Heavenly Father, encourage our family in Kyrgyzstan. Give leaders an abundance of wisdom, strength and boldness as they navigate tighter controls, and help converts to persevere under huge pressure. Protect Your children, and galvanise and unite the church in its witness, leading many to You. We pray, too, for the authorities, asking that they would see believers not as a threat but an invaluable part of the country. Holy Spirit, have Your way in Kyrgyzstan. Amen.
