Fenny’s life was forever changed after a May 2018 church bombing in Surabaya, Indonesia, but she continues to heal spiritually and physically. She shared how, through the recovery process, the Lord gave her purpose and helped her understand her worth in God’s eyes. She has undergone years of medical treatment and is making much progress. Fenny is now able to drive herself on a motorbike, something that would have been impossible for her even a year ago. Praise God for this progress, and pray that Fenny and the other bombing survivors would continue to experience God’s healing in their minds and bodies.

The Algerian Christian community has struggled in multiple ways since the government forced numerous churches across the country to close in 2017. While some Algerian followers of Christ have faced governmental pressures, others, especially those who have left Islam to follow Christ, are dealing with opposition from their own families. Malak is an Algerian Christian who is currently facing both pressures. After he committed his life to Christ, his wife divorced him, and he rarely sees his children. He has also been accused of proselytizing, which can lead to a jail sentence. Pray for Malak and other Algerian Christians like him, and pray that Algerian Christians will have greater freedom to meet and worship and speak about their faith.

Even though Ibrahim came to faith in Christ more than 50 years ago, he has lost none of his zeal for ministry. He has been a passionate evangelist, sharing the gospel among ethnic Somalis and planting more than 20 churches. His ministry work has come at great cost, however, as most Somalis believe that to be Somali is to be Muslim. Therefore, those who faithfully serve Christ or convert from Islam in Somali communities face severe persecution. Still, Ibrahim has been a bold witness for Christ among Somalis despite risks. After front-line workers visited Ibrahim for a time of fellowship, they gave an encouraging report on his condition, including notable improvement in his hearing ability. “As always, he still longs to go for outreach and ministry work in the hostile areas he labored in when he was younger, not considering the health condition that has come with his old age,” a worker shared.
