Pray for a Family of Believers Who Escaped Islamic Militants

[529] prayers in [30] nations have been posted for Family of Believers.

A Christian family was forced to flee their home in Syria when Islamic militants raided their village. The militants took the family’s belongings, destroyed crosses and demolished their home. The family was among a group of 10 people who walked for days through the wilderness, eating grass to survive because there was no food. They finally arrived in another village approximately 15 miles away, where they met up with a VOM partner who has helped them get into shelter. The family has very little, but refused to give up their faith. Pray for the family, especially their children who are very discouraged by the living conditions.
