Hong Kong Fire

​

Urgent prayer for Hong Kong - November 26

At least 36 people have been killed in a major fire engulfing apartment blocks in the Tai Po district of Hong Kong, with 279 people not accounted for. 

They provide 1,984 apartments for some 4,600 residents, according to the 2021 government census.

The Home Affairs Department has since opened several community centres as temporary shelters, with some schools also made available for relocation. 

One survivor said the following: "I don't even know how I feel right now. I'm just thinking about where I'm going to sleep tonight because I probably won't be able to go back home."

Please pray all survivors will be found. Pray the firefighters can extinguish this fire quickly. Pray for all those traumatized by loss of family members.

Nigeria School Abduction

​Fifty of the 303 schoolchildren abducted from a Catholic school in north-central Nigeria’s Niger state have escaped captivity and are now with their families, the school authority said Sunday, as the pope called for the immediate release of those still missing.

A total of 253 schoolchildren and 12 teachers are still being held by the kidnappers. 

Nigeria has been reeling from a spate of attacks in the past weeks, raising tension in the West African nation grappling with widespread insecurity and religious violence.

Pray for Believers in Mozambique and DRC

​As the relentless massacre of Christians in Nigeria grieves thousands around the world, violence against believers in Mozambique and the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) is also surging after extremists affiliated with the Islamic State claimed responsibility for slaughtering Christians in the latest spate of jihadist violence. Between both countries, 20 Christians are reported to have been beheaded in recent weeks.

According to the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI), the Islamic State Central Africa Province (ISCAP) claimed responsibility for violent assaults on Christian villages in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), where 18 people were beheaded.

Pray for Sudan

​Prayer for Sudan - November 15

The ongoing civil war in Sudan, which began in April 2023, has resulted in an estimated more than 150,000 deaths over two and a half years. The conflict has spiraled into the world's largest humanitarian and displacement crisis, with millions facing famine conditions. 

More than 12 million people have been forced to flee their homes, creating the world's largest displacement. Over half of Sudan's population—more than 30 million people—needs humanitarian assistance.

Please pray for the displaced and for humanitarian aid get to the people. Pray for healing as many have been subjected to abuse, beatings, women and young girls raped. This must stop now!

Nigerian Crisis

​

Armed men attacked a Catholic school in a western region of Nigeria early Friday morning, kidnapping dozens of schoolchildren and staff. The incident happened at St. Mary’s School in the Papiri community, according to officials. Local media reports suggest 52 schoolchildren were taken.

The Niger State Police Command said the abductions occurred despite prior intelligence warnings. Military and security forces have been deployed to the area. This attack follows a similar incident on Monday in Kebbi state, where 25 schoolgirls were abducted. 

The perpetrators in this case are currently unidentified. But at least 1,500 students have been abducted in the region since Boko Haram jihadi extremists seized 276 Chibok schoolgirls more than a decade ago.
