Pray For Christians On Trial in Sudan

Three Sudanese Christian leaders and a Czech aid worker are currently on trial in Sudan, facing charges that carry a potential death penalty.

The trial began in Khartoum on Aug. 21 for Rev. Hassan Abdelrahim Kodi, Rev. Kuwa Shemaal, Christian leader Abdelmoneim Abdelmoula and Czech national Petr Jasek. After their arrest in December, all four were accused of conducting intelligence activities and providing material support for rebels in Sudan’s South Kordofan region. Pray for a just verdict and their immediate release.

We encourage you to add your prayers for these four brothers online at www.iCommitToPray.com, and invite your Christian friends also to join this online prayer meeting on behalf of persecuted Christians. By registering at the site, you can receive a new prayer request each week via email. Share these requests with your pastor, your Sunday School class or other Christian friends.
