North Africans in the Netherlands

The women’s eyes twinkled with excitement as they shared in detail about what church looked like in their home country. They described the way candles were used and the various traditions. They miss their church community, but they are thankful to feel safer in their new home. Sumayya and her mother are refugees living in the Netherlands. They currently reside in a refugee camp and await government appointments that will determine if they will receive residency or not. They love God deeply, but from their religious background, they believe that you are a Christian if you are born and raised in that community. Please pray for these women to receive residency soon. Pray for them also to grow in their love for the Lord and a deeper understanding of the good news, one that only comes through a personal relationship with Jesus.
