A bomb planted by members of the al-Shabab Islamic terrorist group exploded on Feb. 28, killing seven and injuring more than a dozen others.

Pray for the Christian workers, that the Lord will keep them strong and they will know how best to respond to the situation. Pray that the believers in these areas will grow in their faith despite the threats.”
