Prayer request from our team in Aleppo

Author: Bible Society, 8 December 2016

Our team in Aleppo are still operating despite the huge conflict in the city, which is under siege. 

Many people, both Christians and Muslims, come to the shop to buy Bibles and ask what the Bible has to say about the suffering they face. There is huge uncertainty as conflict continues and many live in fear of what tomorrow may bring.

Please pray for:

  • peace and hope amid increasingly heavy shelling and uncertainty
  • protection during a cold winter without water, electricity or fuel
  • for the arrival of Bibles on their way from Lebanon.

Thank you for joining us in prayer. If you'd like to make your prayers 'visible' to encourage others, please post a prayer on our prayer tree.
