Authorities, under pressure from religious extremists, ordered the destruction of a church in Karnataka State, India, in March this year.
The church was demolished and the pastor and a number of church members were arrested for alleged document discrepancies. The pastor is refuting these allegations, stating that all necessary building permits were in place.
Lord we pray that this matter will be resolved quickly and peacefully. We pray that no formal charges will be filed against these 11 Christians and they will be released soon.
We pray that these believers and their respective families will not fear but will continue to trust that their sovereign God is in control of the situation. We also pray that God will provide the finances and alternative premises for the congregation to meet for worship.
Please feel free to share this prayer request.
