Around the world, there are Christians who are being persecuted for their faith. Every day there are people who are harassed, arrested, and even killed because they seek to follow Jesus. We don't always realize it because where we live we face very little hardship because we are Christians. But, the Bible tells us that when one part of the body suffers, all parts suffer. In this lab we want to spend time praying for our brothers and sisters around world who suffer for their faith.

We will be praying for the following parts of the world, with people from each of these countries sharing some of their stories.

• September 30 – Burma/Myanmar

• October 7 – North Korea

• October 14 – Afghanistan

• October 21 – Somalia

Please continue to pray for these places throughout the week.
