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
Give thanks for the Board members who give their time and expertise to our cause. May God give them wisdom as they strive to develop our work according to our new strategy.
Tuesday
We thank for the volunteers who give their time to different tasks and for the individual donors who have supported our work for many years. Pray that we could find new ways to reach new volunteers and supporters to help us to increase our contribution to people and communities affected by leprosy.
Wednesday
Please pray that we could find new, innovative ways to use the communications and fundraising tools and channels already at our use. Pray that we could find ways to inspire younger generations to engage in the work for people affected by leprosy.
Thursday
We thank for the many years of cooperation with the TLM DR Congo. We pray for peace for the country which has suffered from many years of devastating violence and conflict and ask the Lord to protect the local staff in South Kivu and strengthen them in their demanding and precious work.
Friday
We thank for the invaluable support the Andreaskyrkan continue to give us. May the Lord bless their staff and the amazing work they do among their parish members and by serving some of the least privileged people in our capital.
Saturday
We thank for other congregations which target collections and donations to leprosy work. May God help us to better advocate our cause so that many more could be moved to donate and pray for our work and that of the entire Global Fellowship.
Sunday
We thank for the interest of the Congolese community in Finland to support work in the DR Congo. May the Lord give us wisdom for establishing collaboration with them. Please pray for other similar opportunities to open for us as well.
About TLM Finland
TLM Finland is a small team of volunteers. We publish material in Finnish and Swedish and present our work in public events. Many in Finland believe leprosy to belong to the past. Younger generations have not even heard of it.
We are grateful for our partnership with the Swedish speaking Evangelical Free Church in Helsinki, Andreaskyrkan. Thanks to them, a wonderful fundraising concert was arranged in October 2024 to celebrate TLM’s 150th anniversary. We hope for other fruitful partnerships to open with other churches and congregations.
We support leprosy work in in DR Congo. We look forward to possible collaboration with the Congolese community in Finland, who have expressed interest to support the work in the DRC through us.
In 2025 we approved a new strategy and a new fundraising strategy and hope these guidelines will help us to develop our work, to attract new donors and to increase our contribution to the global efforts aiming at ending leprosy transmissions and discrimination.
