Nine houses, similar to this one, were burned down due to an ethnic conflict. |
Christian believers in a village of Assam, India, were planning to construct a church building until their neighbors began to oppose them. The Gospel for Asia-supported missionary who is pastor of the church requested prayer for his congregation as they strive to build a church to finally call their own and worship the Lord Jesus freely.
In another area of Assam, tension between two religious groups escalated after a 45-year-old woman was allegedly raped by a member of the opposing group. The local news reported one person was killed and nine houses torched in the aftermath of that crime.
Gospel for Asia-supported missionaries serving in both these regions of Assam request prayer for peace and protection.
