Jumaa Prayer
for the Muslims of Africa and beyond
Intercede with Us for the Muslim World!
He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance (2Pe 3:9b). Let us show patience in our prayers and in our lives before our Muslim neighbors, for their salvation and for God's glory.
In the News
NIGERIA: Attacks against churches and believers continue in Nigeria. In a suicide attack this past Sunday, a church at a military barracks in Jaji, north of Kaduna City, was rammed by a bus containing bombs. Minutes later, a car with explosives followed. At last count, 15 have died, including the 2 pastors, who were students at a Baptist seminary in Kaduna. (For more information, see http://tinyurl.com/cdtfv7z.) On Monday night, gunmen drove through a predominately-Christian village near Jos, in central Nigeria, shooting at least 10 dead. Pray for the pastors, churches, and Christians in Nigeria, that the Lord will help them to stand firm for Him and fill them with His peace. Pray that those who persecute them will come face to face with the living God and find their true Savior.
