House arrest of Christian family in India

On Good Friday local mosque members broke into a Muslim-background believer's house in India, demanding to know why he was not offering Islamic prayers, and dragged him to the mosque.  when he said he would worship no one other than Christ, his father struck him and brought official charges against him.  He and his wife were arrested and held; after about a week they were released, but remain under house arrest.

O LORD, comfort and strengthen them with Your Holy Spirit.  "The great day of the lord is near, near and hastening fast."
