"How long, O Lord?" - The cry of the saints from under the altar. (Revelation 6)

Pray for the judge presiding over the assault case involving a female tentmaker in the AP. Please pray for justice to be served. Pray too that upon his eventual release this Saudi man will be restrained from hurting other women in the future.

Pray for Emir Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa, the ruler of Bahrain. Pray that he would rule his country justly and preserve the freedom currently held by Christians to worship. Pray for the majority Shiite population that they would hear the Good News of Jesus Christ.

Pray for National single MBBs (mostly men) to be determined in spite of family pressure to marry only a believer, and in the meantime to grow spiritually, financially and in taking responsibility.

Pray for the upcoming Marriage Course at the expatriate church. Pray for strengthening of Christian marriages and relationships in this dry country. Pray that those attending would be blessed and strengthened in their marriages and would, in turn, have a stronger "base" from which to reach out to others.

Please pray for the National believers during this month of Ramadan that they will be able to challenge and raise issues within their families that will question the strict religious practices which are largely ignored during the other 11 months of the year.

Please pray for a seeking National woman in our city who has been deeply wounded by her husband taking a second wife. May she be comforted by the one who knows her best and help her to see the truth of the situation.

Please pray for a young Muslim woman who wants to meet weekly with a missionary and be taught the Bible, and another who had been zealously pursuing the Truth but has now is apparently being restrained from contact with Christians.
