Prayer – Information – Action
Please join Aid to the the Church in Need in prayer this month and ask God to protect the Christian people in Pakistan who are suffering discrimination and oppression because of their faith:
Heavenly Father, you know all of those who suffer in your name.
We ask that you be with the Christians in Pakistan and encourage them to remain strong in their faith and trust despite physical and psychological abuse.
We remember those who are imprisonned for their faith. We especially remember Asia Bibi who still remains in jail with a death sentence hanging over her head as a result of Pakistan’s blasphemy laws.
Please comfort all those who have lost loved ones and who live in fear. Strengthen the Church leaders in Pakistan with wisdom and courage to bring truth justice and peace to their nation.
We also pray, most merciful and loving Father, that our brothers and sisters in Christ are blessed with the spirit of forgiveness for those who persecute them.
Amen.
