Supported Worker: E & J in North Africa
Details: Last month, two of four families on their team were informed that their residency is being rescinded and that they have 30 days to leave the country. It was said that it would happen to the third family as well. The officials said that they still have the option to apply for new visas from the US consulate, but they can’t get residency until this order is overturned. It is likely that E and J’s family will be included in this as well. Pray for favor with relevant officials as they try to appeal the decisions against their friends. Pray for peace which surpasses understanding as they face a lot of unknowns. Keep praying that God would open a door for them to have a long-term legitimate presence there for his sake. Nicaragua (Latin America). Population: 7,142,529 Believers: 29.8%. God brought many people to himself, even amidst the nation’s suffering. Volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and hurricanes led many to question life and eternity. War, conflict, and political struggles turned many toward the compassion of Christians and hope in Christ. Evangelicals grew from 2% in 1960 to 30% today, and growth continues. Pray for Nicaragua’s many evangelicals to be a genuine blessing to their nation.
