On April 7, 2026, a group of Christians was injured while constructing a church building in western Ethiopia near the border with Sudan. A mob of Muslim extremists wielding machetes attacked the Christian men in an attempt to stop the construction of the church. The Christians had been warned not to build in the area but continued to do so, as Christians in that region do not have a place to gather. Though the men were wounded in the attack, the construction of the church continued.
Please pray…
Pray for their healing from their physical injuries and any emotional trauma they may have to deal with.
Pray that the Lord will give them the courage to continue building the church and witnessing for Christ.
Pray that the Lord will soften the hearts of the persecutors and draw them to Christ.
