Eritrean Police Arrest 32 Christians

Eritrea flag3/29/2018  Eritrea  (WWM)

Ten friends congratulating a newly married couple were among those arrested during a recent raid by authorities in Eritrea. Four Christians, including the newlyweds were split up and moved to Adi Abeito Prison following their arrest.  At the United Nations Human Rights Council, it was noted that more than 100 people were arrested in Eritrea in 2017 for practicing religions banned by the state.

Please pray…

  • Pray that the Lord will comfort, strengthen, and sustain those who are in prison for their faith.
  • Pray for God’s protection of the underground church in Eritrea.
  • Pray that the Christians will have wisdom and sensitivity to the Holy Spirit as they share their faith with others.
