PRAYER REQUEST: update on Arab Christian called in by Secret Police
We are pleased to report that the Arab Christian who was arrested and deported whilst working for a ministry in another Arab Country has arrived safely with his family.

Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ, head of the Church

 

On 28th March we asked prayer for an Arab Christian working for a ministry in another Arab country. On 18th March he was arrested and told he would be deported on the 22nd. However, his family in his own country reported that he had not arrived home.

 

We are pleased to report that he has arrived safely and is with his family.

 

Recall that the ministry he worked for has been under significant pressure recently including its sponsoring church being evicted from the premises they have rented for ten years.

 

Middle Eastern Christians thank us for our prayers. They request our continued prayer that:

 

a.       Our brother will adjust to life at home and quickly find a job

b.      The secret police will stop harassing this ministry and church

c.       Christians will not be intimidated but live in the power and presence of Jesus

d.      All officials involved will be exposed to the truth of Jesus and respond to His love for them
