Please pray for a family that is facing a very stressful and demanding time. Mohmood and his wife Kobab, children, Sundra, Asad and Humza. They are asylum seekers who escaped to the UK from serious problems in Pakistan and through trial and tribulation, gave their lives to Christ. After 4 years, they have now been refused leave to stay in the UK. Mohmood believes that if they return to Pakistan they will have their lives threatened because of their belief in our Saviour. Their freedom of worship will be severely restricted. Their extended family has put a fatwah out against them because of their baptism into our faith. As refused asylum seekers they are in daily fear of being made homeless as their financial support has ceased and they have to leave the supported accommodation. The possibility of immediate deportation also exists. I pray that our Father will nurture His children until they are stronger in their faith and can discern Your path. I pray that Your Spirit will comfort them in this their hour of need. I have hope in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men and especially of those who believe. Amen
