Update: Team in Turkey

Thank you for praying for our team in Turkey. God has answered your prayers in His sovereign grace and permitted the team to only receive a warning and not to lose their residency permits! Please continue to pray for the team as they now work to figure out how to legally own and operate their current business without work visas. They will be considering a wide range of options, so they're in great need of continued prayer for wisdom.

Special prayer for Turkey

Tomorrow (Thursday) is a big day for the team in Turkey. Two of the three men must appear at the police station at 9:00 a.m. (2:00 a.m. Eastern time). They will either be given a warning or the police will start a process of revoking their residency permits. In the latter case, the team has been given legal advice that they have the right to counter with a lawsuit to try to stop this process. Thank you for your faithful prayers, and please continue to pray during this important time.

Continue to prayer for team in Turkey

Please continue to pray for our team in Turkey.  The police have indeed shut down the building, at least for now.  But the even bigger prayer request is for our workers as they must appear before the police on Monday.  They don't know for sure what the reason is, but their concern is that it may relate to their residency permits.  Please pray that God would orchestrate the decisions of the local officials to bring glory to His great Name.  Also, please pray that our workers would be at peace and full of faith in the midst of this challenging situation.
