Pastor Kidnapped, Convert Attacked

September 21, 2011

A house church pastor in IRAQ was recently kidnapped by Muslims. He had helped to lead many former Muslims to Christ. Recently one of these new converts was also attacked. The Muslim background believers home was sprayed with machine gun bullets.

Pray for the release of the pastor. Ask God to give him, his family, and the Muslim background believers' courage to persevere. “Yet when they turned and cried to You, You heard from heaven, and many times You delivered them according to Your mercies.”
