URGENT-Open Doors Email Prayer Alert Hello there, Yesterday, Pastor Bernabel, a church leader from Chiapas, southern Mexico underwent an eight-hour operation to remove a brain tumour. Please do lift Bernabel, his wife and two children to the Lord. Please pray for a speedy recovery so that he can return to his ministry amongst the Tzeltal people. This week, we've also received fresh reports of violence in Indonesia. We need to pray in particular for the situation on the island of Sulawesi. A 3,000-strong jihad (Muslim extremist) 'army' is closing in on 28,000 Christians who have fled their homes and are taking refuge in a small town called Tentena. Since June, the jihad have 'cleansed' the town of Poso and surrounding areas of Christians. Christian leaders say a bloodbath is imminent and fear a 'second Ambon' - an area where thousands and thousands have died in Muslim-Christian conflicts. Open Doors co-workers in the region say we need to pray for a miracle. Thank you for all your prayers. May the Lord bless you. Received via email from: IT @ Masariku@yahoogroups.com |
