Pray for the Persecuted Church
Today is the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church, and at GBC want to pray today for the Church in Iran and in China.
The church in China continues to endure harsh persecution in many areas, even as progress sweeps across the fields of industry, education, and technology in China. Still the church grows.
Iran is another huge nation where persecution by Muslim clerics has created a huge shift away from radical Islam among the populous, with tens of thousands becoming Christians in the past decade. Perhaps more Christians have been martyred in Iran than another other country in this century. Yet the church grows, both in Iran and among refugees in other nations. Learn more about the international day of prayer at Open Doors, Voice of the Martyrs or the IDOP page of the World Evangelical Fellowship.
And take some time today to pray for Christians being persecuted across the Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist and Communist world today.
