For the Sake of the Call The Church’s One Foundation My Hope is Built One vs. each

It is illegal to be a Christian in North Korea and Christians are often sent to labor camps or are killed if they are discovered. The conditions in this country have remained the worst in the world for Christians for the past 13 years.

PRAYER POINTS For the 50,000-70,000 Christians imprisoned in labor camps; ask God to sustain them. For the many Christians who don't have enough food to survive and are forced to flee to China. That Christians may stay strong in their faith under unrelenting pressure from government spies.

For the small number of Christians who have come to Jesus from the Islamic faith For restoration of a functioning government which will give freedom to all faiths An end to the civil war, famine and drought which has plagued the nation since 1991 PRAYER POINTS

For the thousands of refugees who have fled to northern Iraq or to surrounding countries For Christians who have been left homeless and without jobs That the Islamic State will be turned back and driven out of the Middle East PRAYER POINTS

For Christians who are displaced within the country or are refugees in camps outside of Syria For churches and other Christian organizations, who provide food, shelter and trauma counseling to the refugees That there would be an end to the horrific civil war which has been waged for approximately four years PRAYER POINTS

That the Afghan government will give freedom to worship to Christians and protect them from the Taliban That the small group of Christians will stand strong in their faith and not return to Islam under pressure That the constant instability and cycle of war over the last 30 years will end

PRAYER POINTS That the apostasy laws will be abolished For a halt to the closing of churches by the government That Christians around the Nuba mountains will be kept safe from bombings and find enough food
