I realized this morning a mistake I made in my blog posting of yesterday. Pastor Saeed Abedini is in an Iranian prison, not in Iraq. Sorry for that slip. Those doggone “I” words. You can learn about and follow his plight, and have opportunity to do more at http://aclj.org/

I had said Randy and I found several means to learn about needs of our brothers and sisters around the world suffering for their faith so I thought I’d send a few links to websites which we use for informing ourselves about the persecuted church. I’m sure you have others.

Randy recently posted an article on facebook from the Compass Direct group and here is their website: http://www.worldwatchmonitor.org

I recently signed up to receive prayer alerts from Voice of the Martyrs at iCommitToPray  Their web address is https://www.persecution.com/ Voice of the Martyrs has been around for a long time.

Another which is not so much a persecution watch organization but a partnering ministry with believers ministering in “the hard places” reaching women and girls especially, and from whom we learn of great needs for which to pray and a means to get involved: She Is Safe, ‎ http://sheissafe.org/

I pray we will be blessings to others in many different ways this year and always. You have encouraged me. Thank you.
