Vrystaat Nuus/News envisions a community in the Eastern Free State
in which people of different backgrounds and ­languages are informed about their
community and its needs.

The
newspaper publishes a weekly prayer list. 

This week’s list is
dedicated to:

  • freedom
    of religion in South Africa and in those countries forced to follow religions
    that are not their choice (especially North Korea);
  • students returning to tertiary
    institutions – to be free to study without riots and fear;
  • employees at local, provincial and
    national government level, to learn to work ­focused on their duties and
    communities, not themselves;
  • good mentorship to be provided to new
    interns who are doing their community service at healthcare institutions;
  • the healing of stereo­types between
    different churches;
  • the land to be healed of too little or
    too much rain and for drought-relief initiatives to be free of corruption;
  • world leaders to respect ­people and
    nature;
  • people who are alone and do not have
    family or friends;
  • the safety of women and children
    affected by poverty;
  • the hope
    that all will see who Christ really is and expe­rience Him; and
  • the belief in Jesus to fix problems in
    the world.
