Intervene on their behalf!

You have likely already seen this in the news ...

“Mutinous soldiers in Niger … overthrew the democratically elected government of President Mohamed Bazoum,” reported the Associated Press, “adding to a growing list of military regimes in West Africa’s Sahel region and raising fears of regional destabilization.”

• “The Sahel, the vast arid expanse south of the Sahara Desert, faces growing violence from Islamic extremists, which in turn has caused people to turn against elected governments.”

Further, International Christian Concern says:

"Across northern and western Africa, instability and insecurity persist, from insurgent groups operating in Nigeria to the full-scale civil war in Sudan. Amid protracted regional conflicts, the church in affected countries faces increased likelihood and severity of hardships as the situation devolves."

So much uncertainty … leaving many with so little hope.

But today, you can intervene.

Your generous gift right now will send urgently needed aid to our Christ-centered partners in the field that work with individuals and families in Africa who are at constant risk from violence, displacement, and worse.

You’ll also provide emotional encouragement, trauma counseling, and spiritual support to people who face loss amid civil unrest and Islamic oppression like what’s happening in Niger, Sudan, Nigeria, and elsewhere.

The gift you are led to give today will help LRI’s partners minister to the needs of believers who are suffering intensely dangerous situations.

And your prayers on their behalf are key, as well.

Thank you for your compassion and generosity.

I know God is using you and your willingness to touch lives for His glory and for the persecuted church’s good.
