Turkey and Syria

World Vision

A series of devastating earthquakes have hit southern Turkey (now known as Türkiye) and north-west Syria, killing thousands of people and injuring many more. Thousands of buildings, including hospitals and schools, have collapsed and infrastructure has been badly damaged.

People have been left without shelter in freezing winter conditions, with humanitarian needs expected to grow in the coming days. Access to clean water will likely be a challenge, bringing the risk of cholera and other diseases.

World Vision is a member of the DEC and, along with others, is taking emergency supplies to those most in need, including food, water, warm blankets, hygiene kits and shelters. There is much to be done in the days ahead, as well as to support the longer-term recovery.

Donate

If you would like to Donate to World Vision’s Turkey-Syria Earthquake Appeal click here

Pray with us

For those who have lost loved ones

Heavenly Father, our hearts are moved by the effects of the earthquakes in Turkey and Syria. The grief felt by families who have lost loved ones, or await news of loved ones, is unimaginable. We turn to you, God of all comfort, and ask that you be close to people in the days ahead and that they might know your peace that surpasses all understanding.

For those who have lost homes

Lord God, we pray for those who have lost their homes or have moved to safety away from tall buildings. Please keep them warm in the midst of this harsh winter and provide all they need. We pray especially for children who are confused and frightened by what is happening. May you be for them an oasis of peace in which to take shelter.

For those providing help

Lord God, we thank you for the swift action of those who are already responding. For the rescue teams searching for survivors, we ask for endurance and resilience. For those providing temporary shelter, we pray for the swift delivery of equipment. And for all those in communities offering comfort and help to their neighbours, we pray that you give them selfless compassion.

For the world’s response

Lord, we pray for world leaders as they decide how to respond. We pray that you stir each of our hearts in generosity towards the people of Turkey and Syria.

Amen.

Equip and Ignite

As followers of Jesus we find ourselves in extraordinary times. We need courage and God’s power to face the challenges and meet the needs around us. This weekend will help equip us in Kingdom ministry and the power of the Holy Spirit. We are delighted to be welcoming Steve Nicholson and Mark Iles to train us.

Steve and Cindy Nicholson, trailblazers from the early days of the Vineyard Movement in the USA, have over 40 years in church ministry. They have decades of wisdom, discernment and practical insight in recognising and stewarding the work of the Holy Spirit. They are passionate about passing this on to the next generation.

Mark Iles has been in prophetic ministry for nearly 30 years. He leads School for Prophecy, teaches at conferences and works with churches in the UK and overseas to provide strategic teaching, prophetic ministry and mentoring support. He and his wife Julie are part of the leadership team at Winchester Vineyard Church.

We hope you will join us for a journey of encounter, challenge and transformation!
