Christian Families Faithful Under Persecution

[111] prayers in [9] nations have been posted for Christians in Bangladesh.

In the months since protests resulted in a chaotic change of government in Bangladesh, Christians have encountered mounting violence and threats, but a church in northern Bangladesh has demonstrated special resilience. Despite intense persecution, the pastor of the church has discipled 10 other families to stand strong in their faith. These families have been rejected by their community, making it difficult to obtain food and other necessities. Still, their faithfulness has led others in the community to seek them out and bring them needed supplies, creating opportunities to proclaim Christ. Pray for God’s protection over this church amid their trials and for strength and wisdom to overcome each situation in a way that glorifies the Lord’s name.
