Day 1: The Horn of Africa Posted: 26 Feb 2012 10:00 PM PST During this Secret Church on Good Friday, April 6, we are focusing our prayer time on the people of the Horn of Africa. Over the next six weeks we will post information and prayer requests on this blog. We invite you to join us in learning about and praying for the people of the Horn. "The Horn" refers to a peninsula in east Africa that resembles the horn of a rhinoceros jutting hundreds of kilometers out into the Arabian Sea. The countries of the Horn are, for the most part, linguistically and ethnically linked together, displaying a complex pattern of interrelationships among the various peoples. These countries generally include Eritrea, Ethiopia, Djibouti, Somalia, and northern Kenya. With a combined population of 100 million people, there are over 160 different people groups in the region, including the Amhara, Tigre, Afar, and Somali. Ways to Pray Pray for men, women, and children in this region to be transformed by the gospel. Pray for the leaders and government officials of these five countries to act wisely and with integrity. Pray specifically for: President Guelleh and Prime Minister Dileita of Djibouti President Isaias of Eritrea President Girma and Prime Minister Meles of Ethiopia President Kibaki and Vice President Musyoka of Kenya Transitional Federal President Sharif and Prime Minister Abdiweli of Somalia Lift up Christian workers in the region. Ask God to strengthen and encourage them as they work in this dangerous and oppressive part of the world.
