April 6
A Muslim refugee from Syria came to the Netherlands after concluding that his wife and children, kidnapped by Islamic State terrorists six years prior, were no longer alive. “He would cry a lot and feel very guilty because he could not help his family,” the native ministry leader said. “He also was battling with hate, and he hated Islam, hated the Koran.” A local Christian worker told him how God cares enough to sacrifice His Son, and the refugee put his faith in Christ. He recently learned that his family is alive, and workers are helping to arrange for them to immigrate. Donations of $35 or $70 are sought for outreach to refugees. Pray for provision for workers at three Arabic-speaking churches.
