- Supported Worker: E & J North Africa
- Details: Praise the Lord that J has continued to have good interactions with Zuzu and her kids. Keep praying for them. E and J traveled to the US at the end of February for an extended period because of visa complications. Their hope is to get new passports and visas and then to apply for residency again when they get back to their country in North Africa. Pray that all the paperwork will go through without problems and that they will be refreshed as they spend time with friends and family. Mali (Africa). Population: 25,198,822 Believers: 0.7%. Mali has experienced great upheaval in recent years. Since 2012, there have been three military coups. There is another ongoing conflict between the nomadic Fulani herdsmen and the farming tribes of the Dogon and Bambara. Meanwhile, the Islamic State has gained control of significant chunks of Mali’s southeast. All of these developments have spelled intensifying challenges for Christians. May the Prince of Peace prevail in a land crippled by violence! From Operation World DVD-ROM 2010 and www.operationworld.org
