• Pray for Sri Lanka

Each week throughout 2025 year, Salvationists around the world are uniting in prayer for a particular territory or region of The Salvation Army.

Prayer requests are shared by the focus territory/region to help us pray with precision and power for one another.

This week (10-16 February) we are praying for the Sri Lanka Territory.

The territory is made up of 4667 senior soldiers, 1040 adherents and 1218 junior soldiers. There are 44 corps, 21 societies and outposts, 131 officers (78 active and 53 retired), 1 cadet and 97 employees.

The Territorial Leaders are Colonels Nihal and Rohini Hettiarachchi.

Praise points and prayer requests:

·       New applicants for college – please pray for the 11 applicants who are preparing for the 2026 training session.

·       Children and youth activities – pray for all children and youth activities in the territory, especially Sunday School programs and this year’s Vacation Bible School in all corps.

·       Extension ministry work – out of the eight extension mission points established last year, two have been upgraded to corps status. Let us thank God for this victory and pray for a bold spirit to continue sharing the love of Christ in these areas.

·       Officers’ wellbeing – pray for the spiritual, mental and physical health of all officers.

·       Economic and social wellbeing – pray for the country’s economic and social stability, and for the new government, that they may lead the nation toward a better life for its citizens.

·       South Asia College for Officers (February) – pray for the South Asia College for Officers hosted by our territory in February. May the delegates return to their respective missions with a renewed spirit and boldness to bring more people to Christ.
