“We can’t forget these people.  They are suffering.  The Christians continue to be targeted.  Please pray for them.  Father give them protection, strength, and courage.  You are not alone.  John 16;2 “ They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, a time is coming when anyone who kills you will think he is offering a service to God.  3.  They will do such things because they have not known the Father or me.”  Luke 21;19  “By standing firm you will gain life.”
