Government Tells Church to Close

Syria
the Middle East

October 26, 2010

A new church in SYRIA has been closed by the government. The believers hope to continue meeting, but they are uncertain how to comply with the law.

Pray that God will give wisdom and provide a way for them to continue to worship together. “But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead, the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.”
