On June 28th, a group of about 30 individuals descended on a house church, Jesus Witness Church’s, worship service in eastern Sri Lanka and demanded that the family stop the worship. From outside the house, a member of the group phoned the pastor and told him he was not allowed to hold Christian worship in their village. This form of harassment is common in Sri Lanka, and pastors must have perseverance as they minister.
Pray for this pastor and many others like him serving throughout the country. Pray that they will have the wisdom to handle such situations. Pray that they will be strengthened with all power, according to the Lord’s glorious might, to remain steadfast and patient (Colossians 1:11).
