Last month, we prayed for 44 Christians arrested in Eritrea. While we do not have an update on their situation, we’d like to share with you the testimony of how God sustained one Eritrean prisoner recently released: At age 21, Twen Theodros had only believed in Jesus two years when she was arrested for attendingContinue reading “Torture Could Not Shake This Eritrean’s Faith”

Where Knowing Christ is Dangerous
For billions of people across the areas colored red in this map below, fear and uncertainty are a constant reality. Christians and even seekers asking questions about Jesus are severely persecuted, often by beatings, imprisonment or death. And yet, in Christ alone is LIFE. “As for us, we cannot help speaking about what we have seenContinue reading “Where Knowing Christ is Dangerous”
Freddy Ravages Malawi and Mozambique
After traveling 5,000 miles across the Indian Ocean and slamming Madagascar and Mozambique a couple of weeks ago, Cyclone Freddy twisted around to plow into Mozambique a second time this weekend, killing at least 20 (as of 3/16) people before moving on to Malawi, where around 200 (3/16) have died, and the numbers continue toContinue reading “Freddy Ravages Malawi and Mozambique”
Dinner and a Prayer
March 23 – April 21 we will embark on a journey here at the Prayer Wall praying through every nation for every heart to awaken to God’s love.

Longest Storm Strikes Madagascar and Mozambique

Urgent Prayer Request for a Brother in Africa
We just received word yesterday from brothers and sisters in East Africa that a Christian convert from another religion was beaten by extremists and has sustained head injuries. A warrior from another tribe who works as a security guard rescued him and is now hiding him. Join us for 30 Days of Prayer for Global Awakening MarchContinue reading “Urgent Prayer Request for a Brother in Africa”
Guardians of What Matters Most
Often, what seems so important to us in the moment isn’t actually what matters most. I had a dream that I was watching over a people as “guardian of the heart of what matters most.” But I had grown weary in the task. They didn’t want the Lord’s protection, and they didn’t want me. HeContinue reading “Guardians of What Matters Most”
Ryan Koher’s Plane Released
We praise God that although missionary pilot Ryan Koher has not yet been released, his plane has! The Cessna 206 was returned to Missionary Aviation Fellowship (called Ambassador Aviation in Mozambique) a few days ago. Although Mozambique is a Christian-majority nation, brutal persecution by Muslim extremists has ranked it one of the most dangerous countries in theContinue reading “Ryan Koher’s Plane Released”
