This last week has been very devastating for Christians. Pray for the Persecuted Church in every corner of the world. Evangelical, Protestant, Roman Catholic and Orthodox affiliated Churches and their members are dying because of their Faith and Love of Christ. 1.

Asking for Prayers
Jul 20
I want to give praise to God and thanksgiving for the prayer concert we had in our community center last Friday. It was the first of its kind in the mobile park and the presence of God was felt by everybody. Because it was such a blessing and the joy of the Holy Spirit was [...]
The Spirit of God has not led me to write on any scriptures lately but He is leaning my heat toward the many crises in the world and the persecutions of people of Faith. What I ask for at this time is aid in praying for some of the things that weigh heavy on my [...]

It is now evident that in the “Free World” Christians are being attacked for their beliefs and their rights, property, and livelihoods are threatened. But it was a shock that a nurse was suspended for offering to pray for a client and now a professional foster parent has been denied to care for children because [...]
Last year the Christians in India were targeted by Hindu and Islamic cults. This year, it seems that Pakistan, Bangladesh and the other sub continent nations are having wide spread abuse against Christians including rape and forcible conversions. We need to keep our prayers going for these nations to abide by international law and human [...]
