And let's remember 
here is a grave concern for the safety of tens of thousands of refugees fleeing northern Mozambique in the wake of a brutal March attack by Islamic militants. Armed conflict has been a significant driver of the refugee crisis in Sub-Saharan Africa for the past two years. The country is over half Christian, so many of those who are running from the region are brothers and sisters in Christ.
In particular, women and children face poor living conditions, exploitation, lack of employment and learning opportunities in foreign countries. Still, their chance of survival is better than back home.
Those who cannot escape suffer even more dramatic consequences and jihadist groups kidnap hundreds of boys and girls. The boys are forcibly recruited into the militants' ranks, and the girls are "married" to the fighters or serve as slaves.
Churches and communities in Nampula, a\where many civilians are fleeing, are overwhelmed by the growing need among the displaced. Open Doors has worked through local partners to deliver urgent relief aid to over 300 internally displaced Christians. Efforts continue to work together with churches and existing networks to provide relief aid and trauma care support.
Many Mozambican refugees flee toward neighboring Tanzania but are turned back. Almost 10,000 have been forcibly removed from Tanzania so far this year.
"Those pushed back from Tanzania end up in a dire situation at the border and are exposed to gender-based violence and health risks," says a UN refugee agency spokesperson. "MAny sleep in the open in the cold night without blankets or a roof over their heads."
Open Doors has developed programs that can help the Body of Christ in Mozambique understand the persecution realities they face and respond with grace and compassion. Our priority has been to strenghten people to remain resilient during their persecution.
By strengthening the persecuted Church wherever they are, we know that it is an investment in the Body of Christ to remain salt and light, whether they choose to stay or are forced to leave.
You can join us in praying specifically for brothers and sisters in Mozambique.
Please pray God comforts and heals those traumatized by the violence they have seen or experienced, and that they reach out to their fellow refugees with grace and love.
Pray displaced Christians have the boldness to share the gospel message with those who do not know Jesus, so they, too will come to know Him as the Savior and protector.
Pray for churches and their leaders as they work tirelessly to support the growing number of displaced women and children. Ask God to give them the means, strength and wisdom to care for the widowed and the orphaned. (James 1.27)
Pray for Open Doors work in Mozambique, to support the Church. Ask that it be fruitful for the glory of God and His Kingdom.
Thanks so much for praying, God bless. From an Open Doors USA text alert.
