Center Barnstead Christian Church


Submitted By Bonnie Williams
Iraq – Seven Christians Killed in Mosul; Christian Persecution Intensifies Across China; Afghanistan – Taliban Kills Christian Aid Worker; Saudi Arabia – Saudi Man Killed Daughter for Converting to Christianity; ERITREA – Students Imprisoned in Shipping Container, Bibles Burned


Do the true headlines above take you by surprise? Are you aware that Christians around the world are being persecuted daily for their faith in Jesus Christ? Do you know that when asked about their greatest need they say it’s prayer for them to be strong in their faith and to be good witnesses for Jesus Christ no matter the circumstances?


Center Barnstead Christian Church has set aside this Sunday, January 4, 2009, to pray for Christians around the world living daily under the threat of persecution. These believers risk discrimination, imprisonment and even death because of their active witness for Jesus Christ. Scripture instructs us to remember those in bonds as though we were bound with them. (Hebrews 13:3) This special day of prayer and remembrance is one of the ways we do that. We also encourage prayer for the souls of the oppressors, the nations that promote persecution, and those who ignore it.


Our hope is that this day of prayer will encourage people to be active all year long in prayer and support for our persecuted brothers and sisters. You are invited to join us as we pray for continued boldness and courage for believers as they share the gospel and for hearts to be softened to the truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We will only be having one service this Sunday beginning at 9:30 AM. Center Barnstead Christian Church is located next to Barnstead’s Town Hall on Route 126.
