August 2026 Prayer Requests

Thank you so much for your continued prayers and faithful support. Here is how you can lift up Seed Effect this month.

Praise!

  • We give thanks for our donors and partners, whose generosity has made it possible for our teams to keep walking alongside Seed Effect Members in the hard places!
  • We are so grateful for the more than 137,000 families we have served since launching in Uganda in 2017, and we praise God for his provision!

Seed Effect Uganda and South Sudan

  • Pray that God will bless the work of our hands, granting our teams wisdom, integrity, creativity, and excellence as they serve vulnerable communities.
  • Pray that our programs will transform lives, strengthen livelihoods, and bring lasting hope to every Member we serve.
  • Pray for our Members across South Sudan as they save and grow together in their Savings and Loan Groups, that God will strengthen their livelihoods and deepen their faith.
  • Pray for our Community-Based Facilitators (CBFs), who walk alongside Members week after week, asking God for endurance, safety, and encouragement in their work.
  • Pray for the health of our staff and their families, that God will protect them from illness, strengthen those who are unwell, and grant them peace and rest.
  • Pray for the spiritual growth of every staff member, that they will remain rooted in God’s Word and reflect Christ in their words, decisions, and daily lives.
  • Pray for God’s peace to prevail in nations affected by war, conflict, and political unrest, especially for the growing conflict in Sudan, and for refugees and displaced people to know His protection and provision.

Seed Effect USA

  • Pray for the kickoff of our data digitization pilot, that the rollout will go smoothly and give our field teams stronger tools to serve Members well.
  • Pray for Preston Eastwood, our Program Analyst, as he prepares to travel to the field in September for the pilot rollout, asking God for safe travels, good health, and a fruitful time with our teams.
  • Pray for our donors and partners, that God will grant them favor, provide for every need, prosper the work of their hands, and give them continued joy in giving.

Thank you for joining us as we seek the Lord in prayer!

 

“May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us — yes, establish the work of our hands.” Psalm 90:17
