Christian Youth Ridiculed by Peers

A young Christian continues to share her faith despite peer pressure. When she was 12, a Kazakh girl named Adiya organized a Christmas party to share the gospel with her Muslim classmates. Her invitations stating “A big star will be there!” caused some children to wonder if they would meet a celebrity. During the party, Adiya presented Christ as the star, taught Christian songs and gave everyone a wrapped copy of the Bible. While the attendees enjoyed themselves, some later ridiculed her and told her they threw the Bibles in the trash. The name-calling and ostracism hurt Adiya deeply, but she said, “I know I did the right thing. Those children had heard the gospel.” Today, Adiya still shares her faith whenever possible despite being shunned. She prays the opportunities will bear fruit and believes the event she organized years ago eventually will: “They heard the Word of God, and he will fulfill his purposes.”

Girl Assaulted, Parents Beaten for Faithful Christian Witness

Front-line workers report that a family in Bangladesh is struggling physically and emotionally after continual assaults. Luck, a faithful Christian evangelist, was confronted and warned to stop her gospel work. In 2025, a radical Muslim mob attacked her home, beat Luck and her husband, and burned 15 Bibles. In response, they gave thanks that they were counted worthy to suffer for Christ, and Luck boldly continued to spread the Good News in their village. Later that year, a group of Muslim men followed her 11-year-old daughter from school and assaulted her, leaving the whole family traumatized and afraid. Pray for healing and protection for Luck’s daughter as well as peace and spiritual renewal for Luck and her family as front-line workers serve them.

Audio, Print Bibles Help Displaced Christians

A pastor’s distribution of Bibles is encouraging displaced Christians. In northern Togo, radical Muslims have attacked villages and churches and killed Christians, displacing thousands. Kodjo, a local pastor, said his church is currently serving 200 of those displaced Christians. He often hears gunfire near his house and has witnessed Muslim militants kill people. One member of Kodjo’s church was shot in the arm while running away from Islamic terrorists who had dragged a man out of his home and killed him. His regional leader advised him to leave the area. “But he refused, as this is where God has called him to work,” a front-line worker said. Pastor Kodjo regularly distributes Bibles to bring hope to the community. “So many people were so excited to receive a Bible, especially the audio Bibles,” the front-line worker said. “These Bibles have been such an encouragement to the believers.”
