Pray with the global church

God of Truth, we lift up the Uyghur community as they mourn the loss of Rahile Omer, a young life taken in unjust circumstances. Hear their cries for answers and justice. Strengthen the brokenhearted with Your presence, and show Your compassion to those who suffer in silence. In this land where oppression seeks to silence Your truth, reveal Jesus even to those who hold power over others. Disarm systems built on injustice and cruelty, and replace fear with peace. Let light shine in every dark place across Xinjiang. Almighty God, stretch forth Your hand to comfort and restore. We trust in Your unfailing love and justice, now and forevermore. Amen.
