Eritreans Arrested for Prayer

Africa
Eritrea

Seven ERITREAN believers were arrested for praying in a private home. Authorities took them to an unknown location, perhaps to one of the underground dungeons, metal shipping containers, or military barracks where thousands of other Eritrean Christians have been imprisoned for their faith.

Pray that God will comfort these prisoners as they continue to cry out to Him in prayer. “But the LORD has taken you and brought you out of the iron furnace, out of Egypt, to be a people of His own inheritance.”
