    Intercede with Us for the Muslim World!

    The Lord is gracious and merciful, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. The Lord is good to all, and his mercy is
    over all that he has made (Ps 145:8-9, ESV).
    Thank God today for His mercy extended to us, even while we were yet sinners. Pray that Muslims will also see and accept
    the grace and mercy He offers to them.

    Today's Prayer Requests: From Students, Alumni, and Missionaries


    BENIN: A missionary serving here requests prayer for pastors who are planting churches in the north, that they will
    continue to have courage to announce the gospel of Jesus Christ. Churches continue to be established in spite of
    opposition.
    WAAST: A new semester begins next week for WAAST's BTh students. Please pray as Jumaa Prayer meetings resume
    every Friday. Pray that, as they intercede for Muslims, students will sense a growing burden to reach them. Pray for
    those students who come from Muslim families and who work in Muslim areas. May the Lord give them fresh insight
    and encouragement as to how to minister and show His love.

    In the News
    Praise the Lord for the release of two South Sudanese pastors, who were held in Sudan for more than 7 months on
    false charges of spying and breaching the peace. One pastor had traveled to Khartoum and preached at a local
    church when he was arrested in December 2014. The second, concerned about his whereabouts, followed in January
    and was arrested. Lack of evidenceand many prayers!led the judge to drop the serious charges and free the men
    due to time already served. Please pray for the Khartoum Bahri Evangelical Church and other churches in Sudan that
    are under government pressure to give up their land. For more details on this story, see http://bit.ly/1gMpTAu.

    From Global Initiative*


    Intercede for the country of Brunei; 66% of its 420,000 people are Muslims. The government faces increasing
    influence from Islamic extremists. This small nation is located on the island of Borneo, in Southeast Asia. Led by a
    sultan, Brunei's citizens have lived under sharia law since 2011. Most believers are expatriates, and outreach to
    citizens is illegal and church activities restricted. Please pray that the Holy Spirit will strengthen Christians, guide
    them in personal evangelism, and reveal Jesus to seekers. For more information and prayer requests, see
    http://bit.ly/1ga0eRp.

    For Muslim Women**


    Please pray for A. and other Christian girls like her, who struggle to follow Jesus in their marriages to Muslim men.
