilitation.
Our orthopaedic and rehabilitation services in Taungoo, Sittwe, and Pakokku and mobile services provide vital care, including prosthetics and assistive devices. We also empower churches to establish disability resource centres and reach out with compassion to those in need.
Through collaboration and shared vision, we advocate for stronger inclusion of leprosy and disability in broader humanitarian efforts.
While the situation in Myanmar is difficult, the promise of God's steadfast love and new mercies each day provides a foundation for hope and resilience. This inspires TLMM to grow and flourish, even amidst the challenges, as we continue to serve persons affected by leprosy and persons with disabilities.
