Pray with the global church

King of Heaven, we give thanks for the release of these six Christian workers in South Sudan, acknowledging Your sovereignty over every nation and Your care for those who serve in Your name. Let their hearts be strengthened and renewed by this deliverance, and may they continue their journey with courage. Guard the roads they travel and establish peace where hostility has reigned. Open the hearts of those who took them captive; let them see Jesus as the way to life. May many come to know Him through this witness. We trust that You are able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine. For the glory of Christ and in His name, Amen.
