Turkey Martyrs

Please Pray....

I watch this last night in bed and after hearing (and reading) all about our Turkey mission and the 3 churches our guys connected with I thought it would be great if we can be praying for Turkey as a church - and the persecuted church in general

On a related note, the word for “martyr” literally means “witness.” We understand it to mean “someone who is killed for their beliefs” but that was exactly what it was to be a witness in the 1st century. What a challenge for us in the West today. When we say “witness” (Acts 1.8 - you will be my witnesses/martyrs) we don’t think “there is a 90% chance I will die for standing tall for Jesus”

Be great not only to pray for Turkey but that we might learn from them too!!!
