Jonah Abbay

Jonah lives in Eritrea. He is the brother of my housemate, Adanesh Abbay. Jonah is currently in jail because he is a Christian. In Eritrea, it is illegal to practice Christianity. Adanesh has also been arrested, but as she explain, God showed her favor and she was released after 3 weeks. Jonah has not yet been delivered from his jail sentence. He continues to love our Lord from prison.

Please pray for Jonah. Please pray for the persecuted church in Eritrea. Their suffering is real. Their families are just like our own. Jonah is a brother and a son.

Thank you so much for your prayers, my friends. May our Lord continue to grow your love for Him and your desire to be in prayer...
