Pray for North Africa

This week we will pray for the Church in North Africa to be strengthened by the Holy Spirit. For thousands of years, believers have lived, loved Jesus, congregated, shared their faith and been persecuted in North Africa. We will pray for the Church; for those who have been Christians for generations, those who have just started to follow him, and for those who have fallen away.

Romans 12:9-14 CSB

⁹ Let love be without hypocrisy. Detest evil; cling to what is good. ¹⁰ Love one another deeply as brothers and sisters. Take the lead in honoring one another.¹¹ Do not lack diligence in zeal; be fervent in the Spirit; serve the Lord.¹² Rejoice in hope; be patient in affliction; be persistent in prayer. ¹³ Share with the saints in their needs; pursue hospitality. ¹⁴ Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse.
