Pray with the global church

God of All Comfort, we bring before You the families of Benue State who long for their husbands and fathers, enduring years of separation and silence. You see Salome and Blessing in their waiting, and You know the weight they carry each day. Sustain these women with hope that does not disappoint, and meet them in every moment where faith feels thin. Make a way for truth to be revealed and justice to flow like water. Break through the silence surrounding these detentions, revealing Jesus to all who hold power over these families' fate. Strengthen Your church in Nigeria to stand as one, bearing witness to a love that is patient and kind even under trial. Our trust is in You alone, in the name of Christ Jesus our Savior. Amen.
