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
Pray for the continued engagement with New Zealanders on the journey towards our 2035 goal. In faith, as a global organisation, we have committed to bringing an end to the transmission of leprosy by 2035.
Tuesday
Pray that we can increase the impact of leprosy work and support innovation that can accelerate progress and impact. With your support, The Leprosy Mission NZ is able to work in some of the poorest and most remote areas in the world.
Wednesday
Praise God for the ability to reconnect young people who have a heart for mission to our Youth Advocate Scholarship (YAS) Programme 2024. We praise God that these young advocates have taken a leap of faith and have set their hearts on making a difference to serve people affected by leprosy.
Thursday
Praise God for our new open doors, through which we have partnered with the NZ Government to start a new project in Timor Leste. This new project is called Preventative Health and Community Empowerment (PHACE) Programme. We praise God for the smooth rollout of the project and pray it will improve the lives of people affected by leprosy.
Friday
Praise God for the many churches around New Zealand who raise awareness of the Mission’s work and support people affected by leprosy. Pray that we can engage new churches from all denominations and that they will be moved to support the Mission’s work in defeating leprosy and transforming lives.
Sat/Sun
We give thanks for our faithful supporters, who support the Mission’s work prayerfully and financially. May God bless them richly as they continue to bring hope and lasting impact to people affected by leprosy.
About TLM New Zealand
TLM New Zealand is humbled by and thankful for the love and compassion of their loyal supporters. They uphold the Mission's work financially and prayerfully, they give their time so freely to volunteer at the office, and they speak at churches and community groups. More than 12,000 New Zealanders actively support the work of the Mission, and we aim to engage more New Zealanders to realise our global goal of zero leprosy transmission by 2035.
The commitment of our supporters enables lives to be transformed, giving hope to countless leprosy-affected families in Bangladesh, PNG and Bougainville, DR Congo, Ethiopia, India, Indonesia, Nepal and Timor Leste.
TLM New Zealand also partners with The New Zealand Aid Programme (Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade), the Autonomous Bougainville Government, NLR, and grassroots organisations in our implementing countries.
