After living in Istanbul for more than a decade, Richard and Connie returned to their home country in Central Asia. They are now adjusting to living with his parents, which is the custom of Muslims in many countries. Please continue to lift up this couple who are followers of Jesus. Pray for Richard and Connie’s marriage to survive the stresses of living with Richard’s parents. Pray for Connie to be patient and to find joy in serving her extended family. Pray that their marriage will be an example to other young families of Christ loving His church. Ask that Richard and Connie will gather people together to become a church in a country where the church is persecuted.
