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.

Thursday

Pray for all KKM, LPASL, and ADT personnel to be able to perform their duties effectively and efficiently. Pray that they can overcome any challenges they may face.

Pray that our work will lead to early diagnoses and prompt treatment. May God strengthen partnerships with health departments and other government agencies so that we can have greater impact in bringing healing, dignity, and hope to those affected by leprosy.

Saturday

Pray for leadership of the Leprosy People’s Association to have wisdom and provision as they expand their work. Open doors for funding, resources, volunteers, and grant them favour with government officials.

Sunday

Pray for collaborative efforts between ADT, KKM, LPASL, government departments, and other NGOs. Pray that their united work will break down stigma, change attitudes, and create sustainable solutions. Above all, pray that through their service, the love of Christ will shine brightly, bringing hope and transformation to individuals and communities.

Sri Lanka

In Sri Lanka, TLM works with three partners: ADT, KKM, and LPASL through the Collaborative Action in Finding hidden cases & increasing Expertise (CAFÉ) Project. The main focus is on reducing leprosy transmission through training and mobilising primary health workers, midwives, religious leaders and diverse community and business groups including sports clubs, youth groups, bus companies, taxi drivers and barber shops.

CAFÉ works in close partnership with various branches of the Ministry of Health on producing district road maps to tackle leprosy as well as giving technical training to senior government health officers and surgeons. CAFÉ additionally addresses the wellbeing of families affected by leprosy after treatment through training on nutrition and climate resilient agriculture as well as provision of wells for drinking water and irrigation, sanitation and the setting up of village disaster management committees.
