Arrest for Distributing Bibles

Africa
Sudan

July 10, 2011

In SUDAN in May, a woman was arrested for possessing and distributing Bibles in a refugee camp. She is accused of converting Muslims to Christianity. She could also be tried for apostasy (leaving Islam), which is punishable by death.

Ask God for her freedom, and pray that her persecutors will see God's love through her. “...that you may know what is the hope to which He has called you.”
