In February 2024, Islamic insurgents with the self-proclaimed Islamic State (ISIS) in Mozambique destroyed 18 churches and killed many people in a sustained attack against Christians in the northern part of the country. The Islamists recorded videos of themselves destroying Christian symbols, including crosses. More than 700,000 people, most of them Christians, have been displaced by radical Islamic militants in the Cabo Delgado province of northern Mozambique. One Christian leader said that the church is currently experiencing “a moment of tribulation.”
Pray for the Christians in Mozambique as they go through this struggle. Pray for resources to be sent to them and to be used wisely.
Pray for the Lord's vengeance on ISIS and other radical Islamist groups (Psalm 94).
