Lift up Syria's significant Christian minority. Barnabas Fund report that a "series of kidnappings and brutal murders" have taken place recently. They cite a "reliable source" and relay fears of Syria going the way of post-Saddam Iraq, which has lost most of its indigenous Christian population. Although we don't make political comment on the situation in Syria, these latest events seem to confirm that Syrian Christians face an even bleaker future if/when Assad steps down. Let's stand with our brothers and sisters in prayer, asking for God to give them strength and hope at this dark time.

It's amazing to read messages like this one...
I hated the Bible all through my childhood… So I bought the Bible to discover and find the mistakes in it. However, while reading the Bible I found myself becoming a fan of it… Loving it... In addition, my emotions moved towards the Christians.
God can and will use His Word to change people's hearts. Praise Him and pray for this man who is currently being discipled.

Workers in the Gulf need wisdom as they correspond with a new believer in Saudi. The man wants to tell his family about his new faith. He is also keen to give Bibles to his friends.
While it is so great to see that this man has a living faith and wants to share it, openly being a follower of Christ in Saudi can have serious consequences. Those who counsel him need our prayers. While the Bible makes it clear that we are to publicly declare our faith, timing, location and audience must be considered carefully within a Muslim-majority context, and especially in a country like Saudi Arabia. Pray for wisdom!

Happy New Year from all of us at Arab World Media. We hope you are excited about what God has in store for 2012.
Please join us in praying for the following...
- In 2012 we seek to increase the number of spiritual enquirers coming from ten Arab world countries. This first quarter, we focus on Saudi Arabia and Libya. Please pray for us as we work to draw people in from these countries. May the Holy Spirit be working in many lives, preparing hearts and minds to receive and respond to the message of the gospel. (Join us in praying by signing up to receive TC12 emails.)
- Along with this project comes the launch of a mobile website and radio station. Please lift up all involved in making these work and pray that they would be a blessing to many who access the web via mobile phone.
- Pray for the audio series Christmas through Mary's Eyes, which was launched yesterday. (In the Middle East, Christmas is celebrated on 7 January.) A Saudi believer narrates this series in the Saudi Arabic dialect. May many be touched, not only by the words being spoken but by the voice speaking them. It is possible for a Saudi Arabian to become a Christian!
