Pray for the Somalis

Today, our prayer focus is on the Somalis in the USA.  Almost all Somalis in America are refugees from the civil war that has plagued Somalia since 1991.  The Somali people are known for their warm hospitality and deep friendship.  They tend to settle in areas where they have been welcomed, and live in communities where Islam is emphasized.  Somalis, in general, are not open to other beliefs.

Pray that the peace of God would abound amongst the Somali people around the world.  Pray that the civil conflict that threatens to destroy Somalia would cease. Pray that the Somalis in the U.S. would learn of the surpassing value of the Kingdom of God (Matthew 13:44-46).

May God's richest blessings flow over you,

Jennifer
