Join Us in Prayer for Muslims During Ramadan 2025 Sign Up to Pray

North Africans in the Netherlands

Many years ago, Shafiq and Salma moved to Europe after fleeing their unsafe home country. Shafiq has been granted residency status, but Salma is still waiting to hear from the government if she can stay permanently. They wrestle with conflict and tension in their marriage despite having several children together. Shafiq and their oldest son decided to follow Jesus after having opportunities to hear the gospel. Salma continues to walk in her Muslim faith. She appreciates the community she has with other Muslim women from her home country. She describes herself as still seeking for answers and attends an outreach service at an Arabic fellowship once a month. She recognizes that faith is a choice each person must make on their own. Please pray for this family in their many needs. Pray for Salma to receive residency status, for there to be reconciliation in their marriage, and for Salma and the other children to believe in Jesus. Praise God that His Word does not return void (Isaiah 55:11)!
