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.

About TLM Niger
TLM Niger operates in the regions of Niamey, Tillabéry, Dosso, Tahoua, Maradi, and Zinder, in the fields of health and socio-economic development.
The team facilitates and supports the work of their implementing partners (CSL Danja and the government) to develop the capacity of health workers to diagnose and manage leprosy, and to provide appropriate treatment so that people can manage their disabilities and have access to specialised care.
The team also builds the capacity of people affected by leprosy and other disabilities through the IDEA-Niger Association. Together, we advance their inclusion and empowerment within their communities and encourage changes that can lead to the elimination of discrimination.
