Since the beginning of 2026, more than two dozen Christians, including converts and church leaders, have been arrested and detained without any charges in a Middle Eastern nation. “Family members haven’t been able to contact them,” said a Front-Line Worker, adding that at least three Christians disappeared without anyone knowing what happened to them. “The situation is bad. Families are struggling.”
The Front-Line Worker asks for prayer:
for the protection of those who have been arrested
for each person who has been detained and their families to sense God’s peace
that they will soon be released and permitted to continue their Christian activities.
