I walk the bustling streets of Hyderabad, the heartbeat of Telangana, where centuries of history pulse through the charminar and the spice-laden markets. Around me, the air carries the echo of the adhan from towering mosques, mingling with the clatter of rickshaws and street vendors calling out their wares. Nearly half of my neighbors are Muslim, and I can sense the deep longing in their hearts—a search for peace and hope that only Jesus can bring.

This city is a tapestry of contrasts. I see the gleaming tech offices of HITEC City beside narrow lanes where families struggle to make ends meet. Modern skyscrapers shadow centuries-old temples, mosques, and shrines, reminding me that Hyderabad is a city where the old and new collide—and so do belief and doubt, wealth and poverty, tradition and curiosity.

What weighs heaviest on my heart are the children—so many wandering streets, orphaned or neglected, searching for safety, love, and a future. Yet even here, amid the noise and the struggle, I see God’s hand at work. I see hearts stirring, people beginning to care, and small communities rising to share His light.

I am here to be His hands and feet. I pray for boldness to speak His truth, compassion to care for the forgotten, and wisdom to love my neighbors well. I long for Hyderabad to awaken to Jesus—not just in pockets of the city, but flowing through every neighborhood, transforming lives, and bringing hope where despair has lingered too long.

- Pray for the hearts of my Muslim neighbors in Hyderabad, that they would encounter Jesus personally and know His peace and truth above all else.
- Pray and lift up the children who wander our streets, especially those caught in labor or begging, asking God to place them into safe homes and families that reflect His love.
- Pray for the many leaders and influencers in Hyderabad—business, education, and government—that they would have courage to follow God’s wisdom and impact the city for His Kingdom.
- Pray and ask the Holy Spirit to ignite a wave of prayer across Hyderabad, connecting believers from every neighborhood, language, and background into a powerful, unified movement.
- Pray for boldness and creativity in sharing the Gospel in a city rich with history, culture, and religious tradition, that the Name of Jesus would be lifted high in every community, mosque, and market.
