Pray with the global church

Faithful Shepherd, we lift up the young girl missing in Pakistan, and we cry out for Your justice in her situation. Her family searches in fear and anguish, and we trust that You see her, even in hidden places. Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves and defend the rights of the poor and needy. Establish Your protection around her, and bring her safely back to her family. Reveal Jesus to those who have taken her, and dismantle the chains of trafficking that threaten her life. Strengthen the believers in Pakistan, that they may be a light in dark places and a voice for the voiceless. In the name of our Lord Jesus, who brings freedom to the captives, Amen.
