Missions Day

Tomorrow is Missions Day at church. We’ll be having a day to meet some of the missionaries that we support. We start out in the morning with breakfast and then we’ll hear from the missionaries about their lives in other countries. We are so used to being able to worship as we like here in the United States, but there are still countries that murder people for practicing their faith.

I am shocked and horrified to read about how difficult the lives of some of our Christian missionaries are. There have been times of danger, fear and sadness on their parts. When we get reports from them, we pray and try to get as much information as possible. This can be difficult at times because the governments may not allow communication to others especially to anyone in the US.

Please pray for our missionaries who trust God with their very lives when they visit countries that persecute Christians. Persecution.org is a website for this type of information and can be helpful for your own knowledge and for your prayer life.
