Christian Prisoner Dies

Eritrea

July 30, 2010

In ERITREA, a young Christian woman died after refusing to recant her faith. She and other university students had been imprisoned in a metal shipping container because they attended a Bible study. She suffered the freezing cold of night, the baking heat of day, and untreated illness.

Praise God for her faithfulness, and pray for her grieving friends. “You have given the command to save me, for You are my rock and my fortress.”
