People
Group Focus:
Muslim
immigrants in Western Europe*
*Because
there are so many kinds of Muslim peoples from many different
countries, this people group focus is actually about a population
segment.
Many
Muslims from various predominantly Islamic countries are
pouring into Western Europe in search of a better life.
Some are immigrants, but many wait in the holding tanks
of crowded refugee centers, waiting to hear if they can
stay in their adopted country of choice.

Prayer
Points
- Pray that students will come to work
with the Muslim refugees in Western Europe. Ask the God
to send laborers to the harvest field!
- Pray for Christian workers in the
camps as they prepare their lessons and pray for those
who hear their lessons. May the eyes of their hearts be
opened to the Truth!
- Lift up the West Africans in France
who have recently received the "Jesus" film. Ask God to
open their eyes to the Truth as they watch it.
- Petition that as Christian workers in
Western Europe exhibit the Father's love among the Muslim
immigrants, many will want to experience a personal relationship
with Him.

School
Assignments for God's Glory
You
can make those term papers assignments and projects count
for eternity in heaven.
- If you have to write a paper for English
class about a personal experience, write about the mission
project you participated in last summer or during winter
break.
- If your history class requires a term paper
about an episode of history, write about the history of
a people group in Asia or Africa.
- If your sociology teacher wants you to
write about the "values" of a culture that cause
people to act a certain way, write about the values of
the Christian culture or the values of another people
group's culture.
The
research you do will help you in the future to share the
gospel around the world - it may even help a missionary
right now!

Persecuted
Church
Yemen
A
single Yemeni gunman entered the Baptist hospital compound
in Jibla, Yemen, on Dec. 20, 2002, and shot four American
hospital workers, killing three and injuring the fourth.
Hospital
administrator William E. Koehn, purchasing agent Kathleen
A. Gariety and physician Martha C. Myers were killed and
pharmacist Donald W. Caswell was injured in the early morning
attack.
The
Americans were involved in a meeting at the beginning of
the work day at the hospital when the gunman burst into
the room and opened fire.
Koehn,
Gariety and Myers were killed immediately. The gunman reportedly
then moved to another room, where he wounded Caswell. He
also aimed his gun at a Filipino hospital employee, but
the weapon did not fire.
A
35-year-old Yemeni man surrendered to hospital security
personnel and was taken into custody.
"People
here loved these people so much," Rock said. "Yesterday
Bill gave sacks of wheat and sugar to widows and divorced
women in city. He's been doing that almost every month with
relief donations we receive."
"The
people here who love us are decimated even more than we
are, because they don't see the big picture," she said.
"But the Bible says 'Precious in the eyes of the Lord is
the blood of his saints.' The church is built on the blood
of the martyrs, and any of those three people would have
gladly given their lives for that."
