Pastor Kept in Prison

February 14, 2011

UPDATE: Because of his faith, a pastor was recently removed from a list of prisoners to be given amnesty in TURKMENISTAN. His wife says that she is being followed and that the Bibles she has tried to give her husband are returned by the prison. She says her husband knows much of the Bible by heart and is praying and singing praises, despite his circumstances.

Ask God to encourage him by bringing scriptures to his memory. “Then they left the presence of the council, rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer dishonor for the Name.”
