Day 29: Sheik Mohammed

Posted: 29 Mar 2012 11:00 PM PDT

During this Secret Church on Good Friday, April 6, we are focusing our prayer time on the people of the Horn of Africa. Throughout the weeks leading up to Secret Church 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.

Sheik Mohammed has many relatives all around the world and in his hometown. When he became a follower of Jesus, he placed expensive phone calls to his family and friends, who were stretched across the globe. Their response was one of horror. He has now lost contact with several daughters because they want nothing to do with their believing father. A brother made so much trouble for him that Sheik Mohammed and his family had to move to a new neighborhood to avoid persecution. But when Sheik Mohammed made the 60-mile journey by foot to tell a sister the Good News, she believed, along with many others in her village! Now there are more than 25 baptized believers, and Mohammed faithfully trains them to share their faith with others.

Ways to Pray

  • Please pray for Sheik Mohammed and his family. Ask the Father to change his non-believing family members' hearts so that they, too, will accept the free gift of salvation.
  • Lift up the new believers in the sister's village. Ask that they, too, will spread the Good News to all the people whom they know.
