PRAYER REQUEST: update on Jordanian family forced to flee their country
Jordanian Christians Ramzi and Mona were forced to leave their country in March. They have now left the Arab world and applied for asylum in a European country.

 

 

 

Greetings in the name of Jesus, the Good Shepherd

 

On 28th March we requested prayer for Jordanian Christians Ramzi and Mona who had been forced to leave their country. Recall that Ramzi is a Believer from a Muslim Background (BMB) married to Mona, a Believer from a Christian Background (BCB) and they have two children. They fled from Jordan after Ramzi was beaten up and his he was charged before a court with apostasy (i.e. leaving Islam). The father sought custody of Ramzi’s two children.

 

Ramzi and Mona have now left the Arab world and applied for asylum in a European country. This is likely to take at least two years. Meanwhile they are endeavouring to settle into their adopted country, including finding accommodation and schooling for their two children, Joy (11) and Salam (9).

 

Jordanian Christians supporting this family request our prayers that:

a.       Ramzi, Mona and their children will know the Lord’s provision, protection and peace in their new location

b.      They will know the Holy Spirit’s healing physically and psychologically

c.       Their asylum application will be successful

d.      All BMBs in Jordan will know the inner peace of Jesus and live without fear

e.       The Jordanian legal system will be changed to prevent other BMBs being treated in this manner

f.        All officials involved will feel and respond to the love of Jesus
