Pray for Family of Murdered Pastor

[870] prayers in [31] nations have been posted for Lawrence Kazungu Kadenge's family.

Assistant Pastor Lawrence Kazungu Kadenge was murdered in the early morning hours of Feb. 2 while guarding the Glory of God Ministries Church in Mombasa. Although police are still investigating the murder, it is believed that radical Muslims may have killed the 59-year-old assistant pastor for alerting police about security threats and for preaching the gospel close to a mosque. Kadenge’s death has increased fears among pastors in the area. Several pastors have been murdered recently in the Mombasa region, and churches along the coastal area have been attacked by radical Muslims who are trying to create an independent state there.

May we in America STOP taking our freedom for granted by being afraid of political correctness and by accepting in the name of tolerance the evil that is all around us. May we live our faith and bear the fruit of Christ and be fishers of men.
