Prayer Mountain!

Pakistanis pray for their people:
Prayer meetings are currently taking place in Pakistan for those who have been attacked as a result of their faith in Jesus Christ. Unreported in the press, the Christians in Pakistan are being brutally treated only because they love and serve Jesus. Many young men have been killed and even young women and children have lost their lives as a result of the unprovoked attacks. Now families are homeless, churches are in ashes and Christians live in fear.

Mission International is raising support for those who have been left destitute in the aftermath of the attacks and so if you can help please click here, or use the PayPal link at the top right of this page to send your support. Many Christian communities around the country are in fear of further reprisals but they continue to pray that God will hear their cry for safety and the freedom to share the Good News with others.
Women are particularly at risk. The perpetrators of these horrific crimes against humanity seem to consider that Christian women are just as guilty of spreading the Gospel as men and as such should be punished just as severely. Please pray that women and children are protected from this brutality and that the vulnerable will see God's protection and comfort.
Due to the troubles many children are now on the streets and need help, the Mountain of Jesus ministry is set to help and Mission International hopes to partner with them to alleviate the trauma to these young ones and give them a meal in their belly and a roof over their heads.
