UPDATE: Police are threatening a congregation in TURKMENISTAN not to meet. Their pastor was imprisoned last year and accused of insulting Islam and Muhammad. He is still being denied medical treatment. Police recently told his congregation, “If we find out the church has been meeting, we’ll do the same to you as we did to [your pastor].”

Pray that they will be able to worship freely. “Yours is the day, Yours also the night.”
