Dear Church of the Apostles,
Our brothers and sisters in Christ in Nigeria are facing persecution. Our communion, the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA), and our Diocese, Christ Our Hope (ADHOPE), have asked us all to pray.
Please join those around the world praying for the Church in Nigeria. Because we are told to love our enemies, we also pray for God to miraculously change the hearts of the persecutors, the Fulani and Muslim Tribesmen. And we pray for greater unity and support in the Church around the world.

As you pray for the Church and the world, continue to pray for Mitchell and the CHS team on mission in India; for Hands Offering Hope led by Amy and Adiel, in Chiquila, Mexico; for June, Dawn, and Pria as they re-enter life here in Fairfield County after being on mission in the DR; and for Rebecca, Amelia, and Harrison who arrived home late last night after being on mission in the Appalachian region of Tennessee.
We look forward to getting reports from everyone during Sunday services later in the summer.
Peace and Hope,
Brian+
