Urgent Prayer for Syria

The situation in Syria is getting worse!

A Catholic priest told us that since the army pulled out of the city, according to the Arab counsel agreement with Syria, that armed civilians are all over the streets. The armed people, who are believed to be Sunni Muslim fanatics, have their own checkpoints in the streets of Homs. They stop people and check for their ID. To other than Sunni Muslims they say ‘this is our land’ and a believer reported that two Christians are killed. The priest says it is a nightmare for them in Homs and that they cannot leave their homes.

Another pastor in Homs was threatened by fanatics. The fanatics said he had reported information about them to the government. He fled Homs for his own safety. The security camera’s of the church are destroyed. The congregation now sometimes come together for a service in another church.

A local believer cries out: “Syria needs more prayers, now please!”
