Lift up New York City churches in your prayers. The city recently passed a bill that will ban churches from renting out school buildings to hold their weekly services. 68 churches are forced to relocate in a city where rent is high and space is limited. Church leaders and elected officials marched across the Brooklyn Bridge to City Hall in protest of this bill that will go into effect February 12. Keep them in your prayers as they fight for their right to hold their weekly services in school buildings.

Remember the Ethiopian Christians imprisoned in Saudi Arabia we've been posting about? We've put together a video of an interview between Voice of America and Helen Tamene Gebe, one of the prisoners, as well as our own Jonathan Racho. Helen tells the gripping and heart-wrenching story of their arrest, imprisonment, and mistreatment in Saudi Arabia. Follow the link at the end of the video to sign our petition for their release from their imprisonment. Also, please pray for Helen and the rest of our Ethiopian brothers and sisters who are suffering in prison.
