Several new Christians on the island of Mindanao, the 2nd largest island in the southern part of Philippines, have been enduring various forms of persecution. Non-believers in their village are angry that Christians are gathering regularly with other believers.
Christians, being a minority in Mindanao, are often threatened with harm and many have been killed because of their faith.
Pray that these Christians will continue to grow in their faith and shine for Jesus in their village. Pray that God will strengthen them and give them courage and wisdom to navigate the challenges they are facing.
Pray that those who are persecuting them will see Christ in the lives of these Christians, hear the gospel and be moved to give their lives to Jesus.
