Bombing Survivor Continues Medical Care

[149] prayers in [11] nations have been posted for Rebecca.

Rebecca survived a 2019 bomb attack on her church in Sri Lanka with burns and injuries that have continued to affect her even as she has joyfully pursued a ministry of music and evangelism. She is undergoing surgery to restore some movement in her hands, and her doctors also found a brain tumor in 2024 that has resulted in more surgery and treatment; even so, doctors say the tumor could return. In a meeting with front-line workers, Rebecca, who married and had one son after the bombing, expressed her faith in God and requested prayer for her total healing from these physical challenges.
