Prayer Requests for the Week of May 10

Please pray…

• for barren Muslim women who are bowed low under the weight of shame in their culture and religion. May they come to know the One who longs to be “the glory and the lifter of [their] heads.” (Psalm 3:3)

• for a group of Christian women in a sensitive nation who were recently arrested for suspicion of evangelism among Muslims. Please pray for their well-being and safe extradition to their home country. May the Lord grant the communities of faith in both nations peace and boldness as they endeavor to glorify His Name.

• for Fatemeh “Mary” Mohammadi, a young Iranian Christian activist who has been recently convicted of charges for “Christian activities and disrupting the public order.” Please pray Mary will be encouraged and strengthened in the Lord and in the power of His might regarding her sentence and flogging. (This is a follow-up report to a request posted in February).
