November Prayer for the Persecuted Church | Somalia
This month, we’re praying for the persecuted church in Somalia, one of the most dangerous places in the world to follow Jesus. Pray for protection and hope for believers forced to worship in secret, and trust God to sustain His church, bring healing to traumatized hearts, and shine His light where darkness seeks to prevail.
