A PRAYER REQUEST urges the remnant body of Christ to stay put. "The big concern and the big temptation is to flee. That's not wholly without merit. But if all the believers leave an area, there's no Gospel witness left there," says Glenn Penner, VOM Canada.

CHRISTIANS ARE AWAITING signs of what the future may hold. There's much to pray about in the days ahead. "Things have settled down to a degree. Unfortunately, the group that has taken control, Hamas, is a far more militant organization, and time is only going to tell just how much they're going to implement Sharia law in Gaza.  Al-Qaeda Deputy Ayman Al-Zawahiri Calls on Hamas to Enforce the Shari'a in Gaza. Things are certainly going to be better for believers in the West Bank, which is under the control of Fatah." Pray that Christians will be free to worship in Gaza without fear. Pray for peace in the region. SOURCE: Stacy L. Harp PersecutionBlog ::
