Prayers For Hard Times

The news of the world over the last month has been very difficult to watch. The stories from Japan, Yemen and Libya seem to pile misery upon misery. No wonder that anyone who can seems to want to get out of those dangerous places as soon as they can.

One story I heard recently reported Christian leaders in Libya who say they have no intention of leaving the country. Religious sisters working in hospitals in the eastern coastal religion have been tending the wounded. The Catholic Church is the largest group in Libya but other churches are also living their ministry in the midst of much suffering and uncertainty. So our prayers are with Catholic, Anglican, Greek Orthodox, Coptic Orthodox and our Pentacostal brothers and sisters.
