Pray for   PAKISTAN

Pray for the situation in Faisalabad where brothers Rashid Emmanuel, a pastor, and Sajid Emmanuel, a graduate student, were shot and killed on July 19th as police were transporting them to jail. Local Christians took to the streets in protest over the incident, prompting calls from mosques for Muslims to come out to “fight rampaging” Christians, and "burn the houses of Christians."

Faisalabad

Give thanks for the calls for justice from Chief Justice of Lahore High Court Justice Mr. Justice Khawaja Sharif, Shahbaz Bhatti, the Minister for Minority Affairs, and President Asif Ali Zardari

Send a card   to   NORTH KOREA

In 1998 Kim Kyung Il became a Christian. He later became involved with sending refugees to South Korea. During April 2002, he was caught by the Chinese police and has been held in prison in China. He is scheduled to be sent back to North Korea when released from prison in China where he will probably be executed.
To know how to send him a card of encouragement contact us.
